I had yearned to go to Vietnam for years and the Exodus holiday did not disappoint. It was a whistle stop tour from north to south. The whole trip was very well planned and organised and our tour leader, Thang, was the model of efficiency and tact. From the bustle of Hanoi to the relative calm of Halong Bay, the pretty town of Hue on the Perfume River, Hoi An with its many tailors, Nha Trang, fast developing as a coastal resort, Saigon’s markets and mopeds and the backwaters of the Mekong Delta, there were so many diverse aspects that we couldn’t possibly have seen if we had travelled under our own steam. It is the first time that we have travelled with Exodus but I would recommend this trip to anyone interested in seeing as much as possible of the country and people in two weeks.
None Stop Action like a Die Hard movie A very nice tour that sometimes might seem too much for certain people. There is a lot crammed in so an extra two days would have been perfect. A few things here and there could be improved on but overall it was a fantastic holiday.
A journey through a beautiful country This is a thoroughly rewarding experience through a beautiful country. Still coming to terms with the 150 years of occupation and war, the trip took us from North to South in a hectic but fascinating two week trip. You'll learn a lot about the recent history which still effects the country today. The people make this trip, from it's busy markets, the millions of scooters to the smiling children playing on the streets its hard not to be totally charmed by the place and it's culture. The country is stunning, halong bay being an obvious highlight, but the temples, pagodas, beaches, jungle and rice fields all help make this trip one of the best I've been on.
