Where to stay

From Ho Chi Minh City, hop on a speedboat to An Lam Saigon River. Travel up to Princess d’An Nam Resort & Spa in untouched Ke Ga, before heading on to secluded Anantara Mui Ne Resort & Spa. Escape by boat to Six Senses Ninh Van Bay. Save Hoi An to last and bunker down beachside at The Nam Hai or Fusion Maia Resort, but don’t skip the historic centre.

Vietnam’s moreish flavours will leave you craving lemongrass and lime months after you return. Don’t let your postcards do the talking – sign up to a cookery class in Hoi An or at the Nam Hai hotel and forever wield a wok with panache.

when to go

It’s always high season somewhere in Vietnam, thanks to opposing monsoon seasons. In the north, peak season is from November until the end of April; the tropical south is always blissfully warm.
