Real connections with locals and fellow travelers (Source: Internet)Northern Vietnam is pure magic for independent travelers: dramatic limestone peaks in Ha Long Bay, emerald rice terraces in Sapa, misty mountains in Ha Giang, and the electric energy of Hanoi’s Old Quarter.
Legend Travel Group created this exact 10-day Vietnam Tours North itinerary because every week, hundreds of solo travelers just like you ask us:
“I want to see the real North… but I don’t want to be alone the whole time.”
Our solution? A perfectly paced small-group tour (max 12 people) where every traveler is solo – meaning zero awkward third-wheel moments, instant friendships, and memories that last a lifetime.
