It will be hard to plan perfect for such a long journey when you have never been to Vietnam. Understand that, we will give you a hint for your voyage travel in Vietnam classic tours as follows.
Days 1-3: Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon)

You should book hotel rooms before going on Vietnam tours so that you not only can have a rest when you come to Saigon but also get to accommodated the new time zone.
After resting and regaining strength, it is time to explore this beautiful city. The 3 day period is not too long, nor too hasty to be able to roam and explore here.
Vietnam typical tours always advise you should go to The District 3 areas as the first place you should visit in Saigon. You can feel “Vietnam” atmosphere right after coming to this district which is jam packed with backpackers, street side massage parlors, hawkers, tattoo shops, food stalls, and so much more. There are so many hotels which have affordable prices here for you to book. There is no more ideal place to go first than this one if you are a backpacker.
Coming to this city, do not miss the chance to visit the war relics of Vietnam to be able to have new knowledge about the history of this beautiful land as well as have a look at other aspects of the cruel war of years. The best itinerary must be booking a day trip to the Cu Chi Tunnels and checking out the War Remnants Museum in the afternoon.
The other day left, I think you should buy a three pass from the bus station and pick your stops as Mui Ne or Nha Trang to scuba dive. I’m sure, it will be your most unforgettable memories when you come to coast cities in Vietnam.
Days 4-5: Da Lat

Dalat is a romantic little town located in the majestic mountains of central Vietnam. It is famous as the ideal stopover for honeymoon couples when they travel on Vietnam classic tours because of its poetic setting. Here you can admire the scenic spots such as the waterfalls as the clouds flow down, or the colorful gardens.
The favorite drink here is coffee. Nothing could be better than sipping a cup of coffees in the cozy space of a small cafe in this town.
If you are lovers of hiking and climbing, you should not miss the climbing plan on your schedule. Because the mountains here are more spectacular than your imagination.
Days 6-8: Hoi An

Come to this city, it must be a big waste of your south to north Vietnam tours if you don’t visit the ancient My Son which ruins dating back over years. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Moreover, you should rent bicycles to go through the ancient town which is near the ancient My Son. It is UNESCO World Heritage site too and you just need to spend haft day on exploring this place with the local markets place along the waterfront.
You can buy some clothing in the dozens of tailors in this small town. Because there is nowhere in the world you can find as cheap and quality silk as this tailor capital of Vietnam.
Your final day must be spent to head to the local beach on the rent bikes.
This place has a long stretch of coastline with golden sandy beaches. But you should head a bit further down to the beach to make sure that you can find the cheapest place to rest. Don’t sit on the chair near the beach without asking because it must belong to some restaurants.
Days 9-10: Hanoi
