5.00I went on a 8 days trip with Vietnam Travel, Asia Travel & Leisure. The planning was handled and finalised by sales consultant Clory (Minh Anh), after some checking and confirmation by both sides. Clory showed a good understanding of the places of interests in Vietnam, an ability to grasp the visitors requirements. We finally settled on Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang as base, and I visited the following places : Black Virgin Mountain - Tay Ninh (Ba Den Mountain) Mekong Delta - Ben Tre BaNa Hills Hoian Hue Clory personally met me on arrival, despite the fact that it was nearly 4 hours later than the scheduled arrival time. The places I visited were very scenic, the mini bus we travelled on were clean and the journey was smooth. The respective day tours guides accompanying us were also knowledgeable, Rest stops, bottled water, nice lunches, dinner (for Hoian) were well provided for the comfort of the visitors. All queries from us, right down to the type of tea or coffee to buy home, or to consume there, were well answered. Before my arrival in Vietnam, I was still anxious and hope that everything will get on smoothly. Upon arrival, I felt at ease by the presence of the tour consultant Clory, who finalised my trip In all subsequent days, updates were provided by Clory, well handled by the tour guides that I left Vietnam with a very positive image of everything I have experienced (the country, people, food, culture, history, and of course the tour company and all the staff who made it possible). I am now more confident of searching for more of other places in Vietnam for a future visit, and the people whom I can approach for another nice holiday in Vietnam.

5.00I had great days in Saigon, not least the extremely interesging tour around the tunnellsystem memorial/museum. It was very special to be told how people managed to survive there under extreme conditions. Also a tour to see the Royal Palace and more, also an exciting evening tour - on motorbike, the only possible transportation to experience what I did. Loved it!
Very well organized tour

5.00On behalf of all the group I would like to sincerely thank you so much , dear Viet Ha, for organizing our tour; it was impeccably planned from start to finish and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The country is incredibly rich in culture and natural beauty. Every place we visited had something unique and special that made it stand out. The tour guides Mr Gang and Mr Long, the driver, for North Vietnam, Mr Nhan for Central Vietnam and Mr Vu Vinh our tour guide for South of Vietnam. were exceptionally well-prepared, answering every question with ease and providing detailed explanations at each stop. Thankfully, the weather was on our side, which made the journey even more enjoyable. The drivers were very cautious and punctual and the means of transport was always very comfortable. The hotels exceeded our expectations—clean, comfortable, and of a very high standard. Their convenient locations, close to the city centres, made it easy for us to explore on our own in the evenings. Dear Viet Ha, it was a pleasure meeting you in Vietnam and we truly appreciate all the effort you put into making this trip memorable for us! I would highly recommend your services and your company to all my friends who would like to visit your beautiful country.

5.00A thoughtfully crafted trip with a great range of sights and activities! Loved seeing so many facets up close, taking in the moments with the locals, seeing all phases of a coconut's life and the many shapes and forms it takes! It was really nice to walk away with personalized keepsakes too!
