    Ann and Hanna helped me organizing 5-day traveling across Ho Chi Minh including arranging transportation and tours and making hotel recommendations. The service during the tour was excellent and went above and beyond. I had the feeling I could count on their support 24/7 vis Whatsapp if needed. Furthermore, they were always cheerful. I can only recommend this travel office and especially the 2 of them!

    Great tour organized by Authentic. We went to Authentic to do sightseeing to Ho Chi Minh. We were introduced a few one-day tours and we went to Cu Chi, Mekong. The scenery is really nice! Tran has done an excellent job in organizing the tours for us and made sure that we are well taken care of.

    Traveling to a foreign country with language you can't understand will make you paranoid at all things. But when I got to talk to Son through email before I went to Ho Chi Minh you can feel that you're talking to a straingt forward, honest agency. When you meet him in person I'm sure you will not hesitate to book with him. HIGHTLY RECOMMENDED! You can trust him and don't waste time by looking for other travel agencies.
