Activities in Vietnam

Discover Vietnamese History

Home to one of Vietnam’s most significant historical landmarks, Huế is ideal for culturally immersive and curriculum-linked school trips. At the Imperial City, students can explore the former seat of the Nguyễn dynasty, walking through ancient palaces, shrines, and mandarin villas. This hands-on experience brings Vietnam’s imperial past to life, offering a powerful lens through which to study history and architecture.

Cultural Exploration Through Vietnam’s Markets

Explore spirited night markets filled with handmade goods and local delicacies and witness a traditional water puppet show – a centuries-old art form that brings folklore and history to life. These activities offer students a deeper appreciation of Vietnamese history, encouraging cultural curiosity and meaningful connections through real-life, hands-on learning. 

Immersive Learning with Tai Chi

Cultural activities provide students with opportunities to connect with local traditions in an authentic and memorable way. For example, beginning the day with a Tai Chi session in Ha Long Bay offers more than just gentle movement – it introduces students to a key aspect of Vietnamese wellness and philosophy. This calming practice combines physical awareness with cultural insight, providing a meaningful connection to Vietnam’s values around balance, mindfulness, and well-being.
