Vietnam travel itinerary

Vietnam is a country of timeless charm, but there is one time of year when the nation transforms completely. It is a season when the chaotic traffic of the cities subsides into a peaceful hush, when the streets are painted in vibrant shades of red and yellow, and when the smell of burning incense and savory sticky rice cakes fills the air.

Vietnam calls to the soul of the wanderer. Whether it is the limestone pillars of Ha Long Bay rising from emerald waters, the chaotic yet charming energy of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, or the serene lanterns glowing in Hoi An, this S-shaped country is a bucket-list destination. But before you can sip egg coffee by Hoan Kiem Lake or trek through the terraced rice fields of Sapa with Golden Trail Travel, there is one administrative hurdle you must clear: The Vietnam Electronic Visa (E-visa).

Hanoi is not just a city; it is a living, breathing sensory experience. For many, the first encounter with Vietnam’s capital is a whirlwind of motorbikes, colonial architecture, and the omnipresent, intoxicating aroma of street food. To truly understand the heart of this 1,000-year-old city, you must step off the sidewalk, sit on a tiny plastic stool, and let your taste buds lead the way. A Hanoi Street Food Tour is more than just a meal—it is an initiation into a culture where food is the language of love, history, and community.
