A Meditative Audio Escape to Vietnam

Welcome to Virtual Vacations, our series of meditative audio travel tours of both popular and off-the-beaten-path destinations around the world.

Don’t have Spotify? Find Virtual Vacations on your preferred listening platform here.

Let’s take a peaceful cruise up the Mekong River in Vietnam. Along the way, we’ll admire the scenery and see local life as it unfolds along the sloping banks.

We’ve created these audio tours to transport you to inspiring destinations around the world, even when you can’t be there in person. So settle in and let’s imagine a river threaded by moments of rural life: a ferry shuttling people from one side of the river to the other, children playing along the water’s edge, couples fishing from small boats, and farmers tending to their mango trees.

Note that each virtual vacation begins with a short breathing exercise to help you come into the moment and make the most of your virtual vacation.
