Vietnam Travel With Kids

Known for its complex history, delicious pho, and iconic landscapes, Vietnam has always been high on our list of places to experience. And experiencing it with our children was important to us. Vietnam marked our second trip to Asia—and our children’s first trip to a communist country, as Vietnam is one of the five remaining communist countries today. Have you taken a trip with the goal to understand and experience another culture (with or without kids)? Contact us if you’d like to share your information for our “Cultural Travel” page.
