I have not been on a group tour in over 35 years and was anxious how it would be traveling with 16 other individuals and a tour guide. I am quite independent when I travel. I was also the only American in a group of 16 people, the others being from England, Scotland and Wales. My fears were put to rest almost immediately. These people all became friends over the two week period - a very cohesive, easy going and adventurous group. Our tour guide, Cong, was amazing - very organized and on top of every little detail, making sure every one of us knew exactly what the day’s schedule would be. Exodus is a very conscious tour company and Cong, whenever possible, made sure our activities supported the people of Vietnam in cities and the rural areas. I learned and saw so much, and though it was at a bit faster pace than I might have gone on my own, it worked. What an amazing country. Each place we visited was different and offered unique insights into the Vietnamese culture. I would highly recommend this tour and Cong, our guide, gets an A+.
We had a fantastic experience travelling the length of Vietnam. What a beautiful country. We certainly saw the main cities and towns. The internal flight was good and efficient and even the overnight train was good. The food was wonderful - lots of variety and very fresh. Hotels were very good, particularly in Hoi An. Parts of the trip were very poignant learning more about Vietnam's recent history - wonderful to see how much of Vietnam has recovered. Will be interesting to see Vietnam in 20 years time - seems to be developing fast. I would love to return to see more of the mountains and countryside in the North.
