Vietnam 5 Star Shopping Tour
For all the ladies out there who are after a holiday full of fun, glamour, adventure AND bargain-priced shopping, then look no further – have we got the trip for you!
Why Shop in Vietnam
Vietnam is the ultimate shop-a-holics' destination. Locally produced items such as clothing, handbags, shoes, lacquer work, pottery, baskets and embroidery (to name but a few) are now big business in Vietnam.
Exquisite embroidered tablecloths and shirts, lacquer work photo-albums, intricate basketwork and beautiful clothes of high standards are all being snapped up by the barrowful.
Saigon - or Ho Chi Minh City
Electrical goods, cameras, and cars settle quite happily amongst the noodle stalls and temples. More recently, a foreign invasion of designer stores has hit the high streets. Christian Dior and Louis Vuitton now take pride of place along the shopping haunts of Dong Khoi and Le Loi Streets.
Hoi An
Need a new dress, shirt or business suit? Head down to the pretty port town of Hoi-An, the epicentre for tailors and seamstresses. Not much time to spare? Not a problem. With over sixty tailor establishments in town to choose from, just give them your orders and within forty-eight hours you too can own a stylish suit or a fetching ‘designer label’ number for silly money. Creating your own design, in stores packed to the rafters with multi-coloured bundles of silks, linens and wools is half the fun!
Hanoi
Vietnam's charming capital in the north, (known deservedly as the "Pearl of the Orient") boasts perhaps the best souvenir outlets. They wisely concentrate on the North and Central Vietnamese hill-tribes' wondrous work. The shops themselves are worth a browse for their tasteful displays, lined along quaint, thousand year-old narrow streets. You can buy yourself handbags and even intricate kitchenware.
