    Thank you realistic Asia for a fantastic Holiday. Being the person who usually plans the holidays it was so nice to not have to think or worry about anything with all transfers, hotels and tours organised for you. Long Pham kept in contact the entire trip, letting me know pick up times and giving tips for certain areas. When I needed to change a pick up time this was not an issue at all. While it was a short trip it was so good to see a bit of everything and have really well organised day tours. If you want a great/busy holiday without having to plan the details this is the best thing to book.

    Fantastic tour with great coverage of iconic places from south to north. A range of activities included with great local tour guides as we toured around the country. Mix of activities and free time was a good balance. We were looked after via WhatsApp from tour guide from realistic asia Long Pham the entire time. From Australia he contacted us to make sure everything was set up properly and If we had any questions. Every day in Vietnam, he gave us an update of daily activities, pick up times, local tips and eatery. Accommodation was really good (clean , friendly, comfortable), well located to central towns/cities. Flights were well organised and the pick up / drop off drivers were reliable and organised too.

    Excellent tour with a great balance between being busy and having time to relax. Extremely well organised with quality hotels, guides and transport including internal flights. It was so wonderful to have these things organised for us… it took so much stress out of the trip knowing someone else was taking care of all of this for us. We upgraded to four star hotels and all were brilliant. Adora Art Hotel in HCMC was a highlight as was the Tirant Hotel in Hanoi. Highly recommend this tour especially for a family. We have four teenaged children who absolutely loved it. Five stars!!!!

    This is mainly a service for booking accommodation, transfers and travel between cities rather than group travel in an organised tour. There are a couple of included day tours with the itinerary but most of the time is free to organise as you like (although the tour organisers provide lots of suggestions). The service is excellent throughout. Vietnam is very well adapted to tourists - everything is easy.

    We had an amazing time in Vietnam with Realistic Asia. Well organized, they always kept in touch and Long Phan was easy to get in contact with when we needed. 4/5 because I think the hotel in Hue can be better, it was a bit far away from the main sites and had a few maintenance issues. Otherwise accommodation and activities were 5/5! Highly recommend!

    Well planned tour giving on overall taste and feel of the coastal cities of Vietnam. The in country tour operator, Realistic Asia, and specially Lucy Do, who was my travel coordinator was superb. All accommodations were accurately described, drivers and transportation were on time, and tours were well-coordinated. Accommodations and transportation was clean and well-kept.
