The places that pull us back

Explore our team’s favorite destinations. Not the entire map, but a handful of places we love returning to.

A tall pagoda tower rises above trees at quiet dusk, with a palm frond and hazy sky framing the Hanoi skyline.

Hanoi

Catch a charge in Vietnam's colorful and frenetic capital city

A busy Ho Chi Minh City street is filled with motorcycles beside a pink colonial clock tower.

Ho Chi Minh City

Formerly known as Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City is a buzzing, dynamic metropolis and the main economic hub in southern Vietnam.

A Hmong woman in traditional dress carries a basket through terraced rice fields in Sapa.

Sapa

Dive deeper into the nature and culture of Vietnam by journeying north to Sapa.

The ornate red and gold Minh Mang Temple is framed by tropical trees and a garden in Hue.

Hue

Hue is the former capital of the 19th-century Nguyen Dynasty, and the vestiges of the country’s last feudal kingdom span its forested hills and riverbanks.

A kayaker paddles through calm jade-green waters between towering limestone karsts in Ha Long Bay.

Ha Long Bay

This UNESCO World Heritage site is painted in rich greens and blues: emerald waters, lush limestone islands, and iconic karst formations rising from tranquil bays.

A vendor in a conical hat paddles a wooden boat through a floating market on the Mekong Delta.

Mekong Delta

A sampan—a traditional flat-bottomed wooden boat—meandering through the waterways of the Mekong Delta’s technicolor floating markets might be the most iconic image of Vietnam.

Silk lanterns in vivid red, yellow, and blue hang above a golden-walled street in Hoi An at dusk.

Hoi An

If travel to Vietnam makes you wistful for lantern-lit alleyways, vibrant markets, and beautiful architecture, Hoi An can’t be missed.
