Excellent service! - Excellent service from the guide and Jacky tour agency. Patient and explained concisely the history and food preparation. We were completely filled before the last dish. And ended with the train street. We also engaged Jacky agency for our trip and hotel and transportation in SAPA. The guide named May in sapa was caring and knowledgeable. Patient and able to cater to seniors in our family. Hanna. Jacky. Their team members check in with us daily to ensure we are safe and any concerns addressed. Jacky and Hanna are very responsive and gave very good options and suggestions Strongly recommended to engage Jacky

Absolutely recommend!! - We booked the food tour in Hanoi and our guide Vinh let us have an amazing time. He picked us up at the hotel and showed us 5 very great traditional vietnamese dishes that tasted delicious. The tour was well organizied and Vinh told us a lot of interesting facts about the city, the buildings and the history of VietNam. He adjusted the tour however we liked it and made a little walking/sightseeing break in between the food tastings as we were completely full (it just tasted too good). Vinh knows the best spots to go and is a friendly and very helpful guide, that really made us enjoy the tour a lot. We can only warmly recommend him and the food tour to anybody who likes to know more about the country and taste the traditional cuisine of VietNam. Thanks for the nice experience!

IT WAS A FANTASTIC HOLIDAY FOR MY FAMILY - Jacky has arranged a wonderful tour for my family vacations.He was very patiently answer all my questions from very begining i contacted him via Whatsapp.The hotel he arranged for us was Sapa Relax Hotel and Vacanza Premier Hotel in Hanoi was super clean and strategic location, it was very convenient for us to move around.My request to visit Fansipan on our arrival was completely fullfiled with his super organized team that at least we could manage to visit Fansipan Mountain before the cable car was closed for maintenance on next day.The Aqua Marine cruise was superb to at Halong Bay.We was surprised to receive a souvinier on our last day of tour from Jacky as memorable gift for us to bring back from Vietnam.I could highly recommend Jacky Travel to whom wish to have a memorable vacations.

AWESOME short trip to Hanoi/ Halong Bay with Jacky Vietnam Travel - We had an incredible experience with Jacky Vietnam Travel during our December trip to Hanoi and Halong Bay with my family. 🌟 A friend recommended them, and it was the best decision ever! Jacky, the travel agent boss himself, went above and beyond by personally guiding us on a fantastic food tour in the Old Quarters upon our arrival. 🥢🍜 His knowledge, passion, and attention to detail made our trip seamless and unforgettable. From the breathtaking Halong Bay cruise to exploring Hanoi’s vibrant streets, everything was perfectly organized. Highly recommend Jacky Vietnam Travel for anyone planning a trip to Vietnam! 🇻🇳✨ It was a very short trip for us, wished we had more time. We will be back !!! 👍

Kai's family Hanoi review - **Review for Jack Travel** I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Jack Travel, and I cannot recommend them enough. From the very beginning, their staff, especially Kate, provided outstanding service. Before our trip, Kate reached out to discuss the itinerary and patiently accommodated all my requests, revising the plan multiple times to ensure it met our needs perfectly. When we arrived, she personally visited us at our hotel on the first day to go over the detailed itinerary and ensure everything was clear. Kate went above and beyond throughout our trip, checking in with us every morning and evening via text to ensure our safety and to confirm that we were satisfied with the hotels and local guides. The accommodations were excellent, and the guides were incredibly friendly and professional. On the last day, the agency’s manager came to see us off, adding a thoughtful touch to the end of our journey by giving us meaningful and memorable gifts. This level of care and attention to detail truly sets Jack Travel apart. The agency is not only reliable and professional, but their pricing is also very reasonable for the level of service provided. I will definitely recommend Jack Travel to my friends and family. It is a trustworthy and exceptional travel agency that made our trip unforgettable. My whole family was thoroughly impressed and happy with the experience!

Pleasant and enjoyable stay. - Got to know about Jacky travels by google search when we planned our Vietnam trip. Hanna from Jacky travels responded promptly, from the day 1 she had been very politely answering all our queries and doubts about Vietnam, our trip and food arrangements, also accommodated any changes we made to the itenery with her valuable suggestions. Hanna, helped to arrange for a private tour for our grp of 9pax (Hanoi, sapa, ha long bay cruise and Ninh Binh). Right from airport pick up back to airport everything was arranged/planned very well including transport, accommodation and food (we did request for Halal/Indian food through out our trip which was awesom). All request or change in plan were nicely accommodated and changed accordingly. Whatever mutually agreed in itenery were fully entertained without any hiccups. They also arranged local sim cards at reasonable price, arranged a birthday party on cruise for nominal price. A special thanks to Hanna, for her patience, for almost 2 months during our planning stage until our plan was firm. She came down to hotel to meet us on our first day and last day before departure, during our 9 days stay in Vietnam she enquuired about our stay, food and travel arrangements everyday, even after we reach back home, she was enquiring about us. We would like to give a BIG HATS OFF to Hanna/Jacky travels for their tour arrangements which made our 9 days Vietnam trip very pleasant and enjoyable. We truely recommend Jacky travels for Vietnam travel needs.

Memorable Trip Organized By Jacky Travels - We had made a very last minute plan for Vietnam. We usually do our own research and book but I am glad we booked through Jacky Travels for a 4 night vacation covering Hanoi and HaLong Bay. Ms Smiley and her team were absolutely fantastic. From the choice of hotel location to the selection of tour partners.. her choices were fantastic. We were able to secure 5 star luxury cruise and 4 star hotels. Ms Smiley adds a personal touch by being genuinely involved that her guests are having a comfortable and enjoyable trip. We took her advice on places to eat, places to shop and specific advice for excellent suggestions for vegetarian cuisines. In my view, booking through a local agency turned out to be much better than booking through India based agencies. Highly recommended for folks travelling from India.
