ASV107

Heather Carlson says:
We arrived back home from our tour, reference ASV107, of Vietnam from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City from 2nd May to 16th May, 2009. We had an excellent trip and would recommend your company and this tour to anyone that wants a guided tour of this type. Our guide, Din Le, (or Le Din, I am not sure)even though he was young, was excellent and very knowledgable, and the choice of destinations and modes of transport were great. The group we were with, even though they ranged in age from 20's to 60's all fitted in well and we are keeping in touch via emails. We had 8 from Australia, 3 from NZ, 2 from US and 1 from Ireland The overnight Traditional Junk cruise was excellent, and even the Reunification Express was a lot of fun and certainly something different. It is the first tour that we have been on, that has included internal flights as part of the package. We appreciated the quality and the location of all the hotels, which were very central, and were, in general, spacious. Everyone in our group commented on what we thought was excellent value for money on this trip. We would definintely use, and recommend your company to our friends and colleagues. In fact I have forward our itinerary on to quite a few people at work who are interested in going to Vietnam in the near future.
Introduction: “There is nothing more precious than independence and freedom” - Ho Chi Minh. Vietnam is emerging as one of the worlds greatest travel destinations. In this trip, which covers Vietnam in fifteen days, we witness the country’s great diversity. From Hanoi in the north, to the miles of sandy beaches in the south, from the great cities of Ho Chi Minh, Hanoi and Hue, to the cooler climes of the Central Highlands area of Dalat. Arriving in Hanoi - the capital - a city full of lakes and boulevards, we visit Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum and take a walk through the bustling old quarter. In Halong Bay we stay on a traditional junk boat cruising the thousands of limestone islets whilst being served world-renowned Vietnamese cuisine. Then it's aboard the Reunification Express for our overnight journey to Hue, the former capital and seat of the Nguyen dynasty. The Emperor's Mausoleums make it a cultural highlight. From there to the old trading port of Hoi An, a beautiful riverside town, where tailors shops abound, and on for an overnight stop at the resort of Nha Trang. We then head into the Central Highlands to spend time exploring Dalat and the surrounding area. Next stop Ho Chi Minh City, where a highlight is a tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels, an underground base that hid 10,000 members of the Communist Vietcong army. Our final day is free to explore Saigon, or take an optional trip to the Mekong Delta.
