    HALONG BAY

    For a truly spectacular family experience, book your own private 5-star junk for an overnight cruise on Halong Bay. The whole family will be amazed at the rock formations (the crew often point out the formations that resemble animals) while peacefully cruising the Bay. Be sure to stop at the caves! For bigger groups and families looking for cruising, book the Emeraude. Book in advance!

  • HOI AN

    Heading to Hoi An with the kids?  Hoi An is an ancient town located in the central province of Quang Nam and is known for its World Heritage Site status from UNESCO.  It's truly an example of a well preserved example of a Southeast Asian trading port of the 15th and 19th centuries.  Stroll the charming riverside Old Quarter to get a gander at the historic and colonial buildings, shop, and enjoy tasty local treats. Pick up a fresh coconut juice at the outdoor market, enjoy a cooking class with the kids, and bike through the rice paddies!  Want more?  Click here for the Little Steps Guide to Hoi An!
