Very good contact maintained throughout our trip. The guides had good English and were mainly organised and knowledgeable. The content of the tour was interesting and well planned. The hotels were well located for our needs and of a good standard apart from. The hotel in Viang Vieng was however infested with ants and not cleaned well.

Helpful overall. Had to be chased to secure the booking in River Resort and again the change in price after alteration of days spent on Phu Quoc. Supplied a variety of ideas and listened to what we wanted for our trip and was quick to solve problems and make amends when Lao Airlines cancelled a flight from Pakse. We appreciated that.

We had a great time. Everything ran like clockwork, and when it didn't, a member or your team (either in the UK or Vietnam) was available and fixed things quickly and easily. Which is why we used you.

Enfys was very friendly, very helpful, and very knowledgable. She made the process of deciding where we were going, when and how very simple and clear.

Accommodation
★★★★

We really liked the accommodation chosen in most locations. The accommodation on the Bassac and Bhaya cruises exceeded our expectations. Both were very comfortable and refined. We didn't like the Majestic Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City. The rooms - and particularly the bathrooms - felt tired. The first room we were checked into had a bad damp smell and was right beside the dining room where there was a karaoke party going on until late. We moved to another room which smelt better but still felt a bit old and tired. The pool was disappointing because it was so enclosed. The spa felt tired and not particularly luxurious.

We felt very confident that we were being looked after all the way from the initial consultation through to traveling. Any questions were answered promptly and efficiently and the local knowledge and personal recommendations were much appreciated. InsideVietnam really went the extra mile to make our honeymoon special including a few surprise extras! Would not hesitate to recommend InsideVietnam.

Fantastic service from Enfys and Tom. They created a superb itinerary and an interesting mix of accommodation and experiences. They spent a lot of time finding out our interests and how we like to travel. The balance of guiding and free time was well judged. We wouldn't normally use local guiding but it really enhanced our understanding of the people and culture as well as being an opportunity to ask lots of questions.

We had a wonderful holiday which very successfully combined the chance to spend time with our son who lives in Vietnam as well as having some time to travel on our own. The accomodation throughout was excellent (with one exception) the guides were helpful, reliable and knowledgeable and all transfers, check-ins etc went incredibly smoothly. Laos was a definite highlight - we loved Luang Prabang and the Maison Souvannaphoum and the excursions that had been organised - elephant ride and waterfalls and river trip from Nong Khiaw to Luang Prabang - were all fab.

Enfys Huws

Enfys was extremely reliable, helpful, and particularly calm and resourceful when our plans had to be amended unexpectedly at quite late notice. She listened carefully to our holiday requirements and produced exactly the kind of package we wanted. She kept us informed throughout the booking and administrative processes and was even in touch when we were in Vietnam.

Accommodation
★★★★★

The hotels were excellent, the exception being Pha Xang at Nong Khiaw where the setting was stunning, but the soundproofing of the bungalows left a bit to be desired! Staff were delightful, rooms were well proportioned and nicely furnished and beds were all very comfortable. We loved the presentation and variety of the hotel breakfasts (although the breakfast experience at the Medallion Hanoi and Pha Xang in Non Khiaw was of a lower standard than the other hotels)
