I’m planning a trip to Hanoi with my elderly parents, my DH and my 3 primary school kids mid Dec 2011 F&E for 6D5N.


Anyone can advise :-
1) weather - what kind of clothes?
2) places to visit?
3) how to arrange for transfer?
4) commuting around there?
5) food?
6) any other things I need to look out for?

Best is if you can spend 2 days in Halong bay, than you must take the overnight Bhaya cruise. Loads of things to do, kayaking, morning taichi on deck etc.

You can check out this website, they are my supplier in Vietnam.
