Think of it like the Southwest Airlines of Vietnam. We'll be jumping between Saigon, Danang, and Hanoi during our time there!

We want to explore all the flavors of the cities while we travel from south to north!

After a day of relaxing, we want to experience the culinary musings of the resort. A romantic dinner for two!

This is the pampered leg of our journey. This resort, located in Hoi An, offers incredible beaches, culinary adventures, private pools, a world-class spa...and total peace of mind.

We're saving up for flights and apartment rentals for a trip to Europe this year!

we know it might not be sexy to buy someone part of a flight...but we're never going to get there unless we get up in the air!! this will cover our flights from LA --> Hong Kong Hong Kong ---> Siagon

This will get us back from Ha Noi to LAX! Please help us get home - it's a must!

Without these, we're not going anywhere! Thanks for helping us with this crucial task!!

This will guarantee Rachel 15 hours of uninterrupted bliss on the flight across the world.

Rob needs an excuse for when Rachel asks if he was listening... Plus, these will be great for all the flights!

We want to drink like the locals drink. Help us grab some local brews at all of our destinations and we'll 'Cheers!' to you!

As we make our way to the northern end, treat us to a local lunch!

We'd love to enjoy a sunset dinner in Halong Bay while we float along after a day of kayaking and cave exploring.

We want to sip our way through the local teas and coffees throughout our journey up the country.

We'll dine deep within the caves near Halong Bay - candlelight is so necessary!

uh, why else do you think we're going?!

we'll go off-guide and explore like Bourdain himself

Get us a guided tour deep into the caves - we don't want to get lost!

Hoi An will be a place we spend several days. Renowned for amazing food and great tailors, Hoi An is small village where we'll meet local merchants and eat...everything!

We want to explore and taste our way through Vietnam markets. Did you know that Vietnam is the largest exporter of cashews in the world?

we'll explore the area on two wheels, touring national monuments and stopping for street food along the way.

A small city known for it's tailored garments, get us a custom-made garment and we'll send you a picture of us wearing our new clothes!

Help us get up close and personal with the beauties of Halong Bay. Also, it will be a good test to see whether we can row in the same direction...

Local fisherman will take us around the rivers, which work like roads around Hoi An.

Just a short boat ride from where we'll be in Hoi An, we'll spend the day exploring the local oceans.

Part night excursion, part street local food adventures. We'll experience the nightlife of Saigon the way locals do, all from the back of a vintage Vespa scooter...Rachel is terrified. watch it here: http://vietnamvespaadventures.com/tours/saigon-after-dark

The special show happens in Ha Noi so we'll catch it toward the end of our journey.

Rachel is so excited to get rid of Robert's old robe from college. Don't tell Robert.

We want to bring back some beautiful pottery from our travels to entertain guests back in LA.

We'll go aboard a junk boat in Halong Bay, and travel to the more remote beaches and caves in the area

We're flying into Hong Kong, hit the tarmac at 7am and will have a whirlwind 36 hours to explore the city before we head to the south of Vietnam

We cannot wait to experience Saigon and observe the French influence on the architecture and culture.

At our stay in Hoi An, our resort offers traditional Vietnamese massages - we cannot wait to relax after all of the exploring.

We'll spend a day in pure relaxation. Help us download a favorite book and later toast to our marriage with a refreshing cocktail.

Includes an Aromatherapy Foot Polish, Herbal Steam Bath, Vietnamese Massage, Thai-Style Foot Reflexology...pure bliss!

In between the sight-seeing, biking, kayaking and cave-exploring - we're going to need to take a break and enjoy the peaceful surroundings!

Who wouldn't be excited about this?

We'll take a guided tour through Ho Chi Minh City, taking in the history one stop at a time.

We'll spend the morning with the chef right inside the markets, shopping for produce and seafood. Then we'll return back to the kitchen to learn how to make classic Vietnamese dishes!

we're looking forward to learning about Vietnamese history - and seeing it for ourselves.

Make Rob's Indiana Jones dream come true... 50 minutes outside of Hoi An in central Vietnam.

We'll explore this curious collection of five outcroppings, in the middle of a plain, that locals believe symbolizes the five elements of water, earth, fire, air, and metal. This unusual geological formation is currently under review by UNESCO for World Heritage Site classification.
