The Indochina region, which includes Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam, has been growing in popularity in recent years and, along with it, a growing interest in family travel.
This 12-day journey covers four distinctly different stops in a well-balanced journey filled with ‘wow’ moments. The trip kicks off with a two-night stay in Hanoi, Vietnam’s vibrant capital, to explore the highlights and hidden places on the outskirts of town. Then it’s on to Halong Bay (Lan Ha Bay) for an overnight cruise followed by three nights in Hoi An to enjoy a bit of culture, adventure and the beach.
In addition to using family-friendly hotels and thoughtfully-paced travel schedules, the programmes include special experiences that are tailored for younger travelers. Hands-on cultural learning activities, soft adventures, local encounters and more bring the destinations to life, fostering a connection with the country and its people in a way that is educational yet exciting.
