Vietnam is a country of contrasts, from buzzing cities and serene landscapes to some of the best food you'll ever taste. Vietnam is a land where it feels like motorbikes outnumber the people; and one moment you're weaving through a sea of scooters and street food stalls, the next you're drifting past rice paddies and limestone cliffs. From the rural areas to Ha Long Bay, its natural beauty is just as memorable as its vibrant culture and history.

In this blog, I share highlights from my two-week trip, plus tips and insights to help you make the most of your own adventure. While seeing it all in a fortnight is impossible, Llama Travel has built a well-rounded itinerary that blends cities, nature, and local experiences. With Llama Travel, you can tailor your trip to suit your style: add extensions, join optional excursions, or explore independently. There’s no one right way to do it, just what works best for you.
