    Everything was better than anticipated, Pick up drop off, being met by Mr Danny, the timing was impeccable and Halong Bay tour excellent.

    This is a mix of good and not so good review. First, day 1 tour guide was excellent. He has all the energy to explain history and culture. We are all exhausted but satisfied. The second tour day ( Thrang An and the Pagoda) the tour guide ask us to place our review while we still in the van. I shouldn’t followed what he asked us to do but he was hovering around and just to stop him to do it we decided to do the review then. It was unfortunate too that my other sister and my niece was unable to come due to paperworks- but that is our issue. But what i feel is inconsiderate is that, the hotel where we are supposed to stay for 2 rooms and paid all throughout the trip were not utilized as such. The hotel La Dolce Vita allowed us to use the 2 rooms when we arrived but then asked us to squeezed in 1 room after the first day. Considering the fact that these are all paid in full prior to us coming. The travel agency - Legend group said they will reimburse me 10% of the cost since it was cancelled last minute but as of this time I haven’t received any reimbursed amount. I fell in love with Vietnam and planning to explore other parts of the country but I guess I wont be using again the same travel agency.

    This was the first time my husband and I had been on a tour. We travel for around 6 months a year and normally organize everything ourselves. However, this was our first visit to Vietnam, and we only had a week, so we decided on a tour to experience as much as possible in that time frame. We couldn't have been happier! From the pre-tour correspondence with Tony, who answered all my questions promptly and satisfactorily, to our interactions with the tour co-ordinator Danny in Vietnam, everything was wonderful and ran like clockwork. The tours were informative and interesting, and the guides were friendly and efficient. The trip to Halong Bay was perfect. Accommodations in Vietnam and on the boat were first-class (we did upgrade on both). Altogether a fantastic experience and we wouldn't hesitate to book through Tourradar and Legend Travel Group again. Thank you for everything!

    Well organized tour! Stayed at TK123 hotel where the staff were really friendly, the rooms themselves were clean and the hotel itself was s well located for those on a budget. The itinerary moves a bit fast paced but that can be expected considering the time frame I purchased and how much is included / the relative distances to everything. I had requested the vegetarian/vegan meal and found that at all times my dietary requirements were met. A big thanks to Danny who organized the tour, and gave helpful tips upon my arrival! He was always available to make sure things were running smoothly before each day started.

    The tour has run smoothly from the beginning till the end. Danny, our tour coordinator was very helpful and friendly. He went the extra mile to make sure we were all satisfied with our holiday such as one late night when we came back to the hotel late at night, we didn’t have anything to eat while we were out, we were hungry, he offered to get some vietnamese baguettes and brought them back to us. The hotel we stayed for 3 nights was decent, room was big, breakfast was ok, staff was helpful. The Halong Bay cruise was a 5 star cruise, also upgraded by Danny. The cruise was spotless and elegant, especially the room. There were only 10 rooms on a boat, but we were lucky to join only another 12 extra guests on the boat, feeling like a VIP. It reminds us the oriental express train in the movie. Members of staff there were also wonderful and very friendly. Definitely recommend this tour.

    Awesome experience! I felt like I was able to capture the best of Hanoi in 5 days and the boat cruise was unreal! Traffic is crazy weather walking in a car so be prepared. That would be my only advice on visiting Vietnam in general
