From the day I requested information about Vietnam tour packages to the day we finished our awesome tour, Auasia Travel (Sunny) was in touch with us and shared all required details promptly. It was very easy to work with them and they helped us crafting the best itinerary covering all areas including scenery, experience and relaxing across Hanoi, Saigon. All the guides we met were excellent with good English and knowledge and all the drivers were very polite and respectful. That made our long journeys really enjoyable as if we are taking a trip with family or friends. All the hotels and facilities provided were really good and we did not have any bad experience at all during our 14-day trip. We met Sunny personally and created a good lasting friendship as well. Overall, we had an excellent tour in Vietnam and hope to come back and join Auasia Travel for another trip to explore more of Vietnam. Cheers to Sunny for being such an excellent coordinator.Less
