Vietnam (Hanoi)
Did you know that Hanoi is actually the capital city of Vietnam? With its French influences, its Old Quarter and French Quarter makes for a unique walk down its streets. The nearby Halong Bay also offers a picturesque cruise and kayaking/snorkeling adventures
At-A-Glance
With a two year old who found her running legs and an infant in tow, we explored Hanoi over a short getaway in December. It was their first kayak experience as we cruised about Halong Bay and we were welcomed by the friendly smiles of the locals who were intrigued at how we dragged our little Beans along our adventures!
Main Highlights
Hanoi City: We visited several landmarks including the Old Quarters, the night market, Hoa Lo Prison and even a Harry Potter inspired café. It was a restful break over the New Year before we headed east to Halong Bay for our cruise
Halong Bay: Hạlong Bay sits in northeast Vietnam and is known for its clear waters and thousands of towering limestone islands topped by rainforests. We had the experience of kayaking among these limestone towers with our two little ones strapped into life jackets
