5.00This tour truly exceeded our expectations, and our guide (Big Dave) was a big reason why. His stand-up-comedy style made the journey fun, engaging, and dynamic, while still giving us valuable insights into the places we visited and Vietnamese culture. We learned a lot and laughed even more.
Enjoyable tour

5.00Dat our tour leader was the key to making this tour memorable. He was informative about the area we were visiting, helped us know how to pronounce Hello and Thank You which was super helpful, was up for answering loads of questions and overall a warm, funny and relaxed guide. It felt spacious at every stop to do what we wanted. I would recommend this tour and tour company. I also liked the contact prior to pick up that confirmed me the time they would be there. A+
