Hanoi opens the trip — old quarter walking tours, egg coffee in a hidden cafe, and a pho bowl at a bench that ruins all future pho. Day trip to Ha Long Bay for the karst silhouettes. Fly to Hoi An: get clothes made (the tailoring is real), eat cao lầu, ride a bike through rice paddies, and walk the lantern-lit old town at night. End in Ho Chi Minh City, faster and less curated than Hanoi — banh mi at Huynh Hoa, a rooftop cocktail, and the War Remnants Museum for context that lingers.

A day in Hanoi

Morning

Hanoi's market halls — taste the region's cured meats, aged cheeses, and single-origin olive oil straight from the producer.

Afternoon

A nearby winery for a guided cellar tour; back at the hotel before the heat peaks.

Evening

Four courses at a family-run trattoria: antipasto, pasta made that morning, a braised second, and grappa to close.
