    Realistic Asia's team was really supportive and helpful. This journey to Laos and Vietnam was a memorable experience. I was pleased with everything about this trip. All the accommodations, itinerary, guides, and locations were quality and exactly like what they offered, and they made good choices in picking them. With this tour, you shouldn't expect anything fancy, but prepare for fun and enriching experiences. I learned so much about Vietnam and Laos and have a great time explore these countries.

    Realistic Asia delivered excellent service and customer care throughout the trip. The itinerary was filled with interesting historical and cultural sites, as well as beautiful natural sites. Both Laos and Vietnam are such amazing countries. Our consultant, Thang, was excellent at giving advice and information, arranging our requests, and helping us throughout the trip. I'm hooked and can't wait to come back again!

    This is our family's first trip to Asia. We weren't sure what to expect, as these countries are so different from our own. With Thang's help, we made a great choice in choosing this itinerary. It perfectly fit our budget and interests. Thang is such an expert! He patiently answered all our questions, provided helpful information for trip preparation, and shared details about the countries. He also took great care of us throughout the trip. The trip went very well and smoothly, there were some issues, but they were fixed. In averal, we had an amazing time in Laos and Vietnam!

    Amazing tours with amazing customer service! We had no problems at all on the trip. The guides were all so nice, especially our guide in Mekong! Joshua was so interesting and intelligent. The trip was well-organized, and we were lucky to have such beautiful weather. The hotels exceeded our expectations. We saw many beautiful places with rich history. I would thoroughly recommend Realistic Asia to any of my friends.

    The accommodations mostly meet our expectation, the one in Laos was better than we expect in such small country. The itinerary was overall good, even though some places it was to crowed and more experience would be nice. The guide we have in Laos wasnt as good as in Vietnam.

    The Heritage Trail of Laos and Vietnam was an extraordinary trip with so many highlights. Aside from the glitch where we had difficulty finding our driver at the airport in Hanoi, everything else was perfect. It was a great value for the money and time well spent.
