Reviews on Our Service
Stress- free travel is the only way to maximize your enjoyment in a foreign destination
My first visit to Vietnam was exceptional due to the personal attention I received from the staff at Asia Pioneer.
From my first email inquiry to my last goodbye with my guide in Saigon has been nothing short of exemplary.
I would definitely recommend Asia Pioneer to anyone interested in a stress free adventure and let them arrange the transportation, accommodations and places to explore.
Private tours to Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.
Wonderful experience working with Chloe in Asia pioneer travel. She was very helpful especially when my husband broke his leg and delay our whole trip from November 2024 to March 2025. She helped us to claim insurance for trip cancellation.
Very good trips around Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos in 12 days, with experienced guides and drivers in each country. Hotel and cruise were very comfortable.
Guide also helped my husband in walking with his leg not fully recovered.
Thanks.
Amidst the chaos that is Vietnam, Asia Pioneer Travel were always there for us!
My wife and myself spent 10 days in Vietnam. We tried the travel agencies in Adelaide but were not satisfied with the proposed tours/schedules. So we tried Asia Pioneer Travel. Right from our 1st correspondence until our last day day in Vietnam, Asia Pioneer Travel were exceptional. From Winston in the office to Tom and Alex (our personal tour guides in Hanoi and Hoi An, as well as the drivers), their service and organisation was outstanding. Amidst the chaos that is Vietnam, we could always rely on APT being there for us. Not only was their knowledge of all things Vietnamese outstanding, their flexibility in last minute changes was impressive. Nothing was too much. We had a great time and do not hesitate to recommend Asia Pioneer Travel to others. We will use them again!
Inviting Vietnam
We have just returned from a very enjoyable, food-focused tour of Vietnam arranged by Asia Pioneer Travel, based in Hanoi. Our 15 day tour was wide-ranging and included quality hotels, excellent guides and perfect coordination of all transfers and day trips, including a 2 night cruise on Ha Long Bay. Our tour coordinator, Annie was a marvel who communicated every detail and made the whole experience trouble free. Payment was easy and secure. We paid only a little more than the group tour price for a private tour for 4 people, with our own drivers and guides throughout. The Vietnamese people are friendly, helpful and justifiably proud of their country. Vietnam is still very affordable, and our trip was good value, comprehensive, and comfortable.
