Vietnam Vacation on Beach

Start your private tour of Vietnam in the atmospheric capital city of Hanoi. Here the streets buzz with motorbikes and street vendors, yet peaceful parks and lakes fill the city. Located about 3hour drive from Hanoi, Halong Bay is one of Vietnam's most stunning physical areas: Dramatic limestone karsts are explored as you take an overnight cruise upon the crystal waters of the Bay. Move to the south, everyone aslo knows China Beach in Danang. For a decade the elegant Furuma Resort Danang has helped the China Beach firmly on the travel map. This award-winning resort is set in manicured grounds with two pools, plenty of green and a broad ocean frontage. And next, Nha Trang has a split personality. One takes the form of a smaller Danang – a bustling Vietnamese city humming with commerce but blessed with access to a beautiful beach.
