Inside Vietnam from medicine to motorcycles

Wednesday, 03 Dec, 2009 0

BANGKOK – Exotissimo Travel has launched new tours in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi drawing extensively on the company’s insider knowledge.

“We strive to show travellers the lesser known aspects of Vietnam we know so well, but which few tourists would be able to gain access to,” said Maeve Nolan, product manager of Exotissimo Travel Vietnam.

Exotissimo’s five-day Cultural Hanoi tour includes a meal with a culinary connoisseur in the heart of the Old Quarters and dining with a local nobility in his ancestral home to hear a personal account of Vietnamese history.

Participants also get to learn Tai Chi with a martial arts master, receive a traditional diagnosis by a Vietnamese medicine expert and be entertained by a show of classical opera, chamber music or water puppetry.

Another new Vietnam tour by Exotissimo, Unseen Ho Chi Minh includes a hands-on cooking class at a Saigonese family’s house and a chauffeured ride on a Vespa scooter through the city’s motorcycle mayhem.
