Add first reviewVerifiedSince 2008

Southern Vietnam Pho Real is an 8-day social group trip through Hoi An, Nha Trang, Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta, built for 18 to 35ish travellers who want food, coast, culture and connection without planning it all themselves. Use code GA100 for up to $100 off. Start in Hoi An with your Global Guide and group as you explore lantern-lit streets, local food, river life and relaxed social moments. Then head to Nha Trang for beach time, island energy and a slower pace before taking a private overnight train to Ho Chi Minh City. Finish with Saigon street eats, city discovery and a full-day Mekong Delta experience, where waterways, floating villages and local culture bring Southern Vietnam to life. Getaways are more comfortable than basic backpacking and more social than going alone. You’ll get twin-share accommodation or better, selected meals, transport, a dedicated Global Guide, travel medical insurance, social activities, guide-captured photos, pre-departure support and Global Ground Control support. Use code GA100 for up to $100 off. Ideal for solo travellers who want to arrive independently and leave with new mates.
