What people love about South East Asia Tours for Young Adults
- Amazing Vietnam & Cambodia & Thailand ends Bangkok (4 Star Hotels)
Travel Talk gave us wring information of the hotel on the first night. 2 airplanes included on the trip they did not provide me with flight ticket. 2 of the attractions included on the trip did not happen due to construction on the road that has been going on for a year. They should replace these 2 attractions with something else. The whole day was spent in bus. Guides were very good. Otherwise everything went well.
- Fantastic Cambodia & Thailand (4 Star Hotels)
Perfect! Very well organized. Very good, high class hotels. Very helpful, friendly and competent Tour Guides. Our group was only three persons and was done with comfortable Mini- Vans, so it was nearly a " private tour".
- Cambodia to Vietnam: Night Markets & Noodle-Making
Fantastic trip, well worth the money and I couldn't have asked for a better tour guide Bun was amazing!!
