I did the 12 day tour of Vietnam and I cant recommend it enough! It was amazing to see so many different places (Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh). Our leader Lauren was brilliant, she is so helpful and knowledgeable about everywhere we visited. She was also just great fun! Cant wait to do another intro tour in the future.
Ive done 3 trips with intro and loved them all, but my most recent one with Jabs and Sophie in Vietnam was especially memorable. The trip was very well organised and we covered a lot of sight seeing, activities etc. Jabs and Sophie were always full of energy and happy to help with anything and everything. I would 100% recommend intro tours if you enjoy travelling!

Just completed my 3rd intro tour and already booked my 4th for next year! Just finished the Vietnam intro and had the absolute best time. Very well organised by our amazing tour leader Annelise who was just the best!! Would recommend intro to anyone. I work full time and these trips allow me to experience travel with so many amazing experiences!
What more we can say... First time in Vietnam, and the whole experience was incredible. Vietnam was gorgeous in many aspects from nature to people. I was totally amazed by the spectacular view of the caves in Ninh Binh and Halong Bay, while my parents liked the Hue countryside tour. Vietnamese cuisine was excellent, from local street food to seafood buffets. We tried egg coffee, and it was so good, you must try it when traveling to Hanoi. We bought lots of souvenirs for our friends. We bought conical hats in the village, which was making them for a very long time, and we even saw the entire process of making them. We also recommend you to look at the products with mother-of-pearl decorations, you will be pleasantly surprised with the price for it. Thank you, travel specialist for making my visit memorable.
Vietnam with intro was such an incredible experience thanks to our fantastic leader Michelle! Honourable mention to Jas and Tim as leaders-in-training who will be amazing. The whole trip was so enjoyable and engaging, and I genuinely cant remember the last time I had that much fun. Michelle was amazing in any scenario thrown her way, and nothing was ever too big of an issue to solve! I consistently felt so safe and reassured with the team. From cultural experiences of war tunnels and walking tours to incredible boat rides and fun nights out this has been one of the best holidays of my life. I would absolutely recommend to anyone solo travelling because you will meet such amazing people along the way. I wish I could do it all over again!
Traveling for 16 days across 4 countries with my best friend was our dream since high school. Each activity planned was fantastic, and the experiences in every country were unforgettable. Dat made us feel at home throughout the journey, and we particularly appreciated local guide's support during the trip. Thank you for an amazing experience—I'll be recommending this to everyone!
I have just finished the 12 day intro tour in Vietnam and this was such a good tour, I have had the best time and the group leader Connor was amazing and I cannot fault anything, he was super knowledgeable, personable and also a good laugh. I highly recommended intro, this is my 2nd tour and I am just about to start my next Cambodia tour with them too
Vietnam is a country of great natural beauty, delicious and flavourful cuisine, compelling history, immense cultural diversity and an incredible heritage. Stretching its way down from the rugged, hill-tribe country along the Chinese border to the abundantly fertile Mekong Delta in the south, this land is as rich and diverse in natural beauty as it is warm and friendly when it comes to the hospitality of its people.
Join us on this 12-day, guided trip to discover Vietnam's stunning natural beauty and remarkable cultural heritages. Starting from Ho Chi Minh City (also known as Saigon), where we will meet you on arrival, this journey takes you to the Mekong Delta, Da Nang, Hoi An, Hanoi, Ninh Bình and the Hạ Long Bay before coming to an end in Hanoi.
With an intriguing history spanning over 4,000 years, including occupations from both Chinese and French, the country’s architecture and cuisine is a fascinating testament to its cultural diversity. Be part of this wonderful group tour to soak up the astounding natural beauty and rich cultural heritage of Vietnam. For more details, please scroll down to the itinerary section below.
Traveling with friends to Vietnam and Cambodia in 10 days was a great choice. The itinerary was well-crafted, offering a mix of cultural, historical, and leisure activities. Our guides were helpful and knowledgable. The hotels were superb, providing great comfort and convenience. The tour company offered amazing service and ensured we had an unforgettable adventure. Highly recommend for group travel!
This trip was everything we had ever dreamed of and more. The great planning ensured that every detail was taken care of, leaving us free to fully embrace the experience. Most tours were private for my family. Minah and her team did a great job and highly recommend them!
I just finished a month long of travelling with Intro Travel Thailand and Vietnam legs.
I really enjoyed the tours and the activities that were offered as well as the opportunity to meet some amazing people (both guests and group leaders) from all walks of life and around the world. In short, this experience was life-altering and has shaped my cultural understanding of Thailand and Vietnam as a whole.
In particular, I want to give a shoutout to my Vietnam group leader, Danny. He was truly amazing and catered to all your needs as a friend first then a group leader after, AND I WAS NEEDY ‚.
P.S, Rhi (My group leader from Thailand) was amazing too when I was feeling homesick and down!
