Vietnam Charity Challenges

With its striking landscapes, gripping history and rich culture, Vietnam is an outstanding destination on all fronts.

Seas of motorcycles swarm historic city streets, where lanterns and lacquer ware jostle for space and street vendors push carts loaded with baguettes, brooms and fragrant street food. Head out of town, and scenes change to meandering rivers, jagged peaks and remote mountain villages, cascading terraces of emerald-green rice paddies and a stunning coastline of white sand beaches and craggy karst islands.

Raise money for your favourite charity as you cruise down the lush waterways of the mighty Mekong River, or kayak the turquoise waters of Ha Long Bay, a spectacular paradise of thousands of towering limestone islands, islets and caves.

Trek through the rice paddies and hill tribe villages of Sapa or the idyllic valley of Mai Chau, or take a thrilling cycle journey through the forested mountains, fertile farmlands and scenic back roads that crisscross the Mekong.

Our charity challenge experts can create a customised itinerary for your group or can match you with one of our upcoming challenges. Get in touch today and start planning your next adventure for a cause!

Why travel with us in Vietnam

No Fees for Charities

Unlike many other charity challenge providers, we do not charge charities service fees to operate a challenge, allowing you to raise more funds.

Custom Challenges

We offer you flexibility to customise a charity challenge to suit your needs and budget. Choose your own destination, departure date and charity.

Responsible Travel

For us it is important that our charity challenges protect the cultures and environments we visit - so sustainability is central to our planning.

Ultimate value

Our Vietnam adventures offer exceptional value for money. While internal flights are included on most of our trips, cycling itineraries include bike hire and a support vehicle for times you may wish to take a break. Additionally, we aim to incorporate as many inclusions as possible in the tour cost such as most meals, accommodation, transfers, gear hire and sightseeing excursions.

Authentic experiences

Whether you are cycling, trekking or kayaking, our adventures allow you to interact with Vietnam under your own steam. This incredibly rewarding experience provides a realistic perspective of life on this side of the world and the ways that its geographic and cultural diversity fit together.

Trip reviews

Responsible travel in Vietnam

 

Support of local communities

Employees are from local communities and are provided with training, good wages and insurance benefits under the labor law. We use locally run accommodation and encourage travelers to purchase handicrafts from village stalls and artisans and to elect to dine at small restaurants serving traditional foods.

Carbon travel minimisation

Our itineraries are designed to minimise the amount of carbon produced, opting for bikes, city walks, cyclos and electric cars as a first option.

Protection of vulnerable children

We protect vulnerable children by adhering to our comprehensive Child Welfare Policy and we seek to educate travellers about these issues.

No elephant rides

We advocate against the practice of elephant riding as part of a tourism experience and as such we do not include elephant rides in any of our Vietnam itineraries. In the interest of public safety and animal welfare we discourage our clients from partaking in such activities outside of our itineraries.
