What people love about touring Vietnam solo
- Solo-ish Vietnam
The experience was amazing , the size of the group was perfect , the tours were interesting but some of them were unecessary in my opinion . I would have loved more leisure time since the tour was super intense we didn’t get to rest properly nor to have enough amount of sleep . The only reason I didn’t give a 5 stars is beacause of the two last days that to Mekong delta where there was a lot of travelling for not too much . I would have preferred to just spend a day nearby and go back to Ho Chi Minh and maybe one more day in hue or hoi an . But overall it was An amazing experience and I would travel with G adventure again no doubt about it . Thank you

Spent one week in northern Vietnam and had a wonderful time! The trip was so well organised and if I ever had questions - they were answered within minutes. The accommodations were all nice and clean. The food on the trips were of good quality. I would for sure recommend booking with this tour company!
