Next, visit the bustling Ho Chi Minh City before escaping to the more historic towns of Hue and Hoi An, each with their own unique architecture, history, dishes and more.

Moving on, learn more about Laos' history in the capital of Vientiane before ending the memorable journey in the charming colonial town of Luang Prabang, the cultural and spiritual heart of the country.
