Our North America Trade Manager, Troy Toms, recently travelled to Vietnam with a group of 10 US travel agents to showcase Discova’s range of purpose-driven, immersive journeys across this incredibly diverse country. The 11-day itinerary featured some of the usual suspects such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang and Hoi An. There were also lesser-known gems like Ninh Binh, surrounded by majestic limestone cliffs, the UNESCO-listed My Son Sanctuary featuring ruins of ancient Hindu temples, and an exploration into the lives of people living in the Mekong Delta.
The agents were happy to experience a variety of tours, from a cooking class in the gorgeous setting of Ha Long Bay to Vespa tours in Saigon and a cycling trip to Hoi An’s countryside. This gave them an idea of the diversity of excursions on offer and how to utilise them for their guests’ travels.
