Carl Nguyen did an outstanding job planning and executing our Vietnam trip. Every detail was thoughtfully curated—from seamless transfers and well-chosen stays to a perfectly balanced itinerary that allowed us to experience Vietnam’s culture, food, and landscapes without feeling rushed. What truly stood out was Carl’s responsiveness and on-ground support. He was always available, proactive, and flexible, making adjustments whenever needed and ensuring everything ran smoothly. His local knowledge added immense value, helping us experience Vietnam beyond just the typical tourist spots. Thanks to Carl, our trip was stress-free, well-organized, and truly memorable. I would highly recommend him to anyone planning a Vietnam trip and would gladly work with him again.

We just got back from an 8 day trip to Vietnam with two families, and I really have to thank GADT Travel for making it such a smooth and enjoyable experience. Our coordinator, Stella, was amazing right from the planning stage. She went through every detail with us before finalizing the itinerary and made sure it suited everyone in the group. What stood out the most was how easy it was to reach her. Anytime we had a question before or during the trip she responded quickly and always had the information ready. For the actual trip, she arranged everything exactly the way we wanted: visa support, transport, drivers, guides, and even food preferences. Nothing was ever delayed or unclear. All the details were shared upfront, which made a big difference for us. The local guides arranged by GADT were also really friendly and helpful. They made it easy for us to cover all the places we wanted without feeling rushed. Overall, the whole trip felt completely hassle free because of how well everything was planned. I would definitely recommend GADT Travel and especially Stella to anyone planning a trip to Vietnam. They made our holiday so much easier and a lot more memorable.
Thank you so much for sharing your family’s 8‑day adventure 🌟.

The best trip of my life and a ton thanks to clover my beautiful, smart and hard working lady who organized a perfect trip. We visited ho chi minh, da nang and hanoi for a 7 days trip with 14 family members including 2 kids which was beyond comfort and happiness and enjoyable trip. Clover had organized every day sight seeing on time pick up, on time lunch/dinner and on time drop back to hotel.. words aren't enough how perfectly she had planned everything.. even by rescheduling our domestic flights which got delayed by 3 hrs she made sure we did not have to wait and rescheduled our flight to different one so that we don't have to struggle with kids and senior citizens. I want everyone who are planning trip to vietnam to chose Clover only, since she had given us stay at luxurious hotels. Our breakfast/lunch at the hotels were amazing.. Definitely I'll visit vietnam once again with her help may be sometime later in coming years.. Our entire family was happy and had no worries during trip.. Love you so much Clover(quyen). You're the best.. I wish you all happiness and success in life. Thanks to GADT for making our trip success.
Wow – thank you so much for your heartfelt and glowing review! We’re absolutely overjoyed to hear that your trip to Vietnam was the best ever, and even more thrilled that Clover (Quyên) made it such a memorable and seamless experience for you and your lovely family. Organizing a 7-day journey across Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hanoi for 14 family members — including kids and senior travelers — is no small feat, and we’re so proud that Clover handled everything with such care, professionalism, and love. From on-time pickups and meals to rescheduling delayed flights without stress, she truly went above and beyond to ensure your comfort and happiness. We’re also delighted to hear that you enjoyed the luxurious hotel stays and delicious meals — your comfort is always our priority. Your kind words mean the world to Clover and the entire GADT team. Knowing that your family felt safe, happy, and completely at ease during the trip is the best reward we could ask for. We can’t wait to welcome you back to Vietnam again in the future. Clover will be ready to help you create another unforgettable journey whenever you decide to return.
GADT Travel made my Vietnam trip unforgettable! From Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh, every part of the tour was well-organized and smooth. I visited the incredible Cu Chi Tunnels and the breathtaking Halong Bay. Hoi An Ancient Town was charming, and the Marble Mountain offered stunning views. Linh Ung Pagoda was peaceful and spiritual. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and always helpful. Everything was on time, and the accommodations were comfortable. I truly felt taken care of throughout the journey. GADT Travel is the best choice for exploring Vietnam. Highly recommend them to anyone planning a Vietnam adventure!

I am not interested in history usually but when I saw some pictures about Vietnam history I was curious to know the reality and facts about the Vietnam war so I decided to go to Vietnam and took the half day tour with Gadt travels and they picked me on time from my hotel and organized the trip very well. The van was really comfortable and nice and the guide vi was superb you will really like the tours of this company totally professional and well maintained services and specially prices are very reasonable. Now I know much about Vietnam war and it was too horrible to know how they servived in the war days. Really super heroes who servived in this worst situation. If you want to learn about the Vietnam please visit cu chi tunnel and if you want a good experience with professional then choose only Gadt travels ;)
Thank you for sharing your experience! 🌟 We're so glad that your visit to the Cu Chi Tunnels with GADT Travel gave you a deeper understanding of Vietnam's history. It’s amazing how a well-organized tour and a knowledgeable guide like Vi can make history come to life! We appreciate your kind words about our service, from the comfortable transportation to the professional planning. The resilience and bravery of those who lived through the war are truly inspiring, and we’re happy you had the chance to learn more about it. We hope to welcome you on another adventure soon! 🇻🇳✨ Safe travels! 😊
Our tour guide was extremely informative and also very funny! We learnt so much about the tunnels as well as the War and we are so glad we got to experience it. Highly recommend doing this small group tour.
