We just had a northern Vietnam tour with Hanoi Voyages, touring Van Ho, Pu Luong, Ninh Binh, we had a superb time. Sophie c/o with Hanoi Voyages was so helpful, gave us so many valuable advice and make sure everything goes smoothly from the beginning of the planning till we return to our home country. The driver Mr Dong, the guide Mr Quach Tan (also guide from minority village) are amazing. We cant wait to visit Vietnam again with them.

We had a fabulous trip in July 2026. The organization was truly excellent. Everything went perfectly. We found our interactions with Hanoi Travel to be exceptional. The team was very responsive, efficient, and attentive, both before the trip to plan it together and understand our expectations, and during the trip with personalized support. Having a contact person available from beginning to end was a real comfort. The hotels were all excellent, comfortable, very clean, and ideally located. The vehicles were very comfortable and spacious for our family of five. The drivers were efficient. The guides were also very friendly and engaging. We wholeheartedly recommend Hanoi Travel, a reputable company that leaves nothing to chance.

Back from our 15-day trip to Vietnam, we have our heads full of memories. We went as a family of five and it was absolutely fantastic! A huge thank you to Léa from Hanoi Voyages who listened to our needs and organized a tailor-made trip for us. We were able to discover the diversity of landscapes and cultures, and the kindness of the Vietnamese people. I recommend them 100%. A big thank you also to Djuong and Thin, our two French-speaking guides, who enriched our stay with their knowledge, and thank you to the drivers as well, who were very discreet and lovely.

What can I say?! This three-week trip to Vietnam, organized by Hanoi Voyages, was fantastic in every way! First of all, our contacts (Marie initially, then Elodie) were incredibly professional throughout the planning of this wonderful trip. Even while we were there, Elodie was always available and responded to our needs very quickly. Our various drivers were always punctual and very attentive. And their shyness was truly touching. Furthermore, our French-speaking guides allowed us to discover the history, culture, traditions, and hidden gems of Vietnam. A huge thank you to them. The hotels and restaurants were of very high quality. The activities offered and the beauty of the sites we visited were exceptional! In conclusion, another big thank you to Hanoi Voyages. We wholeheartedly recommend this agency.

Tips for preparing your trip to Laos

Why choose Laos for your next adventure?

For those who want more than a simple getaway – who crave immersion, emotion, and genuine exploration – Laos feels like it was made for you.

  • Cultural Laos: A rich tapestry of heritage where golden temples, serene pagodas, and ancient traditions invite you to slow down, wander, and soak in the atmosphere.
  • Laos by the river: Glide along the Mekong in traditional boats, surrounded by unspoiled scenery, before settling into a characterful lodge nestled among rice fields and living local communities.
  • Wild Laos: A land of raw, vibrant nature – cascading waterfalls, jungle paths, bamboo walkways and vast horizons that inspire calm and wonder.
  • Ethnic Laos: Step into remote villages, meet ethnic minority groups, and experience their timeless way of life through meaningful, respectful encounters.

📍 By region (Laos)

  • North (Luang Prabang, mountain areas): November – March
  • Centre (Vientiane, Vang Vieng): November – April
  • South (Pakse, Bolaven Plateau, 4000 islands): November – April

Each season offers its own unique atmosphere – our specialists tailor your itinerary to suit your dates and travel style.

📅 By month (Laos)

  • Jan–Mar: Ideal weather, clear skies, perfect for sightseeing
  • Apr–May: Hotter days, stunning golden light in the late afternoon

What to do and see in Laos?

  • During your journey through Laos, Luang Prabang is an absolute must-see – a UNESCO-listed gem where royal heritage, Buddhist temples and quiet charm blend beautifully.
  • In the northern region, places like Muang La offer encounters with diverse ethnic minorities such as the Lue, Tai, Hmong and Akha. Further east, Phonsavan reveals the mysterious Plain of Jars, with hundreds of ancient stone jars scattered across the landscape.
  • Along the scenic route between Luang Prabang and Vientiane, you’ll find Vang Vieng, surrounded by dramatic limestone mountains, caves and rivers.
  • Vientiane, the leafy capital, invites you to slow down with its peaceful colonial quarter, elegant architecture and laid-back atmosphere.
  • In the south, Champassak – formerly Bassac – opens the door to ancient Khmer heritage and rural tranquillity.
  • Nearby, the fertile Bolaven Plateau stretches out in cool highlands, known for its waterfalls and its robusta coffee introduced during the French colonial era.
  • Continue toward the legendary 4000 Islands region, where the Mekong spreads into a maze of islets, creating an atmosphere of total serenity.
  • For nature lovers, Laos is an endless playground: the Kuang Si Waterfall hidden in the forest, boat trips on the Nam Khan River, the cascades of Tad Sae, refreshing wild swims, and intimate encounters with ethnic communities living far off the modern world.
