First of all, a big THANK YOU!! for a wonderful experience. The hotels choice was great as a matter of fact, better than expected. The food was abundant and delicious and also gave us a good idea about the local cuisine.
Typhoon Yagi showed up but did not ruin our plans. We enjoyed Halong Bay and despite the damage in Hanoi we manage to enjoy the Water Puppet show and visited the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum.
You asked what can improve on an already excellent tour. I think that on free days most people would like to have some options that they can pick and pay outside the tour. That is what cruise lines do. In Saigon we asked our guide for a tour of the Cu Chi tunnels and he was able to organize it for the afternoon after the city tour. It was worth the effort and money.
We enjoyed the cultural shows and under the suggestion of Mr. Tuan in Hoi An we saw a fantastic show that night. A list of potential cultural activities in the different cities that we visited, if known ahead of time, would help to plan what to do in the evenings.
In summary this was an unforgettable experience. We loved the landscape, the people, friendly and courteous, the culture, the shows and the food. The only thing we all would add is more time!
Thanks again and please share our gratitude with the rest of your team. Less
We are having a blast. Hanoi was a bit difficult at first since it was so hectic, but the trip got a lot better once we visited Halong Bay and then Saigon. I'm already planning to come back to Saigon next year.

The tour guides have been phenomenal. Compared to other tours we've done around the world, the tour guides here have been incredibly engaging and helpful to us. They've helped makw this trip become the perfect introduction trip to Vietnam. My two favorite guides have been Hung in Halong and David in Mekong.
We've also gotten a couple massages in Vietnam, and that has been great to add in some relaxation to the trip. Less
