    We had a great time, all the locations and hotels were great. Phi phi was amazing and so beautiful. Our agent Thang was very helpful and attentive to our needs during the trip. He interfaced with hotel staff on our behalf and was always on top of our itinerary, even when we weren't. An absolute professional. Thanks Thang. 5 stars!

    Our family had an amazing time! The operator took care of every little detail, so we could just enjoy. The included flights made it very easy, and we got to see so much in 16 days without feeling rushed. The kids especially loved the Cai Rang Floating Market in Can Tho. The only minor issue was some traffic in Hanoi, but that’s part of the experience.

    We had a wonderful time on the tour. Everything went smoothly and our contact was available whenever we needed to contact him. Chris was incredibly helpful and when one of our flights got cancelled he sorted it and had us booked on another flight within a couple of hours. I would highly recommend this tour.
