  Brilliant holiday and excellent tour company with Legend. Vietnam and Cambodia have so much to see, lovely food and very friendly people. Packed itinerary and very well organised by Danny. All the local tour guides were excellent. Leading up to the holiday Tony was very helpful in responding to any queries. The 3* accommodation was very good but if we went again we would upgrade to 4* for the additional luxury. Thanks to Legend travel for giving me and my son a holiday that we will never forget

  Great and really well organized tour. Gives you the freedom to explore on your own as well as giving you a structured and full experience and plan for most days to see many of the main sites in Vietnam and Cambodia in a short time span. I met some lovely people on the tour and really enjoyed the activities that I took part in. The tours of Cu Chi tunnels and Hoi An markets are excellent. On one of my free evenings in Hanoi I arranged to see the water puppets and in Hoi An I saw the Hoi An Memories show. Both these are things that you should arrange in addition to the tour as they are excellent experiences.

  There are a lot of options available when looking for a tour of Vietnam and Cambodia. I was looking for a reasonably small group (less than 12) and a good itinerary. I also then checked with reviews and trip advisor before selecting the Legend 12 day Vietnam and Cambodia tour. What a great choice! From the moment I booked I couldn't be happier with the level of contact and feedback from the group and Legend. They promptly answered any questions and guided me through the visa processes for the two countries. On arrival in Hanoi we were met by the first of our excellent guides and drivers. We had booked the 4 star hotel package and each hotel on the trip was excellent. Arrival day was a transfer to the hotel and a chance to meet Danny, our trip manager. He had an updated tour package pre-printed for us with all the details and his WhatsApp number so we could ask any questions during our trip. Danny never failed to respond on WhatsApp promptly and always provided excellent service. Hanoi is an interesting start into Vietnam. The streets of the old quarter are small, packed with people and traffic. The footpaths seem strictly reserved for motorbike parking so you end up walking on the road which is.... interesting. The tour of pagodas and temples was topped off with a visit to the Tomb of Ho Chi MInh himself, perfectly embalmed. There was plenty of free time after 4pm to walk the streets and find good restaurants. Our tour group comprised a tight 3 who completed the full12 day tour, 2 more who did all of Vietnam and 3 or 4 who aligned in various locations so no more than 8 in total at any time. We formed good friendships and appreciated the smaller tour vans and more personalized service we got. You get a more personal experience with the guide and more opportunity to interact. I was actually very impressed how well Legend organizes the many tours it runs to overlap, mix and mingle, and then go their separate ways along the whole of the 12 days. The trip from Hanoi to Halong Bay covers rice paddy field land and some interesting countryside. The damage from the recent typhoon evident everywhere with almost all trees extensively damaged and missing roofs on industrial buildings. Our boat was changed as there was a lot of damaged and sunken boats in Halong Bay marina. I counted 10 sunken boats just in our area. The new boat was excellent, really nice cabins and a great crew. The weather was not so good but did not deter our enjoyment. A real highlight is a visit to the caves, I was not expecting this and even if I had been told about them, they still would exceed expectations. Next a return van to Hanoi to pick up our bags and off to the airport for the flight to Hoi An. Both my wife and I really enjoyed Hoi An. It has a slower, quieter (and much cleaner) feel to it than Hanoi and our hotel (Lantana Riverside) was the best hotel we stayed in, with great staff, and excellent pool and a restaurant next to the river we ate at three times. A market tour the next day was fascinating and we liked the fact you could safely walk on footpaths. You see some interesting older buildings and have time for coffee and relaxing. Gave a good idea on what to visit in our free time. The tour to My Son outside Hoi An to 10th century temples was excellent, again something I was not expecting. The next day was almost an entire free day which we really appreciated. We visited the beach and enjoyed iced coffee and a swim. Nice to recharge before Ho Chi Minh city (HCMC). HCMC is even busier than Hanoi but we spent most of our days out of it. The Cu Chi tunnels are interesting as is the chance to fire an AK46 or M16 machine gun. The Mekong Delta boat trip was OK. It showed us how industrious the locals are in finding ways to make some money through their own hard work and limited resources, and everyone was so nice you didn't feel the pressure or hustle you get in places like Egypt. The side visit to the temple with 4 separate Buddhas was really good. Then off to Siem Reap in Cambodia for the main highlight, Angkor Wat. We had an early morning pickup (5am) from HCMC and arrived into the nearly deserted Siem Reap airport in Cambodia at 9am. Too early to check into a hotel so off to Banteay Srei, probably the most lavishly detailed of the many temples we were about to see. the carving into sandstone is unbelievable, and the fact it has lasted 1000 years just adds to the experience. The airport is new and 1 hour from Seim Reap which doesn't make any sense as you drive along endless empty flat land to get there. Making the trip to Bateay Srei makes the trip back to the hotel more enjoyable. We stopped for lunch but were served western food (fish and chips or pork chops and mashed potato), not sure why they thought we wanted anything other than Cambodian food, The next day was a visit to 6 temples starting with Angkor Wat itself. Having been right through Egypt, and Petra in Jordan amongst many other amazing historical sites I wasn't expecting to be blown away as much as I was. This really is one of the bucket list places to visit. Stunning!. It actually reinforced how little I knew about Asian culture and history. Angkor Wat was the largest city on earth in the 10th century with 1.1M people. There are just so many amazing temples, but be prepared for climbing some steep steps if you want to visit the upper parts. The final temple of the day was the 'Tomb Raider' site Ta Prohm Temple. It really shows you what condition the temples had fallen into before the massive reconstructions carried out by the French, German and mainly Indian Governments. I really couldn't fault Legen anywhere, a great trip, great guides, faultless planning and excellent hotels. Don't hesitate to book with them. Special shout out to Danny who couldn't have been more helpful.

  The organisation was good just sad that at the airport the people to meet you with your name displayed were never actually there waiting, You had to look for them. The first hotel in Hanoi was a changed hotel and was way below the standard of the rest. This needs to be addressed not out of convenience for the travel company but with the customer in mind. The contact person from Legend Travel tried his best and we gave him feedback on the issues.The tour and special visits and meals were generally of a good quality. On one occasion the one tour guide's English was quite poor so we had to ask him to repeat a lot. There needs to be an emphasis that the time allocated for a tour is the time paid for and tour guides should STOP looking for ways to perhaps shorten the trips so they can finish early. Hoi An and Saigon were very good as was Siem Reap. The tour guide in the latter was very good. Some of us query the real extra cost of the internal airfares and despite a request for the cost of each individual flight no answer was forthcoming. The sites we visited were worth every minute of a visit and I would recommend the itinerary they provide. I wish that Tour Radar advertised the full price and not have the add ons in the small writing, where add ons are NOT optional.
