Around Vietnam Photography Tour Itinerary

Day 1: Ha Noi

After check into the hotel, our journey begins with an afternoon photography session at the Incense Village, where we capture its vibrant colors and rich traditions. After our shoot, we head into town for a welcome dinner, getting to know each other over delicious local cuisine and toasting to the adventure ahead.

Day 2: Ha Noi

Today, we immerse ourselves in the cultural heart of Northern Vietnam, capturing the essence of two iconic villages. In the morning, we visit a traditional soy sauce village, where the art of fermentation has been passed down for generations. Our lenses will document the meticulous process and the aged barrels exuding rich aromas.

In the afternoon, we shift focus to a bamboo fishing trap village, where skilled artisans craft intricate traps by hand. Each click preserves the harmony between tradition and nature, telling the story of a way of life deeply connected to the water. From the savory essence of soy to the rhythmic artistry of fishing traditions, today’s journey offers a visual tapestry of Northern Vietnam’s cultural richness.

Day 3: Ninh Binh - Hue

We begin our day in the breathtaking landscapes of Tam Coc, where limestone karsts rise from tranquil waterways, creating a dreamlike setting. As we capture this UNESCO-listed gem, each frame becomes a visual poem of Vietnam’s countryside.

From the serenity of Tam Coc, we transition to the bustling Hanoi Airport for our flight to Hue. This shift from peaceful landscapes to Hue’s rich history adds depth to our photographic journey, as we anticipate exploring the city’s imperial past and vibrant culture.

Day 4: Hue

We step into the historic grandeur of Hue’s Imperial City, where Vietnamese models dressed in elegant Ao Dai bring the past to life against ancient walls and regal architecture. Our cameras frame stories of tradition and grace within this UNESCO-listed citadel.

Later, we turn our lenses to the daily lives of local fishermen, capturing their skillful net-casting on the Perfume River. As the sun sets, we witness the enchanting sight of floating candles drifting along the water, carrying wishes and dreams. From imperial elegance to the rhythms of river life, today’s journey weaves together the diverse cultural stories of Hue.

Day 5: Hue - Hoi An

We begin our morning in Hue’s eerie yet captivating abandoned water park, where nature is slowly reclaiming forgotten structures. This haunting beauty offers a unique contrast of decay and resilience.

From Hue, we journey to Hoi An, where vibrant streets and lantern-lit alleys become our playground for street photography. We capture the town’s energy, from bustling markets to quiet moments in historic courtyards. As the day fades, we frame Hoi An’s glowing lanterns at sunset, creating a stunning finale to a day of contrasts between past and present.

Day 6: Hoi An

At 4 a.m., we set sail on a tranquil river to photograph Hoi An’s fishermen using the traditional Ro technique, casting their nets in the soft morning light. Each ripple tells a story of time-honored skill and perseverance.

Later, we turn our focus to portrait photography, capturing the weathered beauty and wisdom in the face of an elderly local. As the morning progresses, we bid farewell to Hoi An and journey to Phu Yen, where a new chapter of visual exploration awaits.

Day 7: Hoi An - Phu Yen

In Phu Yen, we immerse ourselves in the rhythms of coastal life, capturing fishermen navigating the waves and, if fortune favors, the dynamic grace of a net-casting scene. Our journey then takes us to a coracle boat-making village, where skilled hands shape these traditional round boats.

As the day unfolds, we travel toward the scenic province of Khanh Hoa, where fresh photographic opportunities await. From the maritime traditions of Phu Yen to the artistry of boat crafting, today’s journey captures the essence of Vietnam’s coastal heritage.

Day 8: Khanh Hoa

We rise early to document the hard work of Khanh Hoa’s salt farmers, their silhouettes set against the glistening white salt fields. We then shift our focus to the intricate craft of net sewing, preserving the skill and dedication woven into every stitch.

Later, we travel to Phan Rang Thap Cham, where we conclude the day by capturing a shepherd guiding his flock home against a backdrop of golden dunes. Today’s visual story blends human resilience, cultural heritage, and the raw beauty of Vietnam’s landscapes.

Day 9: Ninh Thuan

At sunrise, we frame the poetic beauty of Nam Cuong sand dunes, silhouetting a Cham woman in the shifting sands. Moving into a Cham village, we document the traditional pottery-making process, a craft passed down through generations.

Later, we set off for Mui Ne, home to Vietnam’s most striking sand dunes, preparing for another day of dynamic landscapes and cultural encounters.

Day 10: Binh Thuan - Ho Chi Minh City

Our final morning takes us to Binh Thuan’s dunes, where children play with old tires, their laughter echoing through the sandy expanse. In the afternoon, we shift to Vung Tau, capturing the artistry of steamed fish preparation in a local workshop.

As our journey comes to an end, we arrive in Ho Chi Minh City, reaching Tan Son Nhat Airport by 3 p.m. Whether heading home with a treasure trove of memories or extending your stay to explore the city, our time together has been a visual odyssey across Vietnam’s rich landscapes and cultures.
