Home/Tours/Vietnam & Thailand: A Family Trip in 16 Days
About This Tour
A 16-day family itinerary through Ho Chi Minh City, the Mekong Delta, Phong Nha's caves, Hoi An's farms and fishing villages, and an overnight Ha Long Bay cruise, before flying on to six days in Thailand for Bangkok's temples and the Phi Phi Islands. Nine nights of this trip are in Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh City, Phong Nha, Hoi An, Hanoi, and an overnight Ha Long Bay cruise), before flying on to Thailand for the final six nights covering Bangkok and the Phi Phi Islands — every night's hotel is confirmed in whichever country you're actually in that day. Private transfers run in an air-conditioned car throughout, with a shuttle bus to Ha Long Bay and a boat transfer to the Phi Phi Islands.
