Program Overview

Northern Vietnam Untamed is an 8-day small-group Vietnam adventure through Hanoi, Pu Luong, Ninh Binh and Bai Tu Long Bay, built for 18–35ish travellers who want culture, connection and active travel without planning every detail themselves. Start in Hanoi with your Global Guide and travel group over street food, rooftop drinks and the energy of the Old Quarter, then head into northern Vietnam for rice terraces, limestone valleys, local villages, cycling, hiking and cave exploration beyond the usual tourist trail. Finish with an overnight cruise through Bai Tu Long Bay, with kayaking, local food, sunset views and a night surrounded by one of Vietnam’s most iconic landscapes. Use code GA100 for $100 off. Ideal for solo travellers, first-time group travellers and Western backpackers who want to arrive independently and leave with new mates. Includes twin-share accommodation or better, selected meals, transport, airport meet and transfer, a dedicated Global Guide, travel medical insurance, social activities, guide-captured photos, pre-departure support and Global Ground Control support.
