Tailor-made holiday specialist Experience Travel Group has created the ultimate Vietnam experience for food lovers. This once-in-a-lifetime trip offers the chance to discover the full spectrum of Vietnam's culinary joys, from pulling up a stool alongside the locals to sample some of Hanoi's best-kept street food secrets, to an exclusive cookery master class with Michelin-starred chef Michel Roux. With accommodation at beautiful boutique hotels handpicked by Experience Travel Group's team of experts and plenty of cultural and historical gems to explore along the way, foodies are sure to enjoy this unique gastronomic tour of Vietnam.
To visit Vietnam is to immerse oneself into a world of fresh, colourful, spicy, fragrant and sweet flavours on almost every street corner, and that's exactly what the new 'Foodie Tour of Vietnam' aims to do. Zip through the streets of Saigon on the back of a vintage Vespa; discover some of the city's night time street food hot spots; cruise down the Perfume River in Hue; before lunching in a traditional Garden House; and enjoy an overnight cruise at the stunning Halong Bay to round off the unforgettable trip.
