Our family group sizes are small enough to avoid the crowds and reach some out-of-the-way places, but big enough for a good social mix. Our average group size of 10 allows us to hop aboard local boats, buses or trains, eat at friendly, family-run restaurants and kick back in traditional accommodation and homestays.
We know the biggest challenge on a family trip is keeping the kids entertained. So we’ve planned in advance. Nearly all of our hotels feature pools, and each day has a great mix of action-packed adventure and flexible free time. Your local leader can also suggest activities based on your kid’s hobbies or school curriculum.

1 Reviews of Family holiday in Vietnam
Reviewed on 23 Apr 2019 by Yvette
1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
Food and different modes of transport
2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
Don't hesitate, just book it! And while you're there, have an open mind, go with the flow and follow the food safety rules!
3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
Yes to an extent. Plastic usage in Vietnam is horrendous, but having one single plastic water container on the bus was one way of offsetting it, as was having
fabric bags with 'No plastic water bottles' written on it in Vietnamese. I enjoyed interacting with locals the most - especially the efforts that were gone to in the
Mekong Delta. The KOTO project is a great initiative and I was proud to be travelling with our tour company
4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
Absolutely fabulous - our family loved it!
