    Tour with On The Go with guide Hung - was exceptional! Just don’t let the company pressure you into pre~booking any optional tours, wait until you are in country. You can get better deals this way and cancel easier. Also there was discrepancy in website guide tipping ranges and in-country guide tipping ranges, so be prepared to tip more then they say.

    From start to finish it was beyond our expectations. The group had a wonderful dynamic, the hotels were excellent the attractions fantastic, the transport on time everytime. The food was just the right balance of experiencing local cuisine and accommodating our western tastes.

    Tuan was a great guide. He gave heaps of information about Vietnam which you don’t get travelling on your own. The value of this Cant be underestimated in the enjoyment of the trip. Tuan worked tirelessly to ensure everything went smoothly working non stop while we enjoyed our trip and just relaxed and got to know each other. Thanks to a great guide I loved our trip to Vietnam. Thanks Tuan. Even met us for lunch after our trip was over.

    Mr Tuan is an exceptional guide, considerate of the slow and infirm, just had a knee operation, his induction and information on the different towns was exceptional, he manages all the suppliers taxis, hotel staff and restaurant staff to our advantage. knows us all by name on the first day, builds a group, we all felt like family. Knowledgeable about the various sites. His attention to detail is exceptional. I will recommend On The Go to my friends and hope they get this superior performer Mr Tuan. Thanks again to Mr Tuan for making us feel so special.

    Amazing! His attention to detail was outstanding, he would make sure we were already checked in and air con's were on in our rooms on arrival. He would adjust the itinerary to give us time to refresh as it was so hot some days. He even walked me to a chemist in Hanoi when we had free time as I was feeling unwell.

    Lynn

    Asked on April 30th, 2025

    If we want to stay in Hue the whole period after arriving from Hanoi until the day we leave for HCM city, will you be able to arrange for our stay in Hue? We just need the hotel to stay. Will there be any extra charge for this alternative?

    Tour Details
    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      Sorry you wouldn't be able to do that. It would be considered "leaving the tour". You have to stick to the schedule as laid out in this particular tour.

    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten April 2025

      I would maybe look at this other tour we have called Classic Vietnam. It is a private 10 day tour and might suit better. We might also be able to alter that itinerary slightly.

      TravelerWritten January 2023

      I thought the tour cost was $2520, not $3265. Will accomodation in Hanoi be closed to the Old Quarter?

    • On The Go ToursOperatorWritten January 2023

      The single person price was $4490 with 15% off is $3817. Our Hanoi accommodation is based in the French Quarter which isn't far from the Old Quarter but we do find it to be more peaceful and the hotels a touch better on this side.
