Off the Beaten Track in Vietnam

For those who take the path less trodden
At Experience Travel Group, we like to do things a little differently, so our suggested Off the Beaten Track or "in-depth" holidays are some of our favourite ways to explore Vietnam that go well beyond the typical tourist trail.

These ‘In Depth’ luxury Vietnam holiday itineraries are ideal for return visitors or even first-timers who want to escape the crowds. If you don't want to miss certain highlights of the country, we'll make sure you see them from fresh angles to avoid being part of a pack. These holidays will also take you right out into the less-visited nooks and crannies of rural Vietnam or focus in-depth on a particular aspect of the country.

A Thread of Luxury

A thread of luxury that ties everything together. From beautiful boutique hotels to top-quality transport, to exceptional levels of service - whatever luxury looks like to you… it’s yours

Experience Travel was superb in every respect. Our travel consultant, James, was very knowledgeable about the destination, hotels etc and took great care to understand our family and what we like to do to deliver a fantastic holiday for us. From the moment we arrived in Saigon, until the moment we arrived at the airport in Hanoi to fly home, everything ran like clockwork. Our holiday was absolutely amazing. Experience Travel was recommended to us by a friend and it was a fantastic recommendation. We would definitely use them again and would have no hesitation in recommending them to others

A super four-week trip in this friendly and lovely country. This was our second trip with ETG and we have already booked a third!
