- Bill· February 24th, 2025Well planned and organized tour. Best to visit the country in the winter period however it is still quite hot and humid.Show more
BestPrice Travel commented on this reviewThank you for your kind feedback! We're so glad to hear you found the tour well-planned and organized. You’re absolutely right — winter is one of the best times to visit, though the tropical heat can still surprise you! We truly appreciate you... Show moreTrip date: September 2024 - EBErica· May 5th, 2024The tour was very good. Our guide Li in Sapa was excellent. She was extremely knowledgeable and was from one of the local villages in the area. Fabulous couple of days. Swan cruises on Halong Bay was also very good. The staff were excellent and we went to a quiet part of the Bay. Best price Tour staff were very responsive and we would recommend their company.Show moreTrip date: February 2024

Millie at Best Travel was in constant contact, she booked us really nice hotels and the Halong Bay cruise was better than we'd hoped for that budget. Great value and service.

- DCDanica· September 26th, 2022This was a great way to see and stay in both Sapa and Ha Long Bay, two destinations in the north that I really wanted to see and are also somewhat tricky to get to on your own. - The tour coordinators were very kind and accommodating, helping to build an itinerary that fit my travel dates. - As with most tours in Asia, this was a couple of separate tours/tour companies strung together - meaning you will be with different guides and guests throughout your journey. The coordination between them was good, with only one mishap where we ended up at the wrong hotel in Sapa. - Most of the travel was comfortable: a lie flat sleeper bus to Sapa, a van with large reclining seats (aka a limousine) back to Hanoi, a limousine bus to Sapa, and a regular bus back to Hanoi. - Accommodations were also decent! 3* hotels with free breakfast in Sapa and Hanoi, and the boat (we were on Swam Cruise) was great. - The trek in Sapa was really tough! Just be prepared. - Ha Long Bay was beautiful and the cruise staff very accommodating! Nobody mentions or acknowledges it, but the cruise industry there is taking quite a toll on the environment there, leaving trash behind, etc. - Food was not memorable for me, since I prefer local specialties and street food. Just know the food on this tour is not representative of the actual cuisine of Vietnam! Also note that this is a consequence of the locations (Sapa, HLB) and not the tour coordinators themselves.Show moreTrip date: September 2022
