Beach Vacation 9 Days 8 Nights

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, Hoi An was once an important trading town and the traditional shop houses and small laneways giving visitors a glimpse in to Vietnam's past. Following all cultural exploration of Hoi An, sun-workshippers could hear for Cua Dai Beach which is four kilometers from the center of town. With its warm, lapis lazuli water, fine white sand and coconut palms, Cua Dai deserves its reputation as a tropical paradise. Whether you wish to explore Vietnamese culture or lounge by the sea, Cua Dai is not to be missed. Everyone aslo knows Sandy Beach in Danang. For a decade the elegant Furuma Resort Danang has helped the Sandy 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. Trained lifeguards and shallow waters make this a good spot for a family dip.
