Reviews on Our Service
Amazing Three Weeks in SE Asia
I am so glad I found Asia Pioneer Travel. My agent, Stella, was an absolute dream to work with. She patiently answered my many questions over many emails and was very well informed about the countries I wanted to visit, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. She created a detailed itinerary and explained the costs covered by the tour and those not covered, so I was well prepared. She was also very helpful in questions regarding visas and other documentation needed for each county. She provided tips about each countries’ customs, money, social norms, etc., and she was there if I ever needed her during the trip.
The trip itself was one of a lifetime. We spent three weeks in SE Asia seeing the most amazing sites (temples, parks, markets, palaces, etc.), having amazing boat rides, and staying in fantastic hotels. She tailored the itinerary to what I was looking for, culture, food, nature and exploration, and she kept within my budget. She arranged a private tour for us, and the tour guides and drivers she setup for us were top notch, so we did not have to worry about the language barrier, and we always felt safe. They took very good care of us. They even made sure we had cold washcloths and cold water after returning to the van from each excursion so we could stay cool and comfortable. The guides were also very flexible in switching up the itinerary if we wanted to do something else or if we wanted to do nothing at all.
I was super pleased with this company, with sweet and wonderful Stella, and with all of the tour guides and drivers. Thank you Stella for all you did. You and Asia Pioneer are the greatest!
Awesome Vietnam
The trip was super nice, Vietnam is a beautiful place, from the beaches to the country side and the mountains, the big cities, there are so much to see and enjoy. The people were very friendly and welcoming every place I went to. Asian Pionner Travel did a great job understanding what I was looking for on my travel and planning it accordingly. I look forward to go back to Asia.
Vietnam Holiday
Excellent travel arrangements, choices of hotels and tours. We travelled from the south to the north over a 10-day period. There are many things to see in Vietnam, therefore 10 days is limiting. Every part of Vietnam is a different experience, rich with history, amazing culture and delicious food.
Personally, I found the group tours to be far more palatable than the private ones. Adam, our travel coordinator was great with respect to curating the travel plan and keeping in touch throughout the trip.
A faultless excursion with Asia Pioneer Tours
We experienced Vietnam for the first time in a trip organised by Winston Dinh. With 4 diverse characters each with their own pecadillos Winston surpassed all reasonable expectations. From the 1st night at the Grand Peridot to our last night in the Majestic I could not fault any of his choices in either locations or the people who escorted us. I can only highly commend and recommend Winstons efforts on our behalf and wish hum and the team at Asia Pioneer Tours all the best. We will now return at some point in the near future.
