Life on the water…🌿🇻🇳

In Vietnam, the rivers are more than scenery — they’re a way of life. From floating markets to daily commutes, locals glide along the waterways with ease, using boats the way many of us use cars.

A beautiful reminder of how deeply culture and nature flow together here. 🚤✨

🚂✨ Train Street Magic in Hanoi! ✨🇻🇳

Our guests had an unforgettable visit to Hanoi’s world-famous Train Street — where cafés hug the railway tracks and the whole street buzzes with excitement as the train passes just inches away!

It’s one of those uniquely Vietnamese experiences that has you holding your breath and smiling from ear to ear. A perfect mix of thrill, culture, and pure travel magic. 💛🌏

✨ Welcome Home, Travellers! ✨

Our wonderful guests have now arrived back home safely after an unforgettable adventure through New Zealand — and what an incredible journey it was! 🇳🇿💙

From soaring above dramatic landscapes on helicopter rides, to heart-pounding high-speed jet boat adventures, to magical moments dolphin spotting on the open water… this trip was filled with pinch-me experiences from start to finish.

We even enjoyed a surprise piano concert from one of our talented guests — a perfect reminder that the best part of every tour is always the people. ❤️

Thank you to this fantastic group for the laughs, the stories, the memories, and the joy you brought to every day. Until the next adventure… ✈️🌏

✨ Stepping Into Middle-earth! ✨

Our group had a truly magical day wandering through the lush green hills of Hobbiton, exploring hobbit holes, charming gardens, and iconic film locations straight from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies.
There’s nothing quite like standing in the Shire — it feels like stepping directly into the story. 🍃🏡✨

And the adventure doesn’t stop there…
🌏 Our 2027 tours, including New Zealand and Australia, are coming on sale very soon!

If the Shire is on your bucket list — or you’re dreaming of the Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, Rotorua, Milford Sound and more — now’s the time to get excited.

✨ Guest Question of the Week:

“What’s one story or moment from your tour you’ll be telling friends and family forever?”

— “How I was able to see and do so much in Peru in 10 days.” — David

On our 10-day Peru adventure, unforgettable moments await at every turn — from soaring above the mysterious Nazca Lines, to standing among the clouds at Machu Picchu, to wandering colourful markets, dramatic valleys, and experiencing the vibrant spirit of Peruvian culture 🇵🇪.

And across all our journeys, here at The Big Journey Company, we make it our mission to help you see as much as possible — in a balanced, well-paced way — so you can truly tick each destination off your bucket list. ✨🌎

Our Vietnam tour is well underway, and our guests are fully embracing the culture — looking fabulous in the traditional Vietnamese nón lá hats as they explore this beautiful country. Wonderful sights, wonderful company, and wonderful memories in the making. 🇻🇳✨

11/11/2025

On November 11, we pause to honour the brave men and women who gave their lives in service.

This date marks the end of the First World War in 1918, when the guns fell silent at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month.

Lest we forget. 🌺❤️
