    Asked on January 25th, 2024

    i am looking to do 17 day trip next Feb 2025, my brother can only do 12 day trip is that something you could accommodate?

    Tour Details
    • Way To TravelOperator•Written January 2024

      We have the 17 day trip and the 13 day trip. They are ultimately the same trip, but the people doing the longer trip will continue to the South of Vietnam. This sounds like it would perfectly for you both to still be able to travel together for the first couple of weeks.

    Asked on October 30th, 2023

    Is it possible that you will pair me with another woman for the rooms or do I have to pay extra for a private room?

    Accommodation

    • Way To TravelOperator•Written October 2023

      Most of our travellers come solo and we offer twin share accommodation (2 pax per room). You don't need to pay for the private room upgrade.
