please can you confirm that the group is composed by the same members from start to end throughout the tour? no members added during the tour, no members leave during the tour. And will the guide be the same throughout the tour and with us full time even on the plane, going to the airport etc? Is the guide like a tour leader being with us full time? How many flights in total in the tour? How many are included in the price and how many to be paid at arrival?

This trip will start in Hanoi (HAN) and end in Siem Reap (SAI). Regarding the tour arrangements, this tour is based on English-speaking guides, you will join the group tours in Vietnam (group size maybe 12-16 people). The group tour is NOT that you share with the same group from the beginning till the end. Most of our tour is a partial group tour in which you will have a group tour for excursion at each place, for airport pick up and accommodation are private. The tour in Siem Reap is private. We understand that for solo travelers sometimes it is important to be with the same group for the entire trip, so we put this notice for you. If these conditions are well for you, we are excited to see you in our destinations and wish you a joyful trip. Our travel advisor will be in touch with you daily to coordinate your travel and make sure your travel experience is good. I would like to confirm that we will arrange the private airport transfer anytime according to your flight schedules. This package includes 2 internal flights: Hanoi/ Ho Chi Minh and Ho Chi Minh/ Siem Reap.
