Follow the country. See what connects it.

Vietnam is a country of extraordinary contrasts.

Travel from the energy of its cities to the waterways and orchards of the Mekong Delta. Head into mountain landscapes and rural communities. Explore rainforest and mangrove environments, then finish among the limestone islands of Ha Long Bay.

Along the way, students get closer to the environmental challenges shaping modern Vietnam — from agriculture and urbanisation to conservation and climate adaptation — experiencing them through the landscapes and communities themselves.

Cities. Deltas. Mountains. Bay. Learning that moves with the journey.

VIETNAM: NORTH & SOUTH

Journey through Vietnam from city streets and delta waterways to mountain communities and the extraordinary landscapes of Ha Long Bay.

Travel by boat through the Mekong, explore the relationship between food, water and climate, and get involved with environmental action. Head into the mountains around Mai Chau and Pu Luong before taking the adventure onto the water again, kayaking among Ha Long Bay’s limestone islands and discovering the geology and ecosystems that make this landscape so remarkable.
