Collette has launched a new tour exploring Southeast Asia, a 12-day trip called Journey Through Northern Vietnam.
Starting at $2,999 per person, the itinerary visits Hanoi, Mai Chau, Ninh Binh and Ha Long Bay. Experiences range from visiting the home of a water puppetry artist to a food tour of Hanoi.
Travelers will take a boat tour through the UNESCO-listed Tràng An Grottoes, learn from a local family how to cook a traditional meal, sail overnight along Ha Long Bay, meet with a Vietnam war veteran, practice tai chi at sunrise, visit a floating fishing village and much more.
The trip begins and ends in Hanoi and offers an optional 5-night post-tour trip to Southern Vietnam for those who wish to extend their tour.
“This tour was designed to bring travelers closer to the heart of Vietnam — through shared meals, personal stories, and experiences that can’t be found in guidebooks,” said Diana Ditto, Vice President of Product Marketing and Growth Strategy at Collette. “Every stop on this journey reflects a commitment to responsible travel, where authentic connection and cultural respect come first.”
