What made this trip really special was how different each day felt. One day we were walking through old temples, the next we were sailing on a quiet bay. Vietnam was full of surprises. The people were friendly, the food was amazing, and every place had something new to offer. Ha Long Bay was a real highlight. The boat ride through those tall limestone rocks felt peaceful and looked like something from a movie. Even the meals on the boat were great!
I also liked how we didn’t just rush from place to place. There was time to look around, take pictures, and enjoy it all. Hoi An was beautiful with all the lanterns, and Hue had some really interesting history. Our guide explained everything in a simple and fun way, which made it more enjoyable.
Then we went to Singapore, and it felt like getting into the future. It was super clean and modern, but still full of culture. The Gardens by the Bay were stunning, especially at night. Everything on this tour ran butter smooth, the flights, the hotels, the transport. It was easy to relax and enjoy. Already thinking of booking a Korea tour. Really impressed by how they manage things!

Everything was perfect. Our day tour was amazing and very enjoyable. It could not have been better. I definitely will recommend this tour company to friends and family. All went down smoothly. Very friendly guides. You are really doing a great job.
Itinerary was very good. It included experiencing scenic Vietnam and tasting local foods. Learned history of Vietnam and Cambodia. It included sightseeing of Angkor temples that are UNESCO sights.
I had an amazing time traveling with G Adventures and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a well-organized and unique group tour. What made this trip so special was the perfect balance between visiting well-known highlights and discovering hidden gems. G Adventures not only takes you to the iconic (and stunning!) tourist spots, but also brings you to small local communities you might otherwise miss if you were traveling independently.
These visits offer a deeper understanding of the country and its people, while directly supporting the local economy — whether through cooking workshops, crafting or purchasing handmade jewelry, or other fun activities. They also work with local guides, which really adds an extra layer of insight and authenticity to the experience.
Another big plus was how easy everything was: transportation, accommodations, and the overall itinerary were all taken care of. All you really had to do was choose your own lunches and dinners, pick any extra activities, and enjoy the ride.
Our guide was fantastic — super enthusiastic, caring, and full of positive energy. And I was lucky to be part of a great group of fellow travelers too!
All in all, I look back on this trip with a big smile, and I’d book with G Adventures again in a heartbeat.

Our gastronomic trip to Vietnam was excellent. We experienced a very wide range of food and in a wide range of locations. We tried street food in Hanoi and Saigon, ate the freshest fish and seafood on boat journeys and had a delightful meal home-cooked by a family. We helped prepare food in several places including spring rolls, savoury pancakes, and Vietnamese bean cake. In addition to eating (lots) there was plenty of time to experience ancient historical sites and to scratch the surface of the relatively more recent wars that the country has suffered.
Our tour guide, Hung, was excellent. He had a great sense of humour and was one of the best guides we have experienced. We were a small group - only 4 of us. We got on really well, meeting as strangers but parting as friends, including our guide. A great trip all round and would thoroughly recommend.
Great mix of scheduled activities and personal time. Superb itinerary and our travel directors, Thom in Vietnam/Tara in Cambodia were top notch! Cozy accommodations and excellent food. Loved this trip!
An interesting destination with a fascinating culture.
The cuisine is delightful and this Explore trip gives you an insight into the preparation of the local food.
The flora is very colourful, but bird watchers will be very disappointed. There is more birdsong in my garden than two weeks in Vietnam.
The Vietnamese are extremely friendly and helpful. The traffic is daunting.
