Testimonials

Our trip was amazing as we fell in love with Vietnam and Cambodia! The itinerary that Lam set up for the four of us was tailored to perfection, starting out in the old french quarter of Hanoi. After 4 days there it just got more fabulous as we traveled in our own lovely private van (a/c) towards Halong Bay for 2 nights and 3 days cruising on a beautiful boat viewing this incredible Unesco World Heritage site! Some of the best food was served daily very impressive. From there we traveled towards the south to Hue and Hoi An, both cities amazing! Then to Saigon. I would like to say the trip was enhanced by our personal guides, their knowledge of history, their stories and the smiles, this includes our drivers too! From there we flew to Siem Reap, Cambodia, and truly words do not convey the beauty one sees and experiences here. I will never forget this journey,
I also need to say every one of our accommodations were superb with extremely friendly and helpful staff and every bed VERY comfy, every room spacious and clean! Thank you so much Lam!

We had a 15 day, 4 country trip arranged by Asia Pioneer…everything we t perfectly. Guides, drivers, accommodations and schedule were all perfect. The IP was. Dru flexible and worked w/ is to tailor an unforgettable trip. Can hardly wait to use them again for other trips to the area!

We booked our trip through Asia Pioneer and was very pleased with the itinerary
And facilities we encountered. Riding motorcycles is the only way to see the ” real Vietnam ” in our opinion. Asia Pioneer went out of their way to see that we got to
Vista and experience both the highlights of North Vietnam and the South. Meeting the local people was surely one of our high lights of the trip. Riding motorcycle s over one
Thousand miles from Hanoi to Saigon, we got to see first hand the beauty of the country.
Food was great as we enjoyed all of the local taste along the trip.
If you want to have the experience of a life time, then I would highly recommend
Asia Pioneer and touring on motorcycles…

It was a trip of a life time and I ll never forget it…

Asia Pioneer organised a two week trip to Vietnam for us. Our tour started in Hanoi, then we visited Sapa, Halong Bay, Hue, Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City. We visited so many wonderful places but my personal favourite was Sapa – the mountain views were breath-taking.

Our consultant Lam was very responsive from our first contact, replying to our emails promptly, and he kindly met us for lunch in Hanoi to make sure we were enjoying our trip. We also called Lam during our trip as we had a minor query about one of our transfers, but Lam quickly reassured us that everything was in hand.

Everything ran very smoothly – a guide and a driver met us at every destination. The drivers were all very good – we always felt safe. The tour guides were excellent – all spoke great English and were really friendly. Most of all, they all had excellent local knowledge and they gave us a real insight into the history and culture of Vietnam.

Thanks Lam and our fantastic guides Tony, Thuy, Bao and Lan for making our trip so special and memorable.

We could not be happier with Asia Pioneer. We love to travel and I usually spend months and months planning our perfect trip on our own. However, this time a friend recommended Asia Pioneer to me. I was skeptical since most travel agencies are far more expensive than if I were to plan it myself. I priced everything out so that I wouldn’t be bamboozled. To my surprise, they fit perfectly within our budget and were incredibly affordable. Their customer service is top notch.

We are currently living in Japan and the company is based in Vietnam. The customer service is top notch. Our agent called us multiple times, emailed us almost daily, and met us for lunch in Hanoi to make sure we were enjoying our trip. There are no words to explain how awesome the experience was.

We first went to Thailand, then to Laos, then to Vietnam, then on to Cambodia. There was someone to meet us at every airport. Everyone spoke perfect English. We had daily guided tours, in English. They took us to eat every day so that we could taste the cuisine, but within a safe environment. I was very concerned with safety and sanitation since I was pregnant. There was one night we had issues with our hotel and our agent took care of it immediately. Wonderful! wonderful! wonderful! I can’t say enough good things.

Book with this company. You won’t be sorry!

Asia Pioneer – Kata Tran/agent designed the PERFECT private tour for our introductory trip to South East Asia! From our first inquiries to the day of arrival Kata responded with touring information, support for VISA applications and answers to our questions – via a Skype session, emails, or a phone call. Asia Pioneer developed the perfect itinerary for 4 adults who wanted more than a “standard tour” focusing on authentic activities: food experiences, historical sites, and active adventures. The balance of activities was perfect with a well timed “day on our own” in the middle of the 14 day tour! Our local tour guides were EXCELLENT providing us with a balance of walking, riding, and touring sites providing background information, personal insights, and a tourist’ “comfort level” that can only come from a “local” guide who is most familiar with the areas visited. The guides also considered our personal interests and professional backgrounds in “tailoring” our tour itinerary and experiences. From our airport greeting in Hanoi, Vietnam to our farewell in Siem Reap, Cambodia we were provided with EXCELLENT services: guides & drivers in an 11 passenger AC van, wonderful, comfortable and well located hotels, well chosen touring sites and experiences, delicious food experiences and much appreciated personal attention e.g., which ATM machines/reliable and safe, ideas for shopping, suggestions for “on our own” places to eat.
Highlight of of tour? We can’t pick out just one as every day was filled with incredibly memorable sights and experiences!
Asia Pioneer – Thank You for making our once in a lifetime tour/trip to the beautiful countries of Vietnam and Cambodia EXTRAORDINARY!
