Semester at Sea in VIETNAM (part one) | Semester at Sea Spring 2020

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator documents a multi-day excursion through Vietnam as part of a Semester at Sea program. The journey begins with a trip to the Mekong Delta, where the group explores Unicorn Island, observes honey presentations, and travels via hand-rowed boats. The itinerary includes a post-lunch bike tour, visits to local markets, and a stop at a pagoda featuring a massive Buddha statue. After experiencing Vietnamese coffee and local street food, the group travels by flight to Da Nang and settles into an Airbnb overlooking rice paddies in Hoi An. The second leg of the trip features a four-hour bike tour through sandstone landmarks and rice fields, as well as a hands-on experience making rice paper. The video concludes with the group attending the lantern festival in Hoi An, where they navigate the streets filled with colored lanterns and take a boat ride through the illuminated scenery.
