    I had the best time on the Vietnam intro 12 day tour. This was my last stop on my 4 and a half month journey and I couldn't have asked for a better country to end on. Phatty was a brilliant tour leader and his knowledge and passion for his country and job really shows. He was very funny, organised and thoughtful as we had two birthdays on the trip which he made extra special. Lachie also joined us on our tour and he was a great addition to the group. I had the best time made even more special by Phatty and Lachie. Thank you both!

    The itinerary was perfectly paced it had enough free time to do your own thing and alot of activities to keep you active. Our guide Phat Doan was 100/10 could not speak higher of him great knowledge of everywhere and a great human. Dont think there is much more you need to introduce to help get better, great experience.

    Bobby was the best tour guide we could have ever asked for. He is funny and can be one of the lads when he needs to be. It really helped that he is native to Vietnam as he could teach us about the history and culture in more depth than someone else. Would totally recommend him and travel again if I could
