Often referred to as the “pearl” of Southeast Asia, this “S-shaped country” fascinates visitors with its ancient culture, majestic landscapes and distinctive cuisine . For New Zealanders who love adventure, warmth and something truly different, Vietnam is always a favorite destination on their list of places to visit.

Lucy Anthony, a consultant for Wendy Wu Tours, was amazed when she arrived in the country she has spent years promoting and helping countless clients book their dream vacation in Vietnam, saying, “It was really exciting to be in a place so different from anything I have been to before. The cities, the history and the landscapes - all blend together to create a wonderful experience.”

Seeing Vietnam through the eyes of both a professional and a first-time visitor has given Lucy a unique perspective on why Vietnam leaves such a lasting impression. She says locals have introduced her to the country’s rich culture and the “secrets” that guidebooks often leave out.

Vietnam civilization has existed for more than 4,000 years, is a multi-layered and profound culture. From picturesque beaches to rich cuisine, all have made it special and brought to visitors unforgettable experiences. Hiking trips to remote villages in Sa Pa or journeys along the Reunification Railway with professional local guides "breathing life" into each location, immersing visitors in wonderful scenery.

Visitors will be impressed by the vibrant pace of life in the big cities in Vietnam, truly enjoying and feeling attracted by the energy and movement everywhere, especially at night. Motorbikes carry whole families, with lots of luggage. It is a joyful and enchanting sight.

Cu Chi Tunnels is a place that every tourist comes to when setting foot in Ho Chi Minh City, listening to the guides vividly explain the history of this area, making the trip more authentic.

Then came trips to see the mist covering Ha Long Bay, strolling through the ancient town of Hoi An, and enjoying street food with new friends in Hanoi, all of which left unforgettable memories of this Southeast Asian country.

For Lucy, Vietnam is one of those places that truly brings special experiences and emotions to everyone, and the difference lies in the fact that tourists are led around by enthusiastic guides who are knowledgeable about the geography, culture and local customs so that they can truly understand every corner of the country. Besides, another thing that tourists love when traveling in Vietnam is that all transportation services, meals, entrance tickets and flights are carefully arranged in advance, so they can just focus on enjoying everything and spending time relaxing in the country known as the “pearl” of Southeast Asia.
