Tailoring Your Experience, One Adventure at a Time

We’ve been crafting adventures in Vietnam since 1993, which is why we know that they come in all shapes and sizes. A personal experiment with street food is an adventure – as is crawling through caves with the kids. We believe that when it comes to travel, there is no such thing as “one size fits all.” Instead, the key to a remarkable Vietnam experience is working out the right adventures for you – and that’s where we come in.

Decades of experience and a travel-obsessed team means we know Vietnam better than anyone. Over the years we’ve collected active and insightful experiences that span the length of the country. If you’re new to Vietnam, we can tailor your trip to perfection. If you already have ideas then we’ll guide, advise and consult – but leave the big decisions to you. And once you’ve worked out what’s right, we’ll put that into action with a one-of-a-kind adventure crafted just for you.

OUR Trip Style

Topas Originals

Vietnam’s highlights are highlights for a reason; these are the must-see sites and must-do experiences. But that doesn’t mean that there’s no room for innovation.

As these destinations continue to reinvent themselves, a greater number of opportunities surface on how best to experience them.

With over two decades in Vietnam, we’ve had years to work out how to make the most of each city, mountain range, and seascape. Check out our Topas Originals tour suggestions.

OUR TRIP STYLE

Topas Active

Towering mountains. Dreamlike seascapes. Lush national parks. An expansive delta. And the biggest caves on the planet. Vietnam’s variety of landscapes makes it ripe for active travel, whether that’s caving, cycling, swimming, kayaking, hiking, or a combination. Each of Vietnam’s three regions – northern, central, and southern -offer something different, and we know just how to get the most out of each one!

We specialise in designing active travel itineraries that take you further in this beautiful country.

OUR Trip Style

Topas Family

Vietnam couldn’t be more family-friendly: crime levels are low, there’s loads to see and do, and the Vietnamese adore children. You’ll find that the country – and the people – will welcome your family with open arms every step of your Vietnam experience.

Keeping kids entertained on holiday isn’t always easy, but we’ve managed to pick out the best handicraft and physical activities, and adapt them so that they never get bored. When you reach out to our trip designers let them know the ages of your kids and we will handle the rest!

"We couldn’t have enjoyed the tour more. Our guide was a lovely lady who shared so much knowledge and information and really tailored the tour to suit us, she really made the trip special."

“I love the simple things when I travel, like sitting outside a local coffee shop soaking up an amazing sunset over the Thu Bon River in Hoi An, or a steaming bowl of Hu Tieu with all the toppings on a Saigon sidewalk. I can’t wait to share with you our beautiful landscapes, friendly people, stunning cuisine and more in Vietnam.”
