What is included in a luxury Vietnam tour
Every private tour we run has the same backbone: your own car and driver, your own guide on sightseeing days, and one team in Vietnam that looks after you from arrival to departure. What changes at the luxury level is where you sleep, how you cruise and how much space there is in your day. A typical luxury programme with us includes:
5★ hotels and resorts with daily breakfast, in a double or twin room or a suite if you ask for one.
A suite on a luxury cruise in Lan Ha or Ha Long Bay, with meals on board.
A private air-conditioned car and driver for every transfer and visit; larger vehicles for families.
A private guide in your language on sightseeing days (English everywhere; other languages on request).
Domestic flights between Hanoi, central Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City.
Entrance fees and boat trips listed in your programme, and the meals stated day by day.
24/7 support from our operations team by phone and WhatsApp.
Not included: international flights, your visa, travel insurance, meals not listed in the programme, drinks, tips and personal expenses. Early check-in and late check-out are not included; if you need your room on arrival, we can book the night before.
How much does a luxury Vietnam tour cost?
When we quote a private tour, we start from four hotel levels. The prices below are indicative starting points per person per day for two travellers sharing a room, including hotels, car, driver, guide and the visits in the programme:
Level

Typical stays

The best 5★ hotels, luxury resorts and cruise suites
So a 12-day luxury trip like the one above starts from about US$4,200 per person, against US$1,680 for the same route at Comfort level. Signature experiences cost more: our 13-day Vietnam Luxury Tour with the sJourney train is listed from US$8,600 per person. Mixing levels is common, for example 4★ boutique hotels in Hanoi and Hue and a 5★ resort in Hoi An, and keeps the budget where you will feel it most. Prices are higher in the Christmas and Tet weeks.
For Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City we suggest 5★ hotels in the Old Quarter, the French Quarter or District 1, and name each one in your quote, with room type, so you can check it before you confirm. Our article on new luxury hotels in Vietnam covers recent openings.
Who chooses a luxury private tour
Most of our luxury guests are couples celebrating an anniversary, older travellers who want comfort and short travel days, and families with teenagers who need connecting rooms or villas. A slower pace is part of the value: we limit long drives, avoid very early starts unless they are worth it (Ha Long at sunrise, Angkor at dawn) and leave afternoons free at the resort in Hoi An or on the beach. Travelling privately also means you choose when to start each day and where to stop for coffee.
