The whole trip was fantastic. The group mix was good although I appreciate this is one thing Exodus have no control over. The pace of the trip was good. The only negative point was in my view was the hotel in Siem Reap which was nowhere near the standard of the others. It was in part dirty and rather dated.
I've never felt sad when leaving a country to come home, but I did when I left Vietnam. What a wonderful and amazing place, full of history, fabulous food and a friendly culture.
We are absolutely in love with Vietnam! Our heartfelt gratitude goes to the tour company for creating an incredible experience for us. Throughout the planning process, the tour operator was incredibly responsive and accommodating. We worked together on multiple iterations of the itinerary until we settled on the perfect one. During the trip, when a small hiccup occurred, but our tour operator swiftly responded and made necessary adjustments to ensure our journey remained seamless. His clarity regarding the inclusions and his expertise in selecting fantastic hotels and guides truly enhanced our experience. A special mention goes to our outstanding guide in Sapa. We highly recommend this as he provided exceptional insights and even hosts homestays. Our time in Hanoi, Sapa, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh, and Halong Bay was nothing short of amazing! We were fortunate to learn so much about Vietnam and its incredible people. The country and its rich culture left a lasting impression on us. Once again, thank you to tour company Travel for making this journey truly unforgettable.
