Bula, Bonjour, Talofa, Konnichiwa – and welcome!


From the moment I could dream, I dreamed of travel. At just 17, I set out on that path by diving into my first travel course, and I’ve never looked back. For the first decade, I poured my heart into everything South Pacific – those sparkling waters, warm smiles, and sun-soaked cultures became my world.


Now, my map has expanded far beyond the Pacific, and I’m proud to say I sell the entire world. And what a breathtakingly vast world it is! Over the past 30 years, I’ve been incredibly fortunate to explore some of its most magical corners – Samoa, Bali, Vietnam, Hawaii, Italy, and Switzerland are just a few of the places that have left footprints on my soul.

But this journey isn't just about me. It’s about you – your dreams, your adventures, your once-in-a-lifetime moments. I’m here to ignite your excitement, guide your decisions, and help piece together your perfect travel jigsaw. Whether you’re hopping over to Australia, meandering through the Scottish Highlands in a small group, or gliding past alpine peaks on a Swiss rail tour – I’ll be right beside you, making it all seamless.


There’s nothing quite like nabbing that dream tour, then weaving in the best flights, stopovers, and secret gems to create an itinerary that’s more than a trip – it’s an experience. Over the years, I’ve learned something simple but powerful: every place is unique, kindness connects us all, and life’s most precious souvenirs are the memories we make.


So let’s start building yours.

Vietnam FAQs

What is the best time to visit Vietnam?

Vietnam is a year-round destination, but the best time to visit depends on where you're travelling.

March to May and September to November offer pleasant temperatures and lower rainfall across much of the country. Vietnam stretches over 1,600km from north to south, so the weather can vary significantly between regions.

If you're visiting Hanoi, Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City, spring and autumn are often the best times to travel.

 

How long should I spend in Vietnam?

Most New Zealand travellers spend 10 to 14 days in Vietnam to experience the country's highlights.

This gives you time to explore many places. You can visit busy Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. You can also see Halong Bay, charming Hoi An and the beaches of Da Nang or Phu Quoc.

If you have more time, a 2 to 3-week trip lets you explore Vietnam’s culture, food and landscapes in more depth.

 

Where should I go on holiday in Vietnam?

Vietnam offers an incredible variety of experiences.

Popular destinations include:

  • Hanoi for history, culture, and street food
  • Halong Bay for cruising among limestone islands
  • Hoi An for lantern-lit streets and heritage charm
  • Da Nang for beaches and easy access to attractions
  • Ho Chi Minh City for food, nightlife, and history
  • Phu Quoc for tropical beaches and relaxation
  • Sapa for mountains and rice terraces

First-time visitors often combine Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, and Ho Chi Minh City.

 

Is Vietnam a good holiday destination for New Zealanders?

Whether you travel as a couple, family, solo traveller or group, Vietnam offers many experiences.

There are options for every travel style and budget.

Visa requirements can change, so it's important to check the latest entry requirements before travelling.

Many travellers will need to organise an appropriate visa or e-visa before departure. We recommend confirming current requirements well ahead of your travel dates.

 

How do I find the best Vietnam holiday package?

The best Vietnam holiday packages often combine flights, accommodation, transfers, and touring.

Where should I stay in Vietnam?

Where you stay will depend on your itinerary. Choose Hanoi for culture and history, Hoi An for charm and beaches, Da Nang for resorts and family holidays. If you’re looking for vibrant city life and electric nightlife, visit Ho Chi Minh City, or for island relaxation - Phu Quoc.

Vietnam offers everything from boutique hotels and luxury resorts to family-friendly accommodation and budget stays.

As with any overseas travel, it's important to remain aware of your surroundings, secure your valuables, and take extra care when crossing busy roads, particularly in larger cities where traffic can seem overwhelming at first.
