Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Based on To Asia With Love, the Southeast Asian guidebook that The International Herald Tribune's Thai Day hailed as “a guide with depth and color that most of [its] competitors lack,” To Vietnam With Love: A Travel Guide for the Connoisseur launches the To Asia With Love guidebook series. This beautiful, full-color book features a collection of personal essays by savvy expatriates, seasoned travelers, and inspired locals. Each reflection on a favorite dining, shopping, sightseeing, or cultural experience is paired with a practical fact file, so that readers can follow in the writers’ footsteps. From staying overnight with a local hill tribe and climbing Southeast Asia's highest mountain, to touring historic French villas and getting involved with local charities, every recommendation captures a distinctive aspect of the country. Sample essays can be found at www.tovietnamwithlove.com.

With its unique insights into dining, shopping, sightseeing, and culture, To Vietnam With Love is a one-of-a-kind guide for the passionate traveler.
