    Asked on May 10th, 2025

    Which hotels have king size beds and what are upgrade costs . We only need this upgrade for 1 room as our 2 daughters will have twin bed accomodation. Do you have other tours like this 7-8 days that are a premium style package. Do you also have deals / packages with airfares from Brisbane Australia to Vietnam and return back to Australia

    • Realistic AsiaOperatorWritten May 2025

      1. About the hotel: Which type of hotel do you prefer, 3-star, 4-star, or 5-star? We can arrange a twin room and a double room (sharing a bed). The bed size will also depend on each hotel. 2. About the international flights: Because airfares change every day, you will get a better rate in your country. Your trip starts in Ho Chi Minh City and ends in Hanoi. 3. This package combines different group tours at each destination. Group tour size may be 12-14 people. Do you want to upgrade to 5-star accommodation? The tours will be private tours.
