The one we went on was booked by a friend and was ‘Indochina Junk’s Red Dragon tour’, unfortunately still a bit ‘tourist trappy’ in my opinion. I found that a shorter 2-day tour also would have been sufficient for seeing this area, I actually thought exploring the northern part of Vietnam in Sapa was worth spending more time in.

Great post!

You mentioned you used a private tour for Ninh Binh, do you know what company you booked with for this?

Much prefer private compared to group to make it feel less tourist trappy.

Maybe Hoi An is the best one. From this place you can visit Danang or Hue imperial city via Hai Van Pass. Thanks your post!

Ooh that’s tough! Hoi An might have been my favorite. As for Hanoi and Ha Long Bay – I really enjoyed Ha Long Bay’s landscapes but the tours were very ‘touristy’ for me. Hanoi is a fun city but not as beautiful as Hoi An. If you want to add more landscapes/nature, Ninh Binh outside of Hanoi is a great day trip, otherwise I’d say consider Sapa since it’s so unique. Hope that helps!

Vietnam looks absolutely amazing!! I’ll be going there in April with 2 friends but we only have about 7 days. I was originally thinking Hanoi, Ha Long Bay and Hoi an but now after reading your article I am thinking that we should change it. Which were your top 3 places, or how would you suggest we spend out 7 days in Vietnam? Any advice would be incredibly appreciated!

Hi Paige! Good question – I actually got my visa at the consulate in NYC but I used iVisa for Cambodia, and my friend (who traveled with me) used iVisa for both Vietnam and Cambodia. They were great – easy to communicate with and saved me an in-person trip, so I’d definitely use them for Vietnam next time.
