3 Week Itinerary in December and January

​

We’re planning to go to Vietnam for just under three weeks in December and January. I’ve already drawn up a rough itinerary.

We’re both 36 and want to take it easy. So I’ve tried to plan as few stops as possible. I think 3 to 4 nights per stop will suit us well. We’ve just come back from Taiwan, where we often only stayed 2 nights per stop, which took up a bit too much of our travel time.

We enjoy exploring cities, eating in restaurants (vegan), visiting museums, doing a bit of hiking, and taking in the natural scenery.

I’ve left out the central coast due to the high likelihood of rain. We’ll definitely fly there another time.

Itinerary:

Hanoi – 4 nights (2 full days for the city, 1 day trip to Ha Long Bay)

Ninh Binh – 3 nights

Da Lat – 4 nights

Ho Chi Minh City – 4 nights (2 full days for the city, 1 day trips to the Mekong Delta)

Phu Quoc – 4 nights (2 full days to relax on the beach, 1 full day to explore the island)

Does this look alright? Or should I add anything or leave something out altogether? Thanks!
