Northern Vietnam surprises
Vietnam reveals some of its best qualities, and little are still known.
A short description
This is an unusual trip we offer in northern Vietnam, a discovery of fantastic landscapes and people who are still isolated.
Welcomed by villagers in the famous mountains of the north or in the plains of Tonkin, the population is happy and proud to be discovered by those who stop for a visit.
And, as few dare to do, we discover Halong Bay starting from the northern coast, stopping over the islands of the South China Sea and their wild beaches.
