As an international adoptee visiting my birth country for the first time since being adopted at 1.5 years old this journey was emotionally complicated for me. Asia Pioneer staff Stella Nguyen and her tour team made that journey for me more comfortable. I truly felt welcomed back into my birth country and each of the tour guides I met with were very knowledgeable and helpful. Both Danny and Tim helped me reconnect back to my roots as each gave me indepth history and information regarding Thai culture.

Also, each of the hotels that were selected were all beautiful and unique. The hotel staff were always helpful and professional during my stay. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay at these hotels for comfort, cleanliness, and location. I really enjoyed the fact that these hotels were at the center or very close to all the local events, clubs, markets, and stores.

Additionally, this trip was a birthday gift to myself and Asia Pioneer made sure this detail was passed onto those along the tour. The tour guides blessed me with birthday greeting, small gift, and even dessert the night of my birthday. The hotel I stayed at during my birthday also welcomed me by adorning my room with birthday greeting spread on the hotel bed with flowers and towels shaped into elephants and a heart plus a dessert garnished with Happy Birthday chocolate. It all made me feel special for my birthday.

As a solo traveler booking with a tour guide company for the first time, I would highly recommend anyone to book with Asia Pioneer! From the details and communication during the planning process to the end of the trip, it was total satisfaction. I will certainly use Asia Pioneer again for my future travel plans.
