time to recover from your flight, a night in Ho Chi Minh City, half a day to explore the city and an afternoon being pampered.

Once you've arrived, settled in, had your 'Welcome' dinner and enjoyed a good night's sleep, you'll awake to a special breakfast and a tour of Vietnam's commercial mega-city. After lunch you'll probably be feeling the effects of your flight, so we've arranged an afternoon of indulgence . Herbal treatments, steam bath, and invigorating massage Vietnamese-style in one of Saigon's top spa establishments - the ideal antidote to jet lag!

Phu Quoc is Vietnam 's largest island. Located in the Gulf of Thailand , has a wide variety of beaches, some regarded as the best in Vietnam . It's recently been 'discovered', so there's plenty of development in the tourist area. However, you don't need to travel far to find seclusion.

Infrastructure is improving, but most roads are rough tracks. There's plenty of accommodation, but nothing above Deluxe standard. That said, some of the smaller resorts offer comfortable tree-shaded chalets on the beach and friendly service. Duong Dong, the main town, is interesting with plenty of restaurants. Diving and snorkelling are available as well as hiking, cycling and similar activities.
