When my son and couple of his mates came over they flew to Saigon, spent a few days there, FLEW to Hanoi, fiddled about there for a few days, caught a bus to Hoi An (my son%26#39;s favourite place) and played there for a while too. Guess it depends on budget and what they want to do. From what I%26#39;ve read on this site, flying is the way to go, bus takes too much time and energy???

Hi I put a similar post on recently as we are travelling the opposite way, have a look at the responses I got as I found it very helpful.
Your son only has 2 weeks to travel a vast distance and overland travel is quite slow. I would suggest just a few stops, perhaps
Saigon 2 days
Nha Trang 3 days
Hoi an / Hue 5 days
Hanoi remainer of their time
Flying where possible will save time and then perhaps the overnight sleeper train(no lost time) from Hue to hanoi for the experience.
We have some pics and stories of our similar trip here... www.bobandjanette.com which may prove useful
Happy %26amp; safe travels
