Individual tours

Hidden lanes in Hanoi, emerald bays, luminous rice terraces and lantern-lit evenings in Hoi An: a private Vietnam tour allows you to experience the country in depth, in comfort and entirely at your own pace.

Our Vietnam private tours are created for discerning travellers who value personal service, meaningful experiences and seamless organisation. Rather than following a fixed group itinerary, you will enjoy a tailor-made journey shaped around your interests, preferred travel style and pace.

Whether you travel solo, as a couple, with family or with friends, a private driver and personal guide will accompany you throughout your tour. This allows you to explore Vietnam with confidence while retaining the freedom to pause, linger and enjoy spontaneous discoveries along the way.

Highlights of a Tailor-Made Vietnam Tour

Hanoi – Timeless Traditions and Contemporary Life

In Hanoi, ancient temples and French colonial architecture stand alongside lively markets, creative cafés and modern neighbourhoods. Wander through the atmospheric lanes of the Old Quarter, meet local craftspeople and discover the flavours of the Vietnamese capital.

Your private guide will introduce you to celebrated landmarks as well as quieter places that many visitors overlook.

Halong Bay – Vietnam’s Legendary Seascape

A cruise through Halong Bay is one of Vietnam’s most memorable experiences. Thousands of limestone islands rise from emerald waters, creating an almost otherworldly landscape.

Enjoy the scenery from the privacy of an elegant cabin. For a quieter experience, consider cruising through the less-visited Lan Ha Bay or Bai Tu Long Bay.

Northern Vietnam – Rice Terraces and Mountain Landscapes

Beyond the cities, northern Vietnam reveals a more remote and traditional side of the country. Mai Chau, Pu Luong, Sapa and Ha Giang offer sweeping rice terraces, dramatic mountain scenery and small rural communities.

Guided walks and thoughtfully arranged encounters provide respectful insights into the cultures and everyday lives of northern Vietnam’s ethnic minority communities.

Huế and Hoi An – Imperial Heritage and Lantern-Lit Evenings

The former imperial capital of Huế is renowned for its historic Citadel, elaborate royal tombs and distinctive cuisine. Farther south, Hoi An enchants with beautifully preserved merchant houses, intimate galleries and an elegant riverside setting.

As evening falls, countless lanterns cast a warm glow across the Old Town. Cooking classes, cycling excursions through the surrounding countryside and boat trips on the Thu Bon River add another dimension to your stay.

Ho Chi Minh City – Energy, History and Modern Vietnamese Style

Ho Chi Minh City combines colonial architecture with innovative dining, contemporary design and unmistakable urban energy. With your private guide, discover historic landmarks, colourful markets and fascinating neighbourhoods beyond the usual visitor routes.

The Mekong Delta – Life Along the River

In the Mekong Delta, daily life unfolds along a vast network of waterways. Travel by private boat through tranquil canals, visit orchards and family-run workshops, and stay in a refined riverside lodge.

These carefully chosen experiences offer an authentic view of one of Vietnam’s most distinctive regions.

Vietnam’s Most Beautiful Beaches

Complete your journey with a few relaxing days beside the sea. Depending on the season, excellent choices include Hoi An, Quy Nhon, Nha Trang, Con Dao and Phu Quoc.

We will recommend a beach resort that complements your itinerary, travel dates and personal preferences.

When Is the Best Time to Visit Vietnam?

Vietnam stretches across several climate zones. Consequently, weather conditions vary considerably between the north, the central regions and the south. There is no single best time to visit the entire country.

When planning your journey, we consider your chosen destinations, preferred travel dates and personal interests. We then create a route that suits the season while incorporating the experiences that matter most to you.
