15-Day Vietnam Grand Journey: Hanoi, Sapa, Lan Ha Bay, Hoi An, Saigon & the Mekong Delta
Three regions. One extraordinary journey. Countless lasting memories.
Imagine beginning your Vietnam journey in the timeless capital of Hanoi, where ancient heritage, vibrant street life and unforgettable local flavors come together in one captivating experience.
From Hanoi, sail into the emerald waters of Lan Ha Bay aboard a premium overnight cruise, discover the dramatic limestone landscapes of Ninh Binh, and journey into the mountains of Sapa, where terraced valleys, ethnic villages and Fansipan — the “Roof of Indochina” — reveal the spectacular beauty of Northern Vietnam.
Your journey then continues south by domestic flight to Da Nang, where Central Vietnam combines dramatic mountain scenery with centuries of cultural heritage. Experience the spectacular Golden Bridge and Ba Na Hills, explore the spiritual beauty of Marble Mountains, glide through the coconut waterways of Cam Thanh, and wander through the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An Ancient Town.
Finally, fly onward to Ho Chi Minh City for a vibrant Southern Vietnam experience. Explore the historic Cu Chi Tunnels, visit the Independence Palace and War Remnants Museum, experience the energy of Ben Thanh Market and discover the flavors of Saigon before slowing down among the waterways, orchards and villages of the Mekong Delta.
From Northern mountains and heritage landscapes to Central Vietnam’s ancient towns and Southern waterways, this carefully connected 15-day private journey offers a rich and diverse introduction to Vietnam from North to South.

💬 READY TO DISCOVER VIETNAM FROM NORTH TO SOUTH?
This is a sample journey designed to inspire your Vietnam adventure. Your itinerary does not have to follow this route. Share your preferred destinations, travel dates, interests, travel style, pace, accommodation preferences, and special experiences with us — and our experts will thoughtfully craft a private, bespoke journey around your wishes.
Paradise Trips | VTH Travel can tailor this journey to your preferred hotel category, travel pace, experiences and schedule.
International flights to/from Vietnam are not included so you have complete freedom to choose your preferred airline, frequent flyer program, or departure location. Regarding domestic flights (Hanoi ➔ Da Nang and Da Nang ➔ Ho Chi Minh City), they are quoted separately because airfares fluctuate based on booking class, seasonal timing, and personal baggage weight. Upon request, Paradise Trips will seamlessly arrange and issue these domestic flight tickets for your group at official airline rates, ensuring ideal midday schedules and full baggage coverage (23kg checked + 7kg hand carry) with zero hassle.
To give you complete culinary freedom without feeling forced into fixed group menus every single night, selected dinners are left open. This allows you to explore Hanoi’s vibrant cafes, Hoi An’s riverside dining, or Saigon’s rooftop restaurants at your own pace. Your private local guide will always provide tailored recommendations based on your taste and budget—ranging from authentic $5-$10 local specialty eateries to high-end $30-$50 fine dining spots. All included tour meals (B/L/D as specified) feature rich, high-quality, pre-arranged Vietnamese set menus or gourmet buffets.
By default, our package assigns three top-tier regional Local Guides (one for the North, one for Central, and one for the South). This structure ensures you receive profound, authentic local expertise in each region while saving you significant costs by avoiding extra inter-regional flight tickets, accommodation, and daily allowances for a traveling guide. However, if your group prefers the personal comfort of a single National Escort Guide who stays with you from arrival to departure across all 15 days, Paradise Trips can easily customize this for a transparent add-on fee.
This is a 100% Private, Bespoke Journey. Throughout the 15 days, you will have your own private air-conditioned vehicle, dedicated private driver, and private local guide exclusively for your family or group. The only shared moments are aboard the 5-star Lan Ha Bay Cruise vessel and the Trang An / Mekong Delta local boat rides, where high-standard shared boats operate under official waterway regulations. (Private boat rentals for cruises or river excursions can also be arranged upon VIP request).
Yes, absolutely. Our 15-Day Grand Vietnam Journey is expertly engineered as an optimal cross-country route. By utilizing two strategic domestic flights (Hanoi ➔ Da Nang on Day 9 and Da Nang ➔ Ho Chi Minh City on Day 12) during midday transitions, you eliminate long, exhausting overland drives. You enjoy full, immersive days in key highlights like Sapa, Lan Ha Bay, Ninh Binh, Ba Na Hills, Hoi An, and the Mekong Delta at a very comfortable, non-rushed pace.
Your package fully includes the round-trip scenic cable car ticket ascending Fansipan Mountain. Upon reaching the upper cable car station (3,000m altitude), guests can either take a scenic walk up 600 stone steps passing monumental Buddhist sanctuaries to reach the 3,143m peak marker, or choose to ride the optional summit funicular train. Since some travelers enjoy the crisp mountain air walk while others prefer the funicular, the upper funicular ticket can be instantly purchased on-site based on your physical comfort and live weather conditions.
Weather in tropical and high-altitude mountain regions can change quickly. Because your tour is completely private, our local guides continuously monitor real-time weather radar. If heavy fog rolls into Fansipan or Ba Na Hills, your guide will dynamically adjust the order of daily sightseeing—for instance, exploring cultural sanctuaries or low-altitude villages first and taking the cable car during clearer afternoon windows to guarantee the best possible views.
This package serves as a master sample itinerary, designed with high flexibility to match your exact travel style and budget. Depending on your preferences, we can carefully curate your stay across 3-star cozy boutique hotels, 4-star premier properties, or 5-star world-class luxury resorts and VIP suite categories. Simply share your ideal hotel tier, preferred room types, or specific luxury brand expectations with us, and Dr. Son & Team at Paradise Trips will tailor a bespoke package created exclusively for you!
Vietnamese cuisine is naturally fresh, health-conscious, and highly adaptable! Prior to your arrival, our team records all your dietary restrictions, food allergies, or religious food requirements (Halal/Kosher/Vegan/Gluten-Free). During street food walking tours in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, as well as on board your Lan Ha Bay luxury cruise, specialized gourmet menus or custom-cooked street food options are arranged in advance so you can indulge in authentic local flavors with complete peace of mind.
From the moment you send an inquiry until your homebound flight departs, you receive dedicated 24/7 ground care. You can reach CEO & Founder Dr. Son and our senior travel experts directly via WhatsApp (+84 988 438 916) or email (Paradisetrips.vn@gmail.com). Whether you wish to modify the 15-day route, adjust hotel tiers, or add extra beach rest days in Phu Quoc/Nha Trang, our team provides instant, free consultation and personalized tailor-made quotes.

We spent weeks searching for the right 15-day Vietnam itinerary for our family, and booking with Dr. Son and the Paradise Trips team was hands down the best decision we made. From the moment we landed in Hanoi, everything ran like clockwork. The balance between adventure and comfort was unreal — trekking through Sapa’s foggy valleys, waking up to sunrise on Lan Ha Bay, and then walking across the Golden Bridge in Ba Na Hills felt like three different vacations in one! What impressed us most was the flexibility. On Day 9, when our kids were a bit tired, our driver and local guide seamlessly adjusted our Da Nang schedule without us missing a thing. If you want a zero-stress, high-end trip across Vietnam, trust Dr. Son!

15 days that we will treasure forever! Vietnam had been on our bucket list for years, and Dr. Son’s team turned it into a dream holiday. Sapa was breathtaking — taking the cable car up to Fansipan Peak literally put us above the clouds, and the glass bridge was surreal. Coming down to the ancient streets of Hoi An lit by thousands of colorful lanterns was such a romantic transition. Every detail, from the private transfers to the handpicked 4-star boutique hotels, was top notch. A special thanks to our local guides who were so passionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely welcoming. Paradise Trips really delivers lasting memories!

Outstanding
Traveling with two teenagers (aged 10 and 16) across Asia is usually a challenge, and we typically avoid rigid package tours because the kids easily get exhausted. But Paradise Trips got this 15-day North-to-South itinerary completely right! The flight transfers between Hanoi, Da Nang, and Saigon were strategically scheduled around midday, giving us stress-free mornings and zero travel fatigue. The street food walking tours in Hanoi Old Quarter and Saigon were absolute hits for the whole family — our local guides knew every hidden alley and took us to taste authentic Bánh Xèo and amazing local treats that even the kids fell in love with. The luxury overnight cruise in Lan Ha Bay was also remarkably peaceful and safe compared to the crowded Ha Long Bay photos we’d seen online. Outstanding local guides in every single region who cared for our family like their own. Highly recommended for families looking for a seamless Vietnam adventure!
