Family Holiday in Vietnam
Upcoming school holiday departures -

 

25 September/ 8 January

 

This program is intended for young families, or for those who want a relaxing break from every-day life. We have included short tours to the major sites and markets of Saigon and Hanoi, so as not to tire the younger family members and to provide opportunities to purchase jeans and Nikes at bargain rates. Also included are leisurely days on the beach at Nha Trang and at a resort-style hotel in the medieval town of Hoi An. You will find time to relax and unwind while the kids splash in outdoor swimming pools. In our view- Fiji eat your heart out. This is so much better.
