Bill Peach Tours

Vietnam is a country headed for a prosperous future yet its true character is still there to be discovered.

Vietnam is enjoying constant change and progression as it moves into the 21st century, making now the perfect time to visit this amazing country. 

A mix of French and Indo-Chinese influences, Vietnam today is one of the safest countries to visit. Its previously 'out of bounds' status is what makes this trip so alluring to the inquisitive traveller. The heritage of this beautiful country is revealed simply by strolling along the streets, past ancient temples which provide an incredible backdrop to the daily working lives of the locals. 

On May23, 2007, experienced travel operator Bill Peach Journeys will host an extraordinary journey exclusively for NRMA Members to uncover the true essence of Vietnam. This 16-day journey will take you from the southern waterways of the Mekong Delta to the highlands of Sapa in the north, providing a wonderful depiction of the diversity of this picturesque country.

You will travel from the bustling cities of Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi to the World Heritage-listed regions of Halong Bay and Hoi An, each with its own unique character.
