I don't think my feet have touched the ground since I've returned from Costa Rica so any relaxation achieved on the trip is rapidly disappearing sadly. However, just a quick note to say that it was the most amazing trip I've ever done. Danny our guide was phenomenal - his ability to keep us upbeat and motivated and telling us information on a need to know basis was fantastic - I wish he could be our guide on every trip I do in the future! The rest of his team was also fantastic - the logistics behind the trip were critical but totally seemless as we trudged through the rainforest and up vertical mud slopes in the rain. I was going to go on a Patagonia trek but delighted that I was advised to do this trip - it really was a challenge and I was nervous about my levels of fitness but I realise now that I'm fitter than I thought I was - long may I continue to keep the fitness up although last week I took it easy. Thanks again to WE for their excellent advice to do this trip - I'm so happy I did and have met some great people as a result!

VIETNAM SPECIAL
13 days, includes air & taxes from $3790
Vietnam is perfectly suited for adventures of ages & abilities. There are few countries where travellers relate so spontaneously. Activity and variety are the keys to the success of this adventure.
Our Vietnam special journey is a wonderful adventure covering the highlights of Vietnam North to South as well as excursions away from the more tourist trails. The tour starts in Hanoi, one of South East Asia’s most beautiful cities; you’ll visit all the sites including Asia’s oldest university, the Temple of Literature and Ho Chi Minh’s Museum before leaving the city to explore the spectacular Halong Bay in the Gulf of Tonkin. We enjoy a 2 day cruise aboard the deluxe Bhaya Classic boat through huge limestone karst scenery. Further south the old Imperial city of Hue reveals Vietnam’s historic superlatives while the seaside town of Hoi An provide further inspiration to our travels. Here we can relax by the beach or shop until you drop in the old quarter. Following on, you’ll visit the French colonial hill town of Dalat and the bustling Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). To complete this superb adventure we’ll take a side trip to the historic Cu Chi tunnels. A great all round adventure through this enchanting country with a multitude of experiences that will appeal to every traveller.
