A trip of a life time - Beautiful country - I started contact the company 8 months before the trip. My agent was Nhi Dang, sale11. I was reluctant and worried of scam by booking online. However, after reading all the reviews and even the manager wrote to me, I felt at ease to proceed the booking. I expressed our preferences and Nhi and the team delivered. Our trip was for 14 days. We arrived to saigon and departed from Hanoi. We communicated via emails and Như always had the quick response. We had a smooth operation transverse from the south to the north Vietnam. It was beautiful. They were professional, punctual and polite. We would like to extend our gratitude to Hiệu our driver and Hoàng our tour guide. They worked really hard and always cheerful. This was my very first time coming back to Vietnam after 38 years living abroad. Asia Travel and Leisure, especially Nhi and her team who organised everything and turned our holiday into a trip of a lifetime. My daughter and my husband fell in love with the country. My daughter kept saying “ I miss Vietnam, will come back again!” Thank you for making our trip memorable and enjoyable. We definitely could not do all that on our own. Nhi even came to greet us in Saigon and gave us a welcoming gift. It was such a nice gesture. We will book with this company again and will prefer them to our friends and family. Tips: We opt to pay online via credit card and it was safe. I searched up the hotels that they booked for us and requested to change some of them to hotels that we prefer. We found Vietnam airline was unorganized so make sure you pay to reserve your seats ahead of time.

Ninh Binh/Tam Coc/Lotus Farm/500 steps to the mountain - the trip to Ninh Binh/Tam Coc was amazing. My family was constantly praising the driver Mr. Hieu- they thought he is the best driver, and Son (Sunny) our awesome tour guide made the trip so pleasant. it was a 100F boiling temperature, but Son's enthusiastic has lifted up the spirit of everyone to endure the heat to do the boat tour, my family also did the 500 steps to the mountain, and the lotus farm was so beautiful. It was a great tour

Thanks for Thao Dawn ( the tour planner) who was great immediate responsive, following up on my mood on daily basis 😀, extremely committed and dedicated, never miss a time. I loved Vietnam and planning yo go again coming year. Thaw planned for 5* stars trop with private car and driver and tour guide for my best convenient and safety. I very been to Hanoi, Sapa, halong bay, and saigon. Unforgettable trip. My advice is first: let Thao handle for you an amazing memories, second: EAT AS YOU GO. Vietnamese food is known to be one of the best in its region. Thanks a million Thao

Stunning views from the Lying Dragon - Usually I would not go in for a guided tour like this. But man, I am glad I made an exception. Honestly, Asia Travel (Vietnam Travel), really knows how to take care of their clients. The guides and the driver that were assigned to us were fantastic. On this particular trip we were accompanied and totally entertained by Peter Parker. We learned way more than we thought we would. Highly recommend this tour and this company. -Gary Lewis

Our pleasant and Enjoyable Experience in Vietnam, - As we are family of 3-people, my wife, my son and myself and as this is our first time coming to Vietnam, Mr. Alex Giang of Asia Travel & Leisure had worked out and proposed an itinerary for us to experience and enjoy our first-time travel in Vietnam. By the way, we've ound Mr. Alex via searched on-line. Mr. Alex had recommended a private tour package for us, "The Ninh Binh Tour plus 1-night accommodations at as our hotel was in Hanoi. To make the story short, we accepted thehis proposal and confirmed the Tour booking with him. Mr. Alex was very helpful and had assisted us all the way from the start until we've arrived in Vietnam. He was always in-touched with us all the time and that made us comfortable and worries free. It was an exciting travel for us from Hanoi to Ninh Binh as it will takes 2-hrs to reached there. On the way to Ninh Binh, we saw some interesting views such as so many motorbikes traveling around the busy Honoi City, people eating at sidewalks & beautiful mountain and hills as our transport drives us along the way to Ninh Binh. Overall, we enjoyed our 2 days-1 Night Tour in Ninh Binh, especially the exhausting and thrilling climed on a 500 steps stairs all the way up to the top of the hill, the exiciting journey of boat ride into a 1000M long cave, the long walk hours around the Pagoda, and peaceful 1-Night stay at the Tam Coc Rice Field Resort and so more. Our personal Tour guide, Mr. Andy was cheerful from the first time we've met him. He was very attentive to our needs. He ensure that we are safe and comfortable along the journey of this Tour and he was knowlegdgeable of his scope of work. Overall, we were comfortable with him as we find him as a Honest person. We will definite come back to Vietnam. Thank you Asia Travel and Leisure.
