Memorable solo trip to Vietnam.

I had a wonderful 10 days trip covering South, Central and North Vietnam. I was assigned Gina from Asia Pioneer Travel as my travel designer and she was exceptional throughout the whole planning of the trip together and during my trip where she would regularly remind me of tour/pickup times, give me insightful tips and info too.

The tours were punctual and well organized and the tour guides were knowledgeable and accommodating when I needed a photo taken considering I was a solo traveler. I had an amazing experience in beautiful Vietnam!

I highly recommend Asia Pioneer Travel and look forward to planning more trips with them

Excellent services and will visit Vietnam again in near future

We enjoyed the trip despite the typhoon. Cherry was very helpful and kept us up-to-date on typhoon situation. She provided us alternate plan when we could not go to Ha Long Bay due to the closure of the cruise. Tour guide, Eric, quick to act due to the changing weather to ensure we did the outdoor activities in Ninh Binh especially the boat ride through the caves first. He added another activity, the Train Street at Hanoi with no extra cost. He is knowledgeable and kind. Ninh Binh is very scenic and surrounded by mountains and caves. We did the cooking class and really had fun and food were delicious. Vietnamese people are friendly and kind.
I highly recommending anyone to book with Asia Pioneer. Thank you Cherry for planning our trip.
