20 days were needed to cover the country. It was very varied, and really worthwhile. The guide prepared information about the next place which I really appreciated. We were in Vietnam during TET, which meant less available restaurants/shows etc. As travellers we were not too impacted, our guide kept us well informed on progress or alerted us when things had to change. I have recommended to Intrepid directly to adjust some of the timings at locations e.g. more time at War Remnants Museum and Hoi An; less time for garden visits in Da Lat but recommend other activities there e.g. train station.Show more
