Reasons I Can’t Wait to Travel Vietnam

New year, new travels– so I’m starting to plan my trips. I’m thinking it’s time to get over to Vietnam, because there are some pretty awesome things I haven’t seen or done there yet. So I’m building my Bucket List for Vietnam. Here’s what I…

"Awesome experience"

Reviewed On: Dec 13, 2019

We had an awesome experience with ATA, right from the very beginning when we started asking for the best trip around Indochina. The tours were well organised and well coordinated. Our sincere gratitude to Mr. Hong, for being such an awesome tour guide. Shannon-United Kingdom

"11 days of enjoyment"

Reviewed On: Jan 01, 1970

We have never been to Vietnam or Cambodia and from research we identified Asia Tour Advisor as the company that could meet our requirements. Tam was our point of contact and she was great. The hotels, itinerary, food and expert guides all made for a wonderful 11 days. The guides were exceptional for their knowledge and professionality. Thank you. Yat Mun -Malaysia

"First class hospitality"

Reviewed On: Sep 06, 2019

My husband and I spent 3 days 2 nights on the Azalea Cruise as part of our honeymoon trip in Vietnam. Jaycee and Diego were amazing at ensuring we knew the itinerary and providing the entertainment including spring roll making. Our waiter, Bobby was exceptional providing first class service every night. We felt like the King and Queen! The rooms were beautifully presented and the trips were well varied to include cycling and kayaking. Some people only did the 2 day 1 night cruise but they seemed rushed so I would definitely recommend the longer cruise if budget allows. Maddie Australia

"14 Day Hanoi to Cambodia Tour"

Reviewed On: Aug 08, 2019

Right from the very first email from Hai at the booking office, we knew we had made the right decision in booking with Asia Tour Advisor. They were extremely professional and really wanted to make our holiday a worthwhile and enjoyable experience for us! They were waiting for us at Hanoi airport to take us to our hotel where we would meet up with the others on our tour, and were very attentive and helpful right from the outset. The trip to Ha Long Bay, for the overnight cruise was really enjoyable and the cruise was exceptional too! After short flight to Da Nang and then when we arrived at our hotel in Hoi An, we were absolutely blown away. What a lovely place, and Hoi An is beautiful, and the guide we had on our walking tour of the Ancient Town, Mr. Son, was excellent.We then flew down to Ho Chi Minh City and again the guides and drivers were first class! We had a very enjoyable trip on the Mekong Delta one day, and the next, as we had already done the Cu Chi Tunnels and Palace trips previously, went on a shopping trip in the morning, and a Moto bike trip around the City, in the afternoon. Both were really enjoyable, and our guide, Bau, was a mine of information and a terrific guide. We bought a raincoat on our bike trip and I gave the lady too much money for it and while she took my money and said nothing, Bau saw what had happened and made her refund my money, saving us a lot of money! We were most impressed with him and his integrity and honesty. We then- all 8 of us in our tour party, went to spend the night in a local Homestay, and again this was a real experience for all of us! The hostess, Hanh, welcomed us and treated us like long lost family members, and the dinner that night just kept on coming as she cooked more and more food for us! We then caught the flight the next morning to Siem Reap, Cambodia, and while we probably wouldn't do that again, it was an eye opener too! The hotel in Siem Reap was lovely, and the staff were all really gracious and helpful, and was situated very handily to the town and it's markets etc. the visit to Angkor Wat and the other temples was amazing and extremely rewarding and we took many photos. The whole tour was of an exceptionally high standard right from the very outset, and Asia Tour Advisor are a very professional, well organised and well run company, who seem to have the right guides and drivers for the trips and visits. The staff are first class, as are the hotels they use, and the fact that once we had booked, we didn't have to worry about booking anything else was great! We highly recommend Asia Tour Advisor and would happily use them again and will definitely be recommending them to our friends and family. Thank you for a fantastic 14 day tour!

"Ancient Chiangmai"

Reviewed On: Jun 10, 2016

We have nothing to complain about Asia Advisor Tour services. Their arrangement was worked so well in a 15 day trip. Their assistances were too nice and helpful especially the tourguide with good English speaking and professional skill at guiding tourists. Incredible foods with the nice hotels in variable places were such good service provider systems. Everything was out of expectation that we have never expectef prior to the trip. Please send our compliments to your staffs as my big thanks from us. Nice to spend time with Asia!

"Tasty and Yummy meals"

Reviewed On: May 06, 2016

Thanks to Asia for your contribution in our fabulous time. You guys were an important part of our memorable journey. With the well-versed tourguide, we have a good view of Thailand cultures and its specific architectures.Especially it was delicous and tasty food such as Tom Yum which is a mix flavors. The hotels are clean,comfortable and have a great location standby. Spending time with Asia Tour Adivisors is the great and memorable.I would come back Thailand someday with Asia Tour Advisors.

"Immersed in Myanmar temples"

Reviewed On: Jul 20, 2016

When visiting temples in Myanmar, there is a lot of taking shoes on and off at temples so make sure you have shoes that are easy to take off . I was impressive by the reclining Buddha at Monywa where contains the tallest standing and one of the longest reclining Buddhas in Myanmar. It can be seen from a long distance . The highlight was the tours with our guide who made Myanmar come alive for us. His knowledge and passion for his country made the trip a cultural feast.It is well worth a tou Read More

"Myanmar tour in June 2015"

Reviewed On: Aug 04, 2015

Excellent itinerary and guides. They were always early for pickups, and very helpful with airport check ins (internal and international). If you're visiting villages and feeling benevolent, I'd suggest taking some basic supplies to donate to schools. Dress locally (wear a longhi and flip-flops) and learn a few phrases - your connection with the locals will be transformed. Myanmar Package Tours
