- EFEfta· November 20th, 2025I had an incredible trip through Vietnam thanks to Realistic Asia. Every stop was carefully planned and I especially enjoyed the cultural experiences like visiting the imperial city with citadel, tombs, cruising on the Perfume River and shopping at Dong Ba market. The hotels were comfortable and clean, and the guides were friendly, professional, and full of interesting insights. I felt safe and well cared for throughout the journey.Show more

Show moreTrip date: September 2025 - MGManla· November 4th, 2025Traveling across Vietnam for 18 days with Realistic Asia was beyond our expectations. We loved the mixture of cultural experiences, scenic highlights, and hands-on activities, like bamboo basket boat in Hoi An, learning to how to prepare Vietnamese specialties, visiting floating market . The guides made each location come alive with their knowledge and warmth, and the hotels were always in convenient locations with good facilities. Every transfer was timely, and the itinerary flowed perfectly. It was truly a stress-free and unforgettable journey.Show more

Show moreTrip date: September 2025 - NANormand· September 30th, 2025My partner and I had an amazing 18-day journey through Vietnam. The itinerary was perfectly planned, allowing us to explore highlight destinations in Vietnam. The highlights for us was trekking along the rice terraces across villages in Sapa, the landscapes are breathtaking and experience the daily life of and original customs of local people were meaning. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants explore Vietnam in one.Show more

Show moreTrip date: August 2025 - NMNicky· April 13th, 2025Excellent tour management by Realistic Asia, it is full on and personally I did not enjoy the additional leg to Hue which did not justify the 2 days. Would have liked more time in Hoi An and sometimes the turn around between tours was less than 12 hours which was a little frantic. The internal flights with Vietjet were each time 1-6 hours delayed which impacted our downtime but that was nothing to do with RA who even paid for our dinner one night as way of apology. The tours in Sapa and in the delta were the highlights, the trek was great although tougher for two nearing 60. Overall the holiday was an education, meeting delightful people, having fabulous food and seeing incredible sights.Show more

Luisa· March 30th, 2025I had a similar tour without Sapa and had a great experience. Everything was well organised and transfers from/to airport were always private and on time. The hotels were always very well located. In Ho Chi Minh City I would have rather booked a 4* as the average 3* quality is here lower than other cities in Vietnam. Our contact Long Pham was always very helpful at any time of the day. Highly recommended!Show more

Show moreTrip date: March 2025- FBFranziska· January 20th, 2025Automatic translation available in English. View in EnglishGreat travel organization and unforgettable impressions - Highly recommended! The trip was excellently planned and organized by Realistic Asia. A big thank you to our contact person on site, Thang, who always kept us reliably informed about pick-up times and was always available for questions via WhatsApp - his quick responses helped us a lot. The smooth organization of the transfers between the hotels and the various locations was particularly impressive. In most of the hotels, we were able to check in and move into our room straight away, which made our stay very pleasant. We spent a lot of the first week in Hanoi, which didn't always suit us because we returned from Sapa in the evening and Halong Bay in the afternoon. In hindsight, we would have preferred to go straight from Halong Bay to the airport and spend more time in Hoi An instead, where we felt particularly at home. The highlight at the end of our trip was our stay on Phu Quoc to relax. Although we were not accommodated in the originally booked hotel Famiana Resort & Spa directly on the beach, but were rebooked to the Famiana Green Villa, Thang reacted quickly and allowed us to use the beach of the other hotel - a great service! Overall, we gained a wonderful insight into the country, the culture and the breathtaking landscape during our short but very enjoyable stays in the various regions. We can highly recommend Realistic Asia and Thang's service - it was an unforgettable trip!Show more

Kevin· October 26th, 202418 days is quite a long time, I had never been on a trip longer like this before. I loved Sapa the most, where I could admire stunning landscapes and learn about the customs of local minority groups. Other locations were gorgeous as well, and I was thoroughly satisfied! The transportation options were diverse, and tailored to the terrain of each destination, which brought me unique experiences.Show more

Merna· March 20th, 2024This was the trip of a lifetime! From my first contact with Tour Radar to the final plan Long Pham was the perfect adviser. He made several suggestions as to the perfect agenda for us, and was so patient with all my questions. We had a private guide and driver who took us to little villages in the north, introducing us to the people and culture, exploring rice paddy’s, picking tea leaves, tasting local dishes. From visiting the misty Pu Luong area to rafting in Don Village, admiring Halong Bay, and experiencing the early morning floating market in the MeKong Delta the whole three weeks was magical. Thank you Long Pham, and thank you magical Vietnam.Show more

Richard Anthony· March 11th, 2024Overall, it was a good tour. Hotels were in a good central locations, some better than others, all reasonably clean and comfortable with welcoming staff. Breakfast food offered was truly amazing: tasty, in abundance, fresh… Guides were good, courteous, we felt well looked after. Some were more knowledgeable and put more effort then others, but overall we had only one situation where we felt that guide was not executing itinerary well enough and was rushing through, but at the same time this particular part of itinerary could be planed better. When it comes to itinerary, it was diverse, and for most of it well planed. There were some parts that we would avoid as they were to touristy, some places we would have stayed longer, but we also understand that with tour is like that, give and take. We truly enjoyed people that we met along the way and were on tours together. We were never with the same people twice, but we would run into them in cities and hotels and that felt great! Over all we felt well looked after, our agent was in touch with us on a daily bases to make sure that everything is going well and to remind us of the next day schedule. We would book again with Realistic Asia.Show more
