Ha Long Bay

Halong Bay is the most popular place in Northern Vietnam. This UNESCO heritage site attracts millions of tourists every year. Discovering the majestic islands of dragons and sailing through the stunning bay is a must when you are in Hanoi.

Sapa is very impressive with rice paddies, rivers, tea plantations, and local villages in the mountainous region. It is also a great place to learn about the culture and daily life of minority ethnic people. Recommend hiking into the local villages and staying overnight in homestays.
