Our English-speaking guide meets you at Noi Bai International Airport and transfers you to your hotel in the Old Quarter (about 45 minutes). After a halal lunch, the city tour covers the Temple of Literature, Vietnam’s first university founded in 1070, Hoan Kiem Lake and Ngoc Son Temple, and a walk through the 36 streets of the Old Quarter. You can pray at the Al-Noor Mosque at 12 Hang Luoc Street, the only mosque in Hanoi, before a halal dinner in the Old Quarter. Overnight in Hanoi.

Drive about 2 hours south to Ninh Binh. Visit the temples of Dinh and Le kings at Hoa Lu, Vietnam’s capital in the 10th century, then take a rowing boat through the rice fields and caves of Tam Coc. Halal lunch in Tam Coc; cycling through the villages if time allows. Return to Hanoi for a halal dinner.

Drive about 2.5–3 hours to Halong Bay and board a cruise with a halal kitchen. Cruise among the limestone islands, visit a cave and go kayaking or swimming. Halal dinner and overnight on board.

Explore the Hue Imperial Citadel, the seat of the Nguyen dynasty from 1802 to 1945 and a UNESCO World Heritage site, then Thien Mu Pagoda on the Perfume River and the tomb of Emperor Tu Duc. Halal choices in Hue are limited, so we book Indian or halal-friendly restaurants and confirm seafood or vegetarian dishes in advance.

Drive over the Hai Van Pass, one of Vietnam’s most scenic coastal roads, with stops at Lang Co lagoon and the pass summit, then continue to Hoi An (about 3–4 hours with stops). In the afternoon walk through Hoi An Ancient Town: the Japanese Covered Bridge, old merchant houses and the lantern-lit riverfront.
