Unforgettable ten days in Vietnam
My family took a ten day trip to Vietnam in May 2025. Asia Pioneer Travel took care of every detail. We had an incredibly enriching, fun and amazing trip. The tour guides were amazing, kind and knowledgable. We had an incredible variety of experiences – boat rides on the Mekong Delta, a night life tour by scooter, a beach resort, a bike ride, a cooking class and more. Our trip planner, Maris, was attentive and flexible. The places and tours she chose for us were perfectly aligned with what we were hoping for. It can be challenging navigating a new place in a short timeframe. Working with Asia Pioneer Travel made everything smooth and easy from the initial planning call, to arriving at the airport to heading home. It allowed us to do so much more than we ever thought possible. We stayed at three different places that Maris chose based on our preferences and each one was perfect. It saved us hours of time of scrolling through reviews and listings and just get to arrive at very nice places. Having local guides take us around and share their knowledge and insights deepened the experience. We learned so much and enjoyed every minute of our time there. I’m forever grateful and would recommend them to anyone looking to make the most out of their travel experience.
Thank you for the outstanding experience
Four of us spent 14 days in Vietnam and Cambodia. Lizzie organized our trip. Thank you for the excellent planning and the competent, friendly guides who accompanied us everywhere. We’re taking home many interesting and new impressions from Vietnam and Cambodia. The selection of all the sights and activities was perfect, and the tour guides and drivers looked after us very well.
We can wholeheartedly recommend you and the agency. If we ever travel to Asia again, we’ll be in touch. Thank you very much.
They made the best trip for us in Vietnam!
We traveled to Vietnam with Asia Pioneer Travel in March 2025. This trip has been the best in our lives thanks to their contribution! Communication was easy and timely. They took our wishes into account, selected beautiful locations and accommodations for us, and organized the entire trip so that we really didn’t have to worry about anything. 5-Stars review!!!!
Trip to Cambodia and Vietnam
Lizzie created and executed an amazing trip for my family (2 adults 2 teens) for Cambodia and Vietnam. We felt taken care of the entire trip and saw all the items on our list! The guides, drivers and hotels were phenomenal! I would highly recommend Asia Pioneer Travel to anyone looking to travel in Southeast Asia
