Traveler Stories

Notes from guests who traveled across Vietnam with our local guides.

★★★★★ 4.9 average · 418 reviews

14-Day North-to-South & Ha Giang Loop

“Booking directly with the Hanoi team meant we rode pillion with local Hmong guides in Ha Giang and stayed on a quiet wooden boat in Lan Ha Bay for less than half what overseas agencies quoted.”

Marcus & Elena Vance · United States · 14-Day North-to-South & Ha Giang Loop

Tu Lan Cave Trek & Hai Van Pass (8 Days)

“Swimming into river caves in Phong Nha and camping beside underground waterfalls felt effortless thanks to the guides and camp crew. Everything was clear before we left Melbourne.”

Liam O’Connor · Australia · Tu Lan Cave Trek & Hai Van Pass (8 Days)

21-Day Classic Vietnam & Mekong Delta

“From early morning sampans in Ninh Binh before the crowds arrived to evening street food walks in Saigon, every guide shared genuine local history and warmth.”

Sophie & Claire Beaumont · United Kingdom · 21-Day Classic Vietnam & Mekong Delta
