Personalized, exceptional tour of Vietnam and Thailand.

I had an amazing time in Vietnam and Thailand in Nov 2022. The trip was originally scheduled for March of 2020 and had to be canceled only a week before I was to leave because of the pandemic. My agent, Lam, kept in contact with me and once it was safe to travel again, worked with me to reschedule. He listened to my overall vision and planned my trip accordingly. I went solo and most of my tours were private and my guides made me feel as though I was traveling around with a friend. I saw, particularly in Vietnam, a perspective that I wouldn’t have on a tour bus or in a large group – I felt like I was immersed in the people and culture in a way that one normally couldn’t be in only two weeks. That is not to say group tours are bad – I was on several which were excellent and the guides all knew my name! My guides were all friendly, knowledgeable and really seemed to care that I had everything I needed from making sure I got home safe when I was exploring on my own to making sure I remembered sunscreen, and they were constantly feeding me way too much delicious food. All the accommodations were also excellent – serene, comfortable, and in great locations. Every one of my rooms had an amazing view to wake up to. Each and every single experience on the trip was memorable! This trip exceeded all of my expectations.

Outstanding!

Asia Pioneer was highly recommended to us by a very well-traveled US politician. We needed a custom itinerary for 30 faculty and students, and I was impressed and delighted by the service, flexibility and knowledge of Asia Pioneer! They accommodated all of our special needs and changes, and they made every step of the trip better: from planning, obtaining VISA’s, booking inner-Vietnam flights, busses, recommended tours and day-to-day execution, their service was outstanding! The hotels they suggested were absolutely perfect and enjoyed by all. My clients were thrilled with the trip! Kudos and thanks to Lam and Quyen for running an outstanding organization, and I look forward to working together again.

Indochina Pioneer… excellent tour operator, fantastic destination!

Just returned from our first post pandemic small group tour to Vietnam & Cambodia… still top of my list of favourite destinations and a must do for everyone. I’ve taken groups there many times before but what made this experience so much special was Indochina Pioneer… super kind and friendly Lam Duong expertly and efficiently curated a fantastic tour for our group, with great accommodation, smooth logistics, sumptuous culinary experiences and good guides. Lam’s work ethics, integrity and attention to detail ensured a relaxed and enjoyable holiday for all tour members. My expectations based on my many previous visits were pleasantly exceeded by far. With Indochina Pioneer and Lam Duong you are guaranteed a great journey to anywhere in South East Asia!

Vietnam – what a Country!

Just finished a truly amazing trip to Vietnam and the whole schedule was arranged by Lam of Indochina Pioneer. Absolutely brilliant from day one until we left, 14 days later.
Met at Hanoi and transferred to a sea plane flight to Halong Bay, a World Heritage site and just incredible. One night on a lovely Paradise Cruises boat, then by road to Hanoi and two nights at the Sofitel Metropole. Did a Jeep tour and a bike tour there, both great.
Then flew to Danang and transferred to the Four Seasons in Hoi An, absolutely luxury. Hoi An is a lovely town, busy, great market, great for having clothes made.
Then by road to Hue and a visit to the famous Citadel.
Then flew to HCM and transferred to the Park Hyatt for three nights, started with a Vespa foodie tour (amazing), visited the Chu Chi tunnels including there and back by speedboat from the City and finished off with a night on Mango Cruises junk on the Mekong Delta.
All arranged by Lam, transfers were good, guides were excellent and would highly recommend the whole experience.

Incredible Vietnam

Just finished a trip to Vietnam delayed by COVID for 2 1/2 years. Lam was amazing, looked after our money and rearranged the trip several times until we finally travelled in Oct 22. Once there he was in constant touch with us and our guides, dealing efficiently with any hitches such as the last minute cancellation of our junk in Halong Bay as it was damaged in a storm and sorting an excellent replacement. Absolutely brilliant from day one until we left, 14 days later. We visited Hanoi, Halong bay, Hoi An, HMC and Mekong Delta, great hotels, tours and guides- it all went without a hitch.

We would highly recommend Asia Pioneer and Lam if you are thinking of a visit to SE Asia.

Amazing 30 Day Journey with Asia Pioneer

If you are looking for a private tour of SE Asia, look no further than Asia Pioneer. I recently returned from a 30-day private tour of Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand all arranged by Asia Pioneer and could not have been happier with everything they arranged for me. They are top-notch from working directly with you on planning your trip, arranging visas, having individuals at the airports to meet and walk you through everything when entering the countries, having amazing tour guides and drivers as well as organizing everything for you on the ground and being there to help you all along the way if you have any questions or problems. My tour was amazing with not only the normal tourist sights, but many off the beaten track sights and with your own guides, you learn so much more from these individuals who actually live in the places you will visit. I can’t recommend this tour agency enough. If you are looking to travel to any of the locations Asia Pioneer has tours, you must book through them, you will not be disappointed.
