The guides were all very friendly and spoke good English. Thang and his team were always approachable and responded within a few minutes. Special thanks again to the guides in Hoi An, who introduced us to their homeland in a lovely way and looked after us so well. We experienced so many impressions and will never forget the trip.Show more

- Sophie· July 22nd, 2024Thank you realistic Asia for a fantastic Holiday. Being the person who usually plans the holidays it was so nice to not have to think or worry about anything with all transfers, hotels and tours organised for you. Long Pham kept in contact the entire trip, letting me know pick up times and giving tips for certain areas. When I needed to change a pick up time this was not an issue at all. While it was a short trip it was so good to see a bit of everything and have really well organised day tours. If you want a great/busy holiday without having to plan the details this is the best thing to book.Show moreRealistic Asia commented on this reviewDear Sophie, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review!

- Nin· February 3rd, 2024Fantastic tour with great coverage of iconic places from south to north. A range of activities included with great local tour guides as we toured around the country. Mix of activities and free time was a good balance. We were looked after via WhatsApp from tour guide from realistic asia Long Pham the entire time. From Australia he contacted us to make sure everything was set up properly and If we had any questions. Every day in Vietnam, he gave us an update of daily activities, pick up times, local tips and eatery. Accommodation was really good (clean , friendly, comfortable), well located to central towns/cities. Flights were well organised and the pick up / drop off drivers were reliable and organised too.Show moreRealistic Asia commented on this reviewDear Nin, Thanks so much for your review!
