We organized our trip in Vietnam, including 2 days to Halong Bay with the agency BestPrice Travel and the support of Ms. Kim.
Everything was really perfect, the drivers were always punctual and kind, the guides, the internal transportation, and the hotels were all good. Vietnam is a fantastic country and Halong Bay is stunning. I recommend everyone to go and use this agency.
