Just back from Vietnam and had a wonderful time. The people, food, and places we visited during our trip will provide everlasting memories. We chose the 3 star option which provided comfortable, clean and central accomodation to allow us to explore local areas. We paid for additional tours which were also great fun. Thank you to Tammy from Halongtoursbooking who was amazing in helping us with our itinerary which changed slightly from that shown based on our requirements. Communication was clear, timely and helpful from organising and throughout the tour itself. She was always contactable through WhatsApp to answer questions as well as confirmation of timings and pickups. Definitely recommend this trip!

Though we booked the tour through Groupon, the nuts and bolts were organised directly with Halong Tours, and our contact there was the fabulous, Alice Nguyen, always available via email and when in Vietnam, her phone. She even organised our visas, which we were able to print. The tours were fabulous, from the spectacular rock formations of Halong Bay, to the haunting, misty rice terraces of Sapa, and Cat Cat village. All hotels were excellent. Tours perfectly timed and everyrhing and more as per promotion! In Hanoi we stayed in the 'Old Quarter', which was a maze of colourful streets and narrow laneways and really came to life in the evenings. Oh, and don't miss 'Train St', the word renowed line that runs along a narrow lane between old houses, though now rather over-commercialised, and beware of the million cafes where they will try to keep you there, so do your homework re trian times. Overal, this tour was brilliant, all went exactly to plan and on time. And Did I say 'Ms Alice' was wonderful? Can we recommend this tour....YES!

My family and I had a great experience booking our trip with Alice at Halong tours booking. It made it so easy to have everything organised for us, and well worth the price. The tours and Halong Bay trip included in our package were all really nice. Alice helped us customise our package to suit our needs. She was also great and super responsive in assisting us with some emergency visa issues we had. Would recommend!
