Vietnam is fast becoming a favoured destination for British travellers that want a little more from their holiday.
The chance to explore this mysterious land proving too great a temptation to resist, and with flight numbers not only increasing but becoming more affordable this number is set to increase further. The draw of Vietnam is clear, the emergence of this country from the tragedy of its past has created something unique and more than a little bit special, the streets are filled with contradictions, designer brands share space with street hawkers and tumbledown slums sit alongside gleaming hotels – this is a country with more than a glint of consumerism in its age old eyes.
The natural beauty of this south-eastern Asian country is matched only by the tenacity of its people, this proud nation bearing no grudges and welcoming the influx of tourists with open arms, whether you want dramatic coastline, lush tropical forests or rugged mountains, Vietnam can deliver, and give an experience never to be forgotten.
