We are travelling to Vietnam next January, flights to & from Hanoi booked.Our itinerary is as follows. Hanoi – Arrive at 10 am. Plan to spend 3 nights there. So that will give us 2 & bit days. We then were collected from Hanoi to go to Ha Lang Bay for a 1 night, 2 day cruise. We are collected from Ha Lang Bay & taken to Ninh Binh. Arrive late afternoon. Staying 5 nights, we leave on the overnight train so that give us 4 full days/nights, plus the day we travel. Arrive in Hue by train at 10.00. Staying 3 nights, so that give us 2 full days plus the day of arrival. Transfer from Hue to Hoi An arriving late afternoon. Staying 7 nights, before flying home. We have 2 nights/days spare. Would you stay an extra night in any of the locations or would you travel somewhere else? We’ve ruled out going to Sapa because the weathers not great in January or doing a 2 night, 3 day cruise around Ha Lang Bay, other than that we’ve open to ideas. Sorry for the long post, but felt it important to give you an idea of what we are already doing. Any suggestions etc. would be great.

We are 4 adults in our mid 50’s to early 60’s. Very much into food & scenery. Relaxing less so, but that’s why we thought 7 nights in Hoi An might be good to relax before flying home.
5 nights in ninh binh might be s bit much unless you just plan to chill.3 nights were enough for us. Sapa would still be worth the trip in my opinion
Phong Nha caves
Very good I would do 1-2 nights in Danang
Try 5 dining at Hang Dau Rong nearby Ha Long Bay.
Personally i think its a major mistake not going to Ho ian/Danang – can u not go there after Hua and fly home from Da Nang airport
Add 2 days in Central Vietnam to visit DaNang.
