A trip we designed
Sapa · Hanoi · Halong Bay · 8 days

The north without the beach, with more time in each half. Three nights up in Sapa for Fansipan, Cat Cat and the Rong May glass bridge, then four in Hanoi with Halong Bay and Ninh Binh as day trips from the city. Road transfers both ways rather than the night train, so nobody spends a night sitting up.

Built by our planners and made yours: change the dates, the pace, the hotels, or the whole shape of it. Nothing here is fixed except the thinking behind it.
