I would prefer South to North covering hcmc, mekong delta, hoi an, hanoi. Cave tours is something I wanna do too. So I want to know the groups I would be a part of. How would that be decided and planned. Would you be able to tell me what kind of people are in the group?

Hotel list: 1.Hanoi : Hanoi Nostalgia Hotel or Serene Boutique Hotel 2.Hoi An : Lantana Boutique Hoi An Hotel 3.Phong Nha : Chay Lap Farm Stay Hotel 4.Ho Chi Minh : Blue Diamond Luxury Hotel

Is this tour still offered? I would like to know more about the overnight on the boat and how much time is spent on the bus. My sister, who I will be traveling with is not able to do the bike trip. Will it be a problem getting a car?

Halong overnight cruise is must to and it is lifetime experience. Bike is just optional, so if your sister can not do bike trip she can stay on car. Halong is 2.5 hours from Hanoi city, the other day only within 50-70km on car per day.

Tour was not as expected, Halong bay was not at all luxurious as promised in tour guide, train trip was very bad, we had a train compartment which contained two used bunk beds, we couldn't sit. The transport to Halong bay was with 17 people instead of the maximum of twelve (we booked a private tour!). The hotels listed in the tour guide were note the same, we should go to the Skylark after the trip to Halong Bay but ended up in the same Golden Silk Boutique Hotel where the breakfast was at seven already sold out (empty trays). We paid our own taxi's to transfer from the not booked Skylark hotel to the Golden Silk Boutique Hotel (otherwise it would have taken ages to arrange transport). In alle cases we paid for our our diners, while the tour guide suggested arranged diners. All in all not the trip we expected and we are not going to book a tour with your company again.Show more

Thank you to both Angie for a wonderful trip in Vietnam. She worked hard with me to arrange our trip exactly as I wanted. She was sweet, helpful, caring, and diligent, and a pleasure to work with. When she left the company we were smoothly transferred to Mr. Billy who did a wonderful job with last minute changes as a result of the start of the Corona virus. Our trip was everything I dreamed of and Mr. Billy made sure that every day was worry free, checking in with us in the evening with updates. The price was reasonable, a bit more than I would have paid on my own, but worth it as I didn't have to worry about anything after arriving in Vietnam. We were picked up at the airport by a driver with our names and at every spot there was someone waiting to meet us. All the cars were very comfortable and drivers were courteous and friendly. I recommend using Bravo Indochina Tours for your first time in Vietnam as they work hard to make your trip fun and worry free.Show more

Andy helped me put together a 11 day tour of Vietnam for my husband and I. He was very patient, helpful and tolerated me changing things lots of times. They were very price competitive! The trip went really well, with no issues, the guides were all great as were the drivers. Constantly available by e mail even whilst travelling to ensure all going well. I was unsure about using a chinese company but would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone!Show more

We have just returned a tour of Vietnam 11 Days. In the North we had a wonderful tour guide Linh and driver Chung. In Saigon to be met by Thao and our driver Yung. They have been fantastic, their knowledge and relaxed attitude has been excellent. We have received personal service throughout the trip. We visited places which were different to the normal tourist trips which was very special. Highlights were Hanoi , Ha long Bay overnight cruise; Visit to Cu Chi tunnel, War Museum, Palace, Markets & Mekong river cruise, and to finish our trip a dinner cruise on the Saigon which was most entertaining. Many thanks Bravo Indochina Tours for organizing our tripShow more
