Where the golden dunes of the desert meet the azure embrace of the East Sea, you will find Phan Thiet. Often referred to as Vietnam’s "Resort Capital," this coastal sanctuary boasts a landscape unlike any other in Southeast Asia. It is a place of dramatic contrasts—red canyons, white sands, and deep blue waters.

For the elite traveler, Phan Thiet is no longer just a stopover; it is a destination of refined relaxation. With the recent opening of the Dau Giay - Phan Thiet Expressway, this coastal paradise is now accessible via a comfortable 2.5-hour luxury drive from Ho Chi Minh City.
JTB-TNT invites you to escape the metropolis and immerse yourself in the "barefoot luxury" of Mui Ne – Phan Thiet, curated with our signature Japanese precision and local expertise.
The Allure of the "Sahara of Vietnam"
Phan Thiet travel appeals to the sophisticated soul seeking solitude and natural grandeur. It is not about crowded beaches; it is about the vastness of the horizon.
1. The White Sand Dunes (Bau Trang) – A Private Safari
Imagine standing amidst endless rolling dunes as the sun rises, painting the sand in hues of pink and gold.
The Experience: Instead of joining the crowded tourist groups, JTB-TNT arranges a Private Jeep Safari. Your personal driver navigates the undulating terrain to a secluded spot where a champagne breakfast awaits. It is a moment of pure silence and beauty, perfect for meditation or photography.
2. World-Class Golfing
Phan Thiet is rapidly becoming a premier golf destination in Asia.
The Courses: Home to the PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet—designed by the legendary Greg Norman—this is where the sport meets the spectacular backdrop of the ocean.
The Service: We handle all logistics, from tee-time reservations to private caddies and club rentals, ensuring your focus remains entirely on your game.
3. The Ancient Cham Culture
Discover the mystique of the Champa Kingdom at the Poshanu Cham Towers.
The Insight: Accompanied by a knowledgeable private guide, you will explore these 8th-century architectural wonders at sunset, learning about the spiritual history of the land without the distraction of large crowds.
