This was an amazing holiday, a trip of a lifetime, a real assault on the senses in every way. I have been very lucky and have travelled a lot and been to many different countries and experienced lots of different cultures and this has got to be the most fantastic holiday and experience of them all. I would highly highly recommend this trip.

I can’t express how amazing this tour has been, it was beyond expectations! I was really nervous to join a tour not knowing anyone but Milin was so friendly and welcoming from the beginning. The experiences we had (elephant home, water park, cooking class etc) were all surreal, and I’m so glad that we got to take part in that. Milin has been such an excellent travel ninja, she is always so happy and smiley, fun and caring and always ensuring that everyone is enjoying and well looked after. We’ve had the best time and made amazing memories with amazing people. Thank you so much Milin!! 🫶🏻🐰

This tour was so amazing and Smile made sure it was for all of us!!! He’s an amazing guide, friend, comedian and bodyguard ;)! I couldn’t have wished for a better tour guide. He made sure everyone was comfortable and having fun all the time. We learned so much about the culture and history of Thailand. My favorite part of this trip was the jungle trek and sleeping in the local village. Playing with the kids, seeing them happy and giving them snacks and toys was something that gave me so much joy. Thank you Smile for making this trip unforgettable!

Our trip was absolutely incredible! Our tour comapny took care of every aspect, from arranging pickups and drop-offs to booking fantastic hotels and organizing engaging activities. They went above and beyond to customize the trip to our preferences, including adding a delightful food tour. Our dedicated WhatsApp concierge, provided exceptional assistance throughout, helping us with visas, packing, planning, and every single detail of our trip. His efficiency and thoroughness in addressing our questions and working out all the logistics were truly invaluable.
We wholeheartedly recommend this trip without any hesitation. There were so many highlights on our journey, such as the enchanting Hoi An lanterns, the unforgettable Saigon food tour on scooters (an absolute must-try!).We can't express enough gratitude
for the outstanding service provided by the tour company. They made our trip truly unforgettable, and we would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone.
What an amazing experience!! We worked with the tour agent for over a year to plan our vacation and it couldn’t have turned out more perfect! Tracey listened to all over our hopes and interests, and delivered an itinerary that ended up being a dream vacation! We spent 2 weeks exploring Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand with our family of 5 and the guides we had in each city were
wonderful, knowledgeable, and felt like our friends just showing us around their country. We will absolutely go through them again when we find time to explore more of Asia!

Excellent tour, excellent tour leader. My only criticisms are that the tour was 1 or 2 temples too many and that the leader gave too many statistics and tended to repeat himself in his obvious enthusiasm

The leader makes the tour and Tien is the Very Best ! Her professional years of experience and knowledge really shine through. You are part of her family and she will do what it takes to make your tour the most rewarding it can be for you. Any special needs you might have, she's there to make it happen. The experiences were varied and interesting from junk boat cruise to an hour tour in a rickshaw. The local guides and drivers did their jobs well as professionals. Siem Reap was very hot and some of the members were not really prepared for it. But water was always available on the bus so everyone could keep hydrated. I enjoyed the temple sunset and especially the optional sunrise at Angkor Wat. This is my first tour in more than 30 years and my first with Explore. I enjoyed it greatly and I've made some new life long friends. I'm looking forward to my next tour and the high standard that this one has set.

Discovering a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and caring tour company can be challenging, especially when time is limited. Luckily, my husband and I were incredibly fortunate to find this amazing tour company. With her assistance, we planned our itinerary, expedited our visa, made last-minute changes, and still experienced the wonders of northern Vietnam in a safe, memorable, and truly wonderful way.
The team was exceptional in handling all the details with flexibility, patience, positivity, and proactive care. Their professionalism and kind-hearted nature made a significant difference in our journey.
A big thank you to out tour expert and her associate for their outstanding care and ensuring an awesome and amazing Vietnam adventure!
I highly recommend this tour company for all your Vietnam tours.
