Vietnam

A trip to Vietnam offers a diversity of experiences that is hard to match. The country combines spectacular landscapes, a millennia-old cultural heritage and a vibrant daily life that captivates every visitor.

On the cultural side, highlights include the Complex of Monuments of Hue, the Ancient Town of Hoi An and Ha Long Bay, all of them declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites. In the north, you can explore Hanoi, with its blend of tradition and history, or discover the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon), where modernity and colonial past intertwine.

Nature is another of the country’s great attractions: the landscapes of Sapa, with its rice terraces set between mountains, invite you to go trekking and interact with local ethnic communities. Further south, the Mekong Delta fascinates with its navigable canals, floating markets and rural life centered around the water. And along the entire coast, from beaches washed by the East Sea (also known as the South China Sea), visitors find perfect settings to relax, go diving or enjoy water sports.

Vietnamese cuisine is a journey in itself. Each region has its own specialties: pho in Hanoi, bánh mì in Hoi An, bún bò Hue in Hue, and the fresh flavors of the markets in Saigon. Eating in Vietnam means discovering aromas and textures that reflect its cultural fusion and the richness of its local products.
