Vietnam Red River Delta Haiphong

Mémorial de la guerre, Hải Phòng (Vietnam) by Christine Chauvin

Vietnam's third largest city is a major transportation hub yet does not draw a lot of travelers. Be sure to try the local coffee.

Haiphong is the third largest city of Vietnam beside Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City with population of over 2 million people. The city's name means "coastal defense" and it is nicknamed the Flamboyant City because of the many flame trees planted throughout it. Haiphong is Northern Vietnam's most important seaport and has many industrial parks invested by multinational corporations. Feel free to visit the local temple and the small history museum.

Everything went very well. I was most impressed. Your route suggestions were excellent. As I had no idea what I was doing and what to expect, as I was going to Croatia for the first time, you guided me perfectly and spot on. One hotel that I had booked was a let down, but I booked a room in a random hotel, and all the other hotels were really nice and I was completely satisfied. All in all, I only have praise for your company, as well as thanks for assisting me on this venture. I wish you all the best and may your company be successful. I will use you again.
