    Bobby has been an amazing guide and group leader to us. He is so knowledgeable about the country and its history. You can really tell how much his job and his country mean to him. He never fails to make you smile, laugh and feel well included in the group. He was so enthusiastic and had so much energy and he made sure everything ran so smoothly. Thank you Bobby for the fun and the facts! ❤️

    Amazing tour that really immerses you into the Vietnamese culture. Great mix of activities and also free time to explore by yourself, all lead by a great guide (shout out to Liam Birtles) who really makes sure you are treated like a passenger queen 👑 The food was out of this world, so many options of great fresh local dishes, alongside some offering some home comforts if you’re not so adventurous. They go out of their way to make sure you have the best experience, especially if you have specific dietary requirements, so you can have total faith that you’ll be safe throughout your trip. Definitely would recommend this!
