Vietnam memory

memorable. Hanoi impressed us with its rich culture, vibrant streets, delicious food, and historical charm, while Ha Long Bay was absolutely breathtaking with its stunning limestone islands, peaceful cruise experience, and scenic natural beauty. The tour guide was outstanding throughout the journey — very professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and always supportive. The way he explained the history, culture, and local attractions made the trip even more special and enjoyable. His coordination and hospitality were exceptional. The coach and driver were also excellent, ensuring a smooth, safe, and comfortable journey at all times. Both destinations were very well maintained, clean, and welcoming, with great hospitality from the local people. Overall, it was an unforgettable tour experience filled with wonderful memories.

Not really as advertised

Giving it three stars because of the sites we saw, and the drive to Halong Bay. Our guide didn’t really have a lot of information about the places we visited. He also made us look at parts of the tour ourselves. At one point he claimed he needed to take pictures of our passport to board the boat which seemed completely inaccurate. Our tour also ended 4 hours early (4pm at the hotel vs 8pm as the website claims.) Overall, better expectations can be set. There are tours that do a lot more for a lot less money.

Operator response

Dear AasthaBhargava, We highly appreciate the valuable comment that will help us improve our ability to serve you and other clients in the future. We apologize wholeheartedly as the tour guide could not bring you a great travel experience as you expected. We always put customer satisfaction as our utmost concern, so what you have experienced is inexcusable. Nevertheless, if we could get to know your issues sooner, we have taken appropriate action to resolve the problems by replacing another suitable tour guide for you. Again, please accept our apology and I hope that this hasn’t put you off a return tour with us. We promise to give you great experiences on your upcoming journey to Vietnam in the near future. Best regards, Asianway Travel Team

Well organized tours with all the friendly staffs on board..

Cruising along Halong Bay plus other activities such kayaking, Mua Cave tour and Vietnamese cooking lessons are well organized and a lot fun. All meals provided are delicious. It may be better to add more seafoods for dinner. Onboard services were excellent. We truly enjoyed the 3-days 2 nights cruises in Halong Bay!

Best Experience Ever

We just returned from a two-week trip to Vietnam through Asianway Travel. We blend our need for beach time with our desire for cultural and historical tourism. As this is a customized trip, we have our driver and guide. During our scheduled sightseeing, we never had to worry about transportation, tickets to sites or activities, lodging, or meals. Everything was handled on our behalf. Our cuisine, restaurant, and accommodations are top-notch! If I had not heard about Asianway Travel from friends, I would not have believed that such high-quality private travel could be available at such an affordable price. This trip was one of the greatest I've had in terms of what we saw, how smoothly everything went, how much we learnt, and whom we met. I will come back to Vietnam in the future
