As amazing as it was to visit the caves, the tour organization itself was very dodgy. We started out from Hue by an incredibly cramped bus for the 4 hour drive to Phong Nha. Our tour representative (I can't call her our "guide" because she did NO guiding) on the first day was very weak with information. The overnight stay was just OK. On the second day we had a different guide that was markedly better. Overall the tour just seemed to be cobbled together with various people joining and leaving the group. No cohesion.

Duo Thoy was a wonderful, enthusiastic tour guide and so full of knowledge. She really wanted to ensure we had the best tour within the time we had as we were picked up from the cruise port for the day. Thankfully it was a Sunday so the trip to Hanoi was just over 2 hours each way. Highly recommended !

This trip is so worth it! It was well organized from start to finish. My driver, Sang, was great. He picked me up on time and was friendly. He also Waited and allowed me to leave stuff in the car. My guide was also excellent. He had been walking the mountain for 15 years so knew lots of great facts and all the less waked paths! He is also great on the camera. Would definitely recommend this trip!

My friend and I had the best time on this tour. Ant was amazing and gave us a delicious and unforgettable experience of Hanoi City! It was one of our favorite nights of the trip. This is a must do in Hanoi... Especially if Ant is your guide!

The tour was just wonderful! And Jay was by far one of the most engaging individuals that put a huge smile on both of the kids faces. We would recommend this place in a heartbeat!

Our journey through this eclectic city filled with colorful surprises! The local cuisine promises a sensory delight that enchanted our taste buds. Embrace the thrill, savor every moment, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure in this dynamic and vibrant destination!

Indulging in the captivating ambiance of Mango was an absolute delight! The impeccable service, warm company, and welcoming atmosphere made for an unforgettable experience. Roaming through the vibrant market stands out as a cherished memory, offering an enriching glimpse into diverse culinary traditions. Savoring the decadent Vietnamese egg coffee was a delightful surprise that added an extra layer of charm to the day. The general experience was downright staggering.

The experience lived up to its advertised promises, with a generous and knowledgeable guide leading the way. The lunch provided was enjoyable, adding to the overall experience. However, when competing with other groups, the guide's strained voice made it difficult to hear. To address this, I suggest providing more information while in transit or outside venues, where there's less ambient noise. Despite this minor issue, the tour provided a very comprehensive introduction to Hanoi, and I came away with a deeper understanding of the city.

Our time in Sa Pa and its neighboring villages was truly memorable. Guided by the exceptional Su, we were immersed in a world of warmth, information, and cultural richness. Su's friendliness and knowledge enriched our journey, offering insights into local customs and fostering positive interactions within our group. I wholeheartedly endorse the hiking tour through the villages; it provides a profound understanding of the diverse peoples inhabiting this region. A big thank you to Su for her outstanding guidance—we couldn't have asked for a better experience!

The young female guide was truly excellent, possessing a commendable command of English and a wealth of knowledge that made our tour engaging and informative. We were fortunate to witness the changing of the guard at the mausoleum, explore Ho Chi Minh's residence and government buildings, and admire the vintage cars he once used. Additionally, our itinerary included visits to the university, temples, and a nearby art gallery, providing a well-rounded cultural experience. To cap off our day, we enjoyed a delightful Vietnamese meal at a charming restaurant near St. Peter's Church in the Old Quarter, conveniently close to my hotel.

We had a fantastic guide who not only ensured we saw all the key sights but also went above and beyond by assisting us with changing hotels—an example of excellent service! The Temple of Literature left us in awe with its impressive architecture and history. However, our experiences at the 'Hanoi Hilton' and War Museum were less impactful. Understandably, historical presentations often reflect the perspective of the victors, and this was noticeable during our visit. Nevertheless, considering the immense suffering endured by the Vietnamese during the 'American War,' this bias is understandable.

Su was an excellent tour guide, with proficient English skills. Although February weather brought foggy cold conditions with a chance of rain, we were fortunate to experience rainfall only on the last day. The hiking trails spanning 3-6 miles through hills and streets were muddy and slippery, emphasizing the necessity of wearing hiking shoes. Despite the rice fields not being planted yet, we witnessed picturesque hillside landscapes adorned with grass and puddles of water. The accommodations, including the hotel and homestay, were satisfactory, while the food met our expectations. Overall, the tour provided good value, though it's worth noting that it may not be suitable for elderly individuals or those with mobility issues. Nevertheless, it was a delightful opportunity to immerse ourselves in the culture of Sapa and gain insights into its rich heritage.

Our day in Hue was truly great, all thanks to our driver Hoa. Not only did he transport us safely, but he also enriched our experience by providing detailed explanations about the tombs, pagodas, and the citadel throughout the journey. His thoughtfulness was evident as he provided water to keep us refreshed on the hot day. Additionally, his humor added an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. Thanks to Hoa, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Hue and appreciated his invaluable contributions to our experience.

Kier Simon was a great guide for 2 days We were a group of 5 Tonle Sap Lake day 1 Angkor Wat day 2 Both he and his driver coordinated the days beautifully. Simon as he asked to be called ,was funny, informative, and patient, given that we were an older ! group. He is very knowledgeable about his country.

The Bamboo Bridge is truly remarkable and it was made by the locals. Irrawaddy dolphin trip on the Mekong river was relaxing and magical. We did see the dolphins. Royal Palace is a MUST!!! Steeped in history. The magnificent silver and gold items gave one insight into Cambodian life and the Royal family. Exquisite ornate architecture clearly in abundance . Loved every moment. The Cambodians are all hardworking, peaceful and creative folk!
