The FAM trip is opportunity to experience the most spectacular natural landscapes and cultural diversity of North Vietnam, including Hanoi, Sapa, Ninh Binh & Ha Long Bay
About Hanoi - Vietnam’s capital city has to be one of Asia’s most fascinating cities offering a unique blend of oriental and western charm. It is a city of exotic brightly painted temples and pagodas, elegant ochre-washed colonial villas, bustling narrow streets and alleys, grand tree-lined boulevards and shaded lakes. First established as Vietnam’s capital in 1010, when it was known as Thang Long, the city’s name changed several times before it eventually became Hanoi in 1831.
Ha Long Bay, a natural wonder of the world and one of Vietnam’s five UNESCO World Heritage Sites, magnificent Ha Long Bay lies 160km to the east of Hanoi. Over three thousand jagged limestone islands emerge from the emerald green waters of Ha Long Bay. While some islands are no more than large rocks others are much more substantial and contain huge cathedral-like caves of stalactites and stalagmites. Most of the islands are clothed in thick green vegetation and ring with the sound of bird song in the early morning. Secluded sandy coves are everywhere and in the summer months the warm waters of the bay are ideal for swimming. Ha Long’s largest island, and one of the few that are inhabited, is Cat Ba which has some nice beaches and a national park on it.
The best way to appreciate the delights of Ha Long Bay is to cruise among the islands on a wooden junk. Fresh seafood can be bought from the local fishermen directly from their rowing boats and cooked up for a delicious lunch.
Sapa, nestling in a beautiful valley on the border with China, is northwest Vietnam’s most colorful destination. Vivid green rice terraces are sculpted into the mountain sides while in the fields H’mong and Dao women work dressed in colorful traditional clothes. At the end of the week the H’mong, Dao and other ethnic minorities trek into town from the surrounding countryside to trade goods at the weekend markets in Sapa, Bac Ha and other small towns. Here they sell silver jewelry, traditional embroidered fabrics and authentic articles of hill tribe clothing at the markets. Sapa and its environs has some of the best trekking in Vietnam and there are many ethnic minority villages that can be reached in day treks from Sapa or for a real hill tribe experience it is possible to stay overnight in local villages along the way. The scenery is spectacular, especially in spring and autumn when the skies are clear and blue, and the people are welcoming. Dominating the Sapa skyline is the peak of Vietnam’s highest mountain, Mount Fan Si Pan, rising to 3,143m above sea level.
Trang An Landscape Complex - the new World Heritage Site with fascinating landscape. Experience the boat rowing, admiring and taking photos through green mountains, clear water, grottoes, ancient temples and caves. It’s chance to indulge yourself in tranquility atmosphere, green water and spectacular mountainous karst.
