  Overall the actual toar tour was very good.The tour quide had a fair knowledge of the places we visited. He also well explained and never tried to skip anything. The driver was also very good, taking care of our comfort. The mini van was comfortable. No complain there. The only setback to the tour was the very initial to the tour, the airport pickup. We had to wait a little over one and a half hours when we got picked up. It was very distressing to my wife and daughter, telling me that this not a good sign and what to expert the rest of tour. First, there was nobody there for pickup. When somebody did show up after 90 minutes from that company that person did have the company coloured shirt, thats how we recognised the person, but no sign board with our names for pick up. We had to approach the person ourselve to find out. Very disappointing.

  Whilst the hotels themselves were excellent as far as accommodation and breakfast were concerned (except for the hotel at sukhumthai where eggs were obviously cooked very early in the morning and were cold at 7-00 am .Maybe we were spoilt at other hotels in that a chef was provided to cook eggs as one liked along with omlettes and other asian delicacies on the spot ) Further the hotel at Chaing Ria was in a reasonable location considering we were there for 2 days and no early rises .As such time was available to explore the city. Whilst the Holiday Inn at Chaing Mia was probably the best of all the hotels, its location was terrible in that it was about an hours walk to the night market. The hotel at Sukhumthai was 4 kilometres from the old town and 12 kilometres from the new town.Terrible Having said the above and considering the locations of the hotels it would have been helpful to have the tour guide advise how to get to the bustling townships ie by taxi or tut tut and the cost as your tours do not allow for a brief tour and advice as to the attractions in the various townships .Yes we see allthe temples and other tourist attractions however we do not see much of the local people. Finally on the last two days of the tour we were left to our own devices in chinatown Bangkok. It would have been nice for the tour guide to have given us a brief tour of Bangkok city and explained the best method of transport ie taxi or tut tut and even an explanation of how to use the rail system Brian Nichols

  This trip was an incredible 25 days experience for my husband and me. We appreciate all that Legand Tours Danny Nguyen (our tour coordinator) did to make our experience the best. He really solved every concern we had with an amazing quick response and his expertise and kind ability. There are many people we want to acknowledge. In Vietnam our guide Own and driver “F” were great. Traffic was crazy with all the scooters but we felt safe and arrived on time to each planned stop. We saw the palace and mausoleum, climbed in the war tunnels and cruised the Mekong Delta and Halong Bay to mention a few highlights. In Laos our tour guide Savai was fantastic. He arranged for us to be a part of the 6am morning pilgrimage of the monks and for us to take part in contributing to their breakfast collection with sticky rice and cookies. This was an amazing experience to join this tradition. We had a very good driver in Laos, Keat. We loved the cave exploration and the river cruise and the Khouangsi waterfall. The food at lunch was delicious. Our guide in Cambodia, Sam, was our favorite. Sam is extremely knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. Land was our driver in Cambodia and he always had cold water and infused cold cloths waiting in the car for us. Very much appreciated. It was very hot when we hiked around the many pagodas and temples (Wat) in Cambodia and visited the floating villages on Tonie Sap Lake. Pond was our guide and Jar our driver in Thailand. The days we had in Thailand were some of our favorite: one day was a 5 Mike hike in the National Park, visiting the elephant sanctuary- feeding and giving them a bath in the river was a blast and the white water rafting trip was fantastic fun. We spent a day snorkeling and relaxing at Phi Phi Islands. We ended our journey with relaxing beach time in Phuket. It was a well organized trip with diverse adventures- historical and new. We loved every minute and we want to thank your wonderful staff.
