World Spree’s Amazing Vietnam Tour, from $1,699, is a Steal
Bellevue, WA, August 15, 2013—With ancient pagodas, historic cities and beautiful beaches--not to mention charming hotels and delicious cuisine—Vietnam is a world-class destination that’s especially appealing to Americans. World Spree, aka China Spree, has now crossed the border to Vietnam, offering the same low-cost but value-packed tours that are so popular in China.
The 10-day Amazing Vietnam tour, starts at only $1,699 and includes round-trip from San Francisco on Korean Air; transfers, flights and transportation in Vietnam; six nights of 5-star hotel accommodations; a deluxe overnight cruise on Halong Bay; daily breakfast; one lunch, two dinners; sightseeing; entrance fees; professional guides; and a four-hour tour of Seoul, Korea on the way home.
Hanoi, Vietnam’s attractive capital, is a mix of 13th-century Old Quarter with its maze of narrow alleys and shops, 19th-century colonial city with French-style buildings and 21st-century streets full of motorbikes and smart restaurants. Sightseeing here includes Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum and House on Stilts; the lotus-like One Pillar Pagoda; the 11th-century Temple of Literature; and the infamous Hoa Lo Prison, otherwise known as the “Hanoi Hilton.” There’s also an optional tour of the Old Quarter with a traditional water puppet show.
A scenic trip through a landscape of rice paddies and water buffalo leads to Halong and an overnight cruise through beautiful Halong Bay with its striking limestone outcrops and islets. Then it’s on to Hoi An, a town of historic charm and traditional architecture as well as bargain shopping and a lovely beach.
And finally, a flight to Saigon, officially known as Ho Chi Minh City, where sightseeing includes the lively, French-flavored Dong Khoi Street (Opera House, Notre Dame Cathedral, Post Office designed by Gustav Eiffel) and the Reunification Palace, South Vietnam government headquarters during the Vietnam War. Optional tours are available to the Cao Dai Temple, the famous Cu Chi Tunnels, Saigon’s nightlife and the Mekong Delta.
The hotels chosen for this tour are the Sheraton Hanoi, with lush gardens and views of West Lake; the luxe Golden Sand Resort and Spa, set on a sensational sand beach just outside Han Oi, and the Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon, which has a rooftop pool and two popular restaurants.
Prices include the fuel surcharge and taxes, are cash-only, per person double occupancy, subject to availability and must be booked by September 30 to get the discounted $1,699 price.
