Across these buildings, we will find an attractive mixture of vibrant architecture and the site of some of the most important history in Vietnam. We finish our time at the political centre of the city by heading to the Temple of Literature, constructed in 1070 as the country’s first university, lauding the teachings of Confucius to the select few students who studied here.
We will have a traditional Hanoi lunch before moving onto the Museum of Ethnology, which provides an excellent account of the 54 ethnic minorities around Vietnam.

One such stop is to Giang Mo village, a stunning array of humble houses set amidst rice paddies at the foot of the Mo Mountain, where we can meet some of the locals and watch the kids be amazed by their colourful traditional dress. We will have lunch here and continue on our way.
Once we have arrived in Mai Chau, we will take in the gorgeous scenery from Lac Village, watching the daily lives of the native Thai ethnic minority here. Soak up the beautiful atmosphere of Mai Chau on a stroll around the village, greeting smiling locals and affording your kids a lot of playtime in the wide open spaces.

Consult our guide for the most appropriate route to take. There are three options that end in Pom Coong village, Van village or Chieng Chau village, all of which are the residences of vibrant ethnic minority cultures living uncomplicated lives amongst some of northern Vietnam’s most beautiful scenery. On the way, we will pass markets where we will find an endearing communal atmosphere, along with many other examples of a traditional life where family connections are prized above everything else.

This small enclave was the capital of Vietnam for 41 years, spanning the rules of Emperor Dinh and Emperor Le before the capital was moved to Thang Long (Hanoi). Now Hoa Lu’s legacies to the two emperors are found in its two memorial temples, to which we will pay a visit.
Along a series of undulating karst mountains, we arrive at Tam Coc. We have lunch in a local restaurant here and board our boat for one of the most beloved activities on this kids’ holiday, a sampan boat cruise along Tam Coc’s stunning river. A constant source of wonder for children is how the local rowers steer the boat with their feet while cruising along a spectacularly scenic waterway, flanked by goat-speckled mountains and rice paddies with caves and mountaintop pagodas.

Around 3000 limestone islands comprise the glorious bay, some of which we will pass between as we skirt the emerald waters, discovering an ancient land frozen in time.
A succulent seafood lunch will be served in the dining room, after which you will have time to relax with your family, either on the top deck or in your cabin. During this portion of your holiday, your kids will experience the magnificence of the bay from up close, through serene kayaking, a visit to astounding Sung Sot Cave and playtime on the beach at Titop Island.

We will begin our cycle across quaint country roads, taking in the idyllic scenes of Vietnamese farmers in the rice paddies and stopping for photos. Upon our arrival to Tra Que, we discover a completely organic village centered around farming, which you will experience first-hand by assisting with the watering, planting and harvesting of clean crops. For the kids, a ride on a water buffalo as they plough the fields will provide a beautiful memory, and watching the ducks waddle through the rice paddies leave them with a favourable image of Vietnam for years to come.
After a delicious lunch, and after all of the farming work, you can relax on a basket boat cruise around the river and learn of the traditional fishing techniques still employed by the locals here. The whole family can have a go at paddling one of these iconic, round-bottomed boats as we pass through a beautiful coconut forest, with verdant tropical nipa palm arching over our heads.
