We had a great time visiting Southern Vietnam (HCMC, Cu Chi tunnel, Cao Dai Temple, Pagodas, Markets, Mekong Delta/Cai be/ Cai Rang/Can Tho) for 5 days. It was our first visit to Vietnam.

We had tailor made private tour for both my husband and myself. We both absolutely loved all about Mekong Delta/Cai be, Cai rang floating markets/Can tho. Hotel room (Nam Bo Boutique Hotel in Can Tho), the scenery, the variety and quality of the food (breakfast and dinner at the hotel restaurant!!), day/night markets, the people all helped to make a wonderful experience for us. Both our tour guide (Mr. Hui) and the driver (Mr. Choi) were very professional, informative and helpful throughout the trip and we felt very lucky to have them. We were delayed arriving at the HCMC to start and delayed even more by going through the immigration process but they were still waiting outside. We walked around the night market and were absolutely amazed how fast they could set it up. We definitely recommend Asia Pioneer to our friends and family and to anyone who would like to travel to Vietnam and/or neighboring countries. Mr Lam, in the Asia Pioneer office in Hanoi, and I had many emails before we finalized our itinerary. Thank you so much!! We hope to come and visit Hanoi/Ha long bay as well as the Sapa area one day.

This year in February we booked a guided tour with Asia Pioneer again to see Laos (last year we were in Vietnam & Cambodia). As suggested by Kata (again my great contact at Asia Pioneer’s) we decided to do a 11 days “Highlights of Laos” tour. I didn’t have much time for the planning so Kata organized our program. And again we were highly satisfied by it.

We visited: Vientiane, Luang Prabang, Pakse and Xieng Khuang.

Our program was great and we saw all major sights – I only wish we’d had a little more time to explore Laos even a little longer, but 11 days was great for a beginning. All the days we had a private guide and driver so we could stop whenever we wanted and even make a few changes in the program (about when to be picked up, what to see first, …) All our tour guides did an excellent job – some even offered a little more than on our program because of their personal life (eg one showed us his temple as he had been a monch there for 9 years and he also took as to the alms giving in Luang Prabang to a place where you don’t find 1000s of tourists) so we got a great impression about what life is like in Laos (and it’s different from VIetnam and Cambodia) We also never had to wait for our tour guides usually they were even 10 minutes to early! 😉 It’s just a big difference if you try to explore a country by yourself or if you have local tour guides who can answer all the 100 questions you have!
Also all the hotels Kata chose were good just be sure to bring some mosquito spray as there are billions of mosquitos around everywhere!

I can only repeat myself again by saying that doing a tour with Inodchina Pioneer is one of the best choices you can make when visiting South East Asia!! The job everybody does there (from tour guides, drivers and of course Kata) is more than great and you can totally trust them and the companys they work with!
I can only highly recommend them and me and my family we would definitly book a tour again for the third time!
So thank you all very much for our great two vacations that will stay in our mind for a very long time!

Indo china pioneer looked after us from start to finish. They eere friendly courteous and knowledgeable.

My husband and I just came back from a trip, with four friends, to Vietnam and Laos. We didn’t want to go with a large group so we went on line in search of a company who could help us plan our trip and provide guides to take us on our journey. We happened upon Asia Pioneer and the wonderful Kata. Here is my advise: do not go to Southeast Asia without letting Kata plan your trip. Every hotel, every restaurant, every activity that Kata recommended was just perfect. She is a gem. We had many ideas and changes, even adding an additional couple at the last minute, and Kata was always responsive, helpful and a joy to work with. We had the time of our life, really best trip ever, and know that this is due in large part to Kata’s help.
From biking in Mai Chau to hiking in Luang Prabang, from sailing on Halong Bay to eating snails on the street in Hanoi, Kata and our two wonderful guides Tan and Jack insured that this was a trip we would never forget. Do yourselves a favor and go to Vietnam and Laos, it is magical. But when you go, make sure that you work with Kata. You will thank me for the recommendation.

Ho avuto a dicembre scorso l’opportunità di viaggiare di nuovo con Asia Pioneer: servizio, attenzione e cura davvero unici. I servizi offerti sono di grande qualità e nulla è lasciato al caso. Una assistenza in ogni momento perfetta, con Asia Pioneer il cliente è sempre al centro del viaggio e tutti gli eventuali problemi sono risolti in un attimo. Assolutamente da consigliare!!

The trip that we planned in Myanmar with Asia Pioneer was excellent. My wife and I along with another couple of really good friends started planning the whole trip with one of the travel agents (Kata) and she took care of every single aspect of the trip, tailoring it to our needs and requests. They made us feel really special throughout the entire planning/booking process. Visiting Myanmar was even more exciting than we thought, as we got to know local people and we got a good glimpse of the local culture and traditions. Our trip schedule included visiting monuments, breathtaking landscapes, amazing little towns, getting to know locals (which was by far the most pleasant experience and the beautiful nature that surrounds this nation. Asia Pioneer and its tour guides had a determinant effect with their undoubtable competence, precision,kindness and efficiency in making us appreciate this country going far beyond our expectations. Congratulations to this travel agency I would certainly pick them again, for their availability, their fair prices and unique way of doing.

My wife and I can’t say enough about what an excellent job Asia Pioneer did in planning our tour of Vietnam! Ruby and her team customized a trip from North to South, perfect to our taste and style of travel.
The hotels picked for each destination we stayed in were magnificent! Clean with helpful friendly staff. Each had a full breakfast buffet to give us a great start for each day of adventure.
The guides chosen for us were enthusiastic and knowledgeable, with good command of English. The drivers we had were excellent maneouvering the hectic traffic in the big cities, taking us safely to our destinations.Everything in the Itinerary went as planned without a problem.

We would highly recommend Asia Pioneer to anyone who wants to have a great experience in Vietnam or other parts of S.E. Asia they cover trips to.
Thank you for the great memories!
