Best Activities in Vietnam

What comes to your mind when you think of Vietnam? Believe it or not, there’s plenty of activities to do in Vietnam in addition to eating delicious food, visiting beautiful paddy fields and hanging out with locals. Get the most out of your vacation with our awesome suggestions.

  • Paddleboard in Mui Ne

    A mix between surfing and kayaking, paddle boarding is a great way to stay active, but more than that – it’s super fun! Mui Ne Bay is not very far from Ho Chi Minh City and it’s one of the country’s best beaches.
    So if you`re looking for a fun activity but also want to enjoy the sun and stunning landscape, paddle boarding is definitely something you need to try while you’re in Mui Ne.

  • Go diving in Phu Quoc

    If you’re dreaming about an island with palm trees, golden sands and turquoise water then you`ve pretty much imagined Phu Quoc.
    The true treasures of this island are hidden under the water, where the panorama bursts into a multitude of colors and corals. Up for some underwater fun? Go snorkeling or diving to check the gorgeous marine life found throughout the area.

  • Kayak around the islands of HaLong Bay

    HaLong Bay is one of the most visited areas in Vietnam and was named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Paddle your way through the little island known as “islets”, visit hidden caves and lagoons, see unspoiled beaches and floating fishing villages. All the activities above show us that kayaking is the best way to explore the breathtaking beauty of Halong Bay.

  • Cycle in Sapa

    The best way to explore Sapa’s green rice paddies is by bicycle. Rent a bike and let a local take you on a trip through the impressive Sapa’s landscapes. Farm fields, local villages, small streets cafes and authentic Vietnamese dishes, this place has them all!

  • Trek to the top of Mountain Fansipan

    Located in the Lào Cai Province in the Northwest of the country, Mt. Fansipan is the highest peak in Vietnam standing proud at 3143 m. A trek on the mountain will reward you with amazing views and access to some most beautiful and remote areas in the country. Ask a local for the best hiking route that fits your fitness level and trekking skills. Want to get your adrenaline kick? Then book this tour with a private mountain guide who can take you right up to the top. Alternatively, you can also take the cable car all the way up, just tell your private host what you’d like to do. Enjoy!

Great truely local experience

This trip is great if you want to step outside of Hanoi and experience the culture and food of a more rural Vietnam. The farms and market were very interesting to see, Manh was kind, and an amazing chef!

It was a very nice tour, very relaxed, no stress. We got a good idea how people live in Vietnam and were very glad to be invited in her house, where we had lunch. Thanks again.

Lovely afternoon activity

We spent a beautiful afternoon wandering the peaceful farms and then helping prepare and cook food in Mandy’s lovely home. The food was delicious. This was a great activity with kids aged 4 & 12
