We were highly recommended to DNQ TRAVEL by some of our friends who toured with them before. The price for the trip was quite reasonable with the category of hotel that we chose.

Fantastic Experience! I just came back from a short 8-day trip from Northern Vietnam, covering Sapa and Halong Bay. Due to my short time there i contacted DNQ Travel assist in organizing tours, transportation and accommodation in advance of my arrival. Mrs Tam Nguyen was very helpful in providing advice and options on my trip. From arrival to final departure i was met by a local guide, who ensured travel/tour/accommodation arrangements ran smoothly. In Hanoi i also Tam in person who took the time to come to meet me and show me around Hanoi while I waited for my overnight train to Sapa! During the tour, when i had a query Tam was always quick to respond. Due to my short time there, DNQs ensured my tours covered the major highlights of Sapa and Halong Bay. I found DNQs price to be very reasonable and competitive. I was very impressed with DNQ Travel and will gladly recommend them to friends or fellow travellers.Show more

Just amazing sightseeing trip to Hanoi, Halong bay, Sapa & Luang Prabang!! We're a group of 8 people (4 senior couples) returning home last week after spending 12 days in both Northern Vietnam. We were highly recommended to DNQ TRAVEL by some of our friends who toured with them before. Quickly Mr Dong handled our request by sending us a very well-customized trip combining highlights of Hanoi, Sapa, Halong and exactly this proposal covered up almost the places that we wanted to see. The price for the trip was quite reasonable with the category of hotel that we chose (we sorted out hotels on our own) and we all came to a final decision so promptly after 2-hour discussion. Our guide - Hoan picked us up at Noi bai airport is so good-looking and speaking great English. He presented himself as a very professional guide when showing us almost small details relating to our trip and all other things about the traffic, foods, security ... in Hanoi and he was also very patient & enthusiastic to guide us to visit some famous travel sites in Hanoi. Our guide in Sapa was also very friendly & well-trained when showing us an easy trekking track to village. We were also very impressed with the Maya cruise in Halong bay that Mr, Dong upgraded. Can not tell enough precious moments & sweet memories that we had but surely we'll come back those mysterious lands again.Show more
