Lie back on your very own junk and enjoy the languid beauty of Halong Bay's limestone outcrops. Get lost in Hanoi's Old Quarter; sup on streetside pho and toast your fellow diners with a bia hoi. Squeeze into the Cu Chi Tunnels and marvel at the engineering ingenuity that kept the VC hidden from enemy fire. Join the locals in an afternoon pick-me-up of snake's heart and a cup of serpent blood.
