We were a group traveling together, and this tour was enjoyable. Each country offered something different. The highlight for us was definitely exploring Angkor Wat, Hoi An - lantern town and unwind on Phuket beaches together, unforgettable. Thank you to the team for making it easy to enjoy every moment.
Our family had a wonderful 2-weeks trip through Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia. My husband and I loved exploring history and culture of destinations, my kids enjoyed learning to cook Vietnamese meals. Everything was well organized and we had a great time in Southeast Asia.
The team made our trip to Vietnam so special! Everything was handled smoothly, and we felt really well taken care of the whole time. They were super flexible with our schedule and quick to respond whenever we had questions. We didn’t have to worry about a thing, just enjoyed the trip. Would definitely use them again!
This is an excellent itinerary for first-time travelers to Vietnam. Initially, I assumed that the itinerary was too tight and that we would not have enough time to adequately explore all of the locations we visited, but this was not the case. We were overjoyed and pleased with everything we saw, ate, drunk, and relaxed while on this trip:) Sapa was especially peaceful. Hoi An was highly suggested as a place to stay as well as a city to buy souvenirs and eat/drink.
Halong Bay is incredibly beautiful, Pu Luong has such fascinating natural scenery and culture, and Hanoi with its vibrant atmosphere and people is something I truly loved. The drivers and guides were friendly and fun to hang out with, and I have no complaints about the accommodations. I’m so happy that I chose this travel operator for this trip. I was always supported by the team, who paid attention to every detail and answered my questions quickly, even in the middle of the night. I will definitely use this company for my next trip to Vietnam.
Out travel expert was very helpful during my planning stages when I made multiple enquiries regarding my itinerary. I also wish to mention the warm hospitality of all the staff at the tour company, my wife and I had a wonderful time and we will return soon.
