Independent Vietnam Travel - Visit local hill tribes villages in Sapa


Independent Vietnam Travel - at your own pace

During your independent Vietnam travel experience, you will find a harmonious mix of culture and nature. It's a perfect blend of bustling cities, untouched countryside and island hideaways. The cities retain the grandeur of their colonial past, the wide boulevards and narrow alleyways alive with rickshaws, and the air thick with tempting aromas. Further afield you'll discover colourful hilltribes, terraced rice paddies, and limestone columns rising up from misty waters. The Vietnamese people have big personalities, and will welcome you into their country with great warmth and pride.

Vietnam Online sees Vietnam as a playground for people who enjoy an active holiday and offers independent Vietnam travel options where you can trek through the highlands, visit ancient pagodas, explore the exotic marine life. The beaches and islands are perhaps Vietnam's best-kept secret, allowing you to end your active trip with a few days in a tropical paradise. Whatever your choice, we organise the right independent Vietnam travel experience for you.

Your own independent Vietnam travel itinerary

If you want to travel Vietnam, we offer you the opportunity to put together your own unique travel experience, by giving you a wide choice of building blocks (modules). These are bite-sized travel experiences usually lasting between two and three days each. Choose from 20 of these independent Vietnam tours which include classic Vietnam travel highlights such as Halong Bay, the Mekong Delta and Chu Chi tunnels. We have also come up with some more unusual travel options in Vietnam such as a different take on the hill tribe treks around Sapa, and found an almost forgotten island paradise. 

If you want to travel independently to Vietnam and organise everything before you arrive, but not in a group tour, we offer the ideal solution. You can create an independent Vietnam travel itinerary which is action packed or something more laid back, it's completely up to you - arrange as little or as much as you like. If you need inspiration we also offer a number of suggestions for an independent Vietnam itinerary. These consist of several modules that we have strung together in a logical order to create longer Vietnam travel itineraries. We also offer the chance to treat yourself to a little luxury with our comfort itineraries and trips from Vietnam across to Cambodia or Laos.
