Most memorable was staying in a remote raft house in the middle of a lake surrounded by rainforest and gibbons!
(more)The Halong Bay overnight boat trip was fascinating, the trip into the Mekong Delta most enjoyable, but perhaps the two days in Hoi An gave us the best flavour of the country - varied activities and relaxing.
(more)Sailing around Halong bay, Motor cycling through the back streets of Hue, dancing with the children in the villages were the highlights. (more)We were immersed in this really poor country, with the hint of past traumatic occupation and wars, and received the most generous opening of hearts from this 80% buddhist country. (more)
Excellent - thank you very much. All provisions and services were provided by locals and the relationship the guide had with them was obviously due to good relationships in place.
(more)Snorkelling for the first time in Nha Trang (and second time in Ko Phi Phi!) was fantastic, jungle trekking in both Thailand and Malaysia was awesome...Outstanding - varied, educational and stacks of fun. (more)The most memorable occasion was the meal prepared for us by the family in the house on stilts and the chance to try the local delicacy (afterwards), fried tarantula. (more)
Most memorable were Angkor Wat and the other temples around Siem Reap. Home Stay near Vinh Long. (more)The most memorable part was the motorbike tour in Hue & overnight boat trip on Halong Bay. We stayed in lovely owned hotels & ate in family owned restaurants. (more)I enjoyed the homestay the most as I felt like we got to understand a little bit about the people and managed to keep fit with the kids :) (more)The lovely boat trip and time spent in the Mekong Delta were the most memorable parts of the holiday. (more)The land was beautiful, the people friendly, and the prices exceptional. The operator’s selection of hotels was very good, especially the luxurious Hilton Hanoi Opera, where we spent the final 4 nights. (more)
The most memorable parts of our trip must be the crazy cyclo tour through the streets of Saigon and eating insects in a bar overlooking Phnom Penh! (more)Amongst the highlights were the two days shopping in Hoi An, the cooking lesson in Vietnamese cuisine, the trip to the local mud bath and whizzing around the countryside, off the beaten track, on the back of a motorbike taxi. (more)Much of the holiday was memorable, the madness of Saigon, the beautiful town of Hoi An, exploring Hue and surrounding countryside by motorbike, the wonderful Ha Long Bay, the delicious food......I could go on!

The holiday we booked with you to Vietnam was everything I hoped it would be and more! Perfect for families as there was something of interest for everyone. (more)
Most memorable was cycling through the paddy fields in Vietnam - something few tourists would normally see in Vietnam... Very well organised & good local guides with excellent knowledge... Already looking for a new challenge to work towards and more countries to experience.

The whole holiday was wonderful, memorable experience. However, the culture and people of Cambodia touched my heart in a very special way. Thanks to our guide, Channy, our small group had a chance to visit Angkor temples in times when they were not overcrowded (more)
Enjoy it! Don't take a jumper for the evening (August). Take extra money for all the tips: coach drivers, travel guides etc. (more)We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
