We really enjoyed ourselves This is a very busy tour with lots of variety. Although a lot of time was spent travelling (as you'd expect from a tour covering 1500 miles in 14 days) a great many different things were packed into the holiday (eg 1000 years of history, food, shopping, cycling, kayaking, walking, boating, caves, puppet show.) Vietnam was more prosperous and sophisticated than I had imagined, with free wi-fi in every accommodation and restaurants. Everything was very clean and well organised. Things ran on time, including the 12 hour overnight train departed on time and arrived early. The people were friendly and smiling.
Our two week trip with this travel specialist around Vietnam was fantastic. We are family of 7 with 3 kids. Using this service is a good investment due to its efficiency and reliability. Our tour guides were excellent, the hotels were lovely, and the schedule was tailored to our preferences. Junie worked with us until everything was perfect and her responses were detailed and quick. We have used this agency before for our travels to Southeast Asia. Using them to organize our travels has been a fantastic decision. We think this is the best place to arrange a trip.
A comprehensive North to South tour of Vietnam On previous trips with this tour operator many people were saying that they were very eager to visit Vietnam next. So I thought I would see for myself if it was as good as people were thinking. A year earlier I had visited China with this operator, and if I'm honest I would have to say that China is by far the better option in terms of things to see, food, and the tourist experience. Vietnam is a country being swamped by tourists but they are still only just learning how to cope with that influx, and are financially challenged in their efforts to do so. Having said all that, I would urge you to see Vietnam first rather than China, because if you see China first you may be unimpressed with Vietnam
