Good memories
We planned to visit Vietnam as a group of friends and was referred to Adam by a couple that returned and used Adam to arrange their holiday. We gave him the brief and requested him to organise this with some recommendations from him. Adam is punctual in his response , flexible to make your trip memorable with his experience. Thank you for arranging an unforgettable trip.
Amazing trip to Vietnam
Our trip to Vietnam with Asia Pioneer was amazing. Trp was very well organized and planned. Thanks to Adam who was available throughout the trip with his help and suggestions. Definitely will recommend Asia Pioneer to friends and family.
This was our best arranged, planned, and executed travel trip ever. We would make use of their services again in future.
We contacted Asia Pioneer Travel earlier this year to arrange a tour for us through Vietnam. We specified places that we would like to see, and the type of accommodation that we would like to stay in. We had personal dealings with Adam, and throughout the process he was always available to answer our questions on what’s app, although we have a time difference of 5 hours. He promptly sent us an itinerary as well as a quote. We had a few changes that we wanted, and they were made without any delay. Adam arranged for our E visas to visit Vietnam as well as every aspect of our vacation.
We visited Vietnam for 16 days, and every excursion was delivered as promised, drivers were always on time and the day before made contact to conform the arrangements for the next day.
We were so impressed by the efficiency, professionalism and friendliness of this travel agency and I can with an open mind and honesty recommend this company for all your travel arrangements to Asia, and more specifically Vietnam. No extra money was ever charged over and above the original quote, and what was included and not was clearly spelled out.
5 Star service from Asia Pioneer Travel.
Unforgettable lifetime memories.
This trip is once in a lifetime time experience that I advise anybody who has enough budget to experience. Vietnam is one of most beautiful countries a person can visit. It’s so diverse, a traveler can enjoy nature at its finest and meet one of the most friendly people.
