Customer reviews and what they say

Amy always responded quickly. She made an effort to understand our needs and desires.

Accommodation

Our accommodations hit the sweet spot. They were in a good location, luxurious enough to feel pampered, but not over the top pretentious or stuffy.

We had a fantastic time in Vietnam and Cambodia. Charlotte organised some great activities for us and really excelled when we had to change our itinerary at the last minute due to bad weather. Our knowledgeable guides (particularly in Cambodia) really made our trip special.

Charlotte was very helpful and flexible. She had to make changes to the trip at the last minute due to poor weather and she organised brilliant alternative activities.

Accommodation
★★★★

The Naman Retreat in Hoi An and the Shinta Mani Angkor did exceed expectations but the other two hotels were not as good.

Very helpful and knowledgeable at every point in the booking process and right up to the moment we left. The itinerary and hotels were perfect for us. We had a wonderful time in our two venues in Vietnam (HCMC and Hoi An) and in Hong Kong.

Charlotte Bower

Charlotte helped us with every detail, and understood the kind of holiday we wanted. We wanted to experience Vietnam, but we also wanted things to run smoothly, not to have to negotiate at every point and to be able to enjoy the best of the country on our first visit (it won't be our last visit). The choice of hotel in HCMC was great, as was the resort in Hoi An. Charlotte understood our need to stay within a budget, and was very patient as I kept going back to her to make alterations with our plans. Her recommendations were spot on. And she even helped us get some clothing forwarded to Hoi An from HCMC!

Accommodation
★★★★★

Silverland Yen very friendly and helpful staff and amazing value - great food, complimentary afternoon tea, lovely rooftop bar and pool. Very comfortable rooms and brilliantly located for lots of HCMC's sights and hotspots. The Boutique Resort in Hoi An was small enough to be charming rather than a luxurious holiday 'factory' (we saw some absolutely vast resorts being built on our way from Da Nang). Very pretty cream and red tiles buildings in beautifully landscaped gardens with gorgeous swimming pool and lovely beach cafe and pool bars. Great stretch of private beach - very clean, plenty of comfortable loungers under coconut palm umbrellas. My husband and son enjoyed the gym and I had a great massage in the spa. We spent an extra £200 between the three of us over 5 days, which included drinks, food (lunches, snacks, dinner one night when we were too lazy to go into Hoi An) massage, so good value.

Our trip went very smoothly from beginning to end. The guides and drivers were pleasant and knowledgeable about their respective areas. The use of the car and air conditioning on our city tours was a definitely needed treat! All of our hotels were very comfortable and well located. We had a fantastic time on holiday and very much enjoyed our trip.

Charlotte was always very responsive to our (many) questions and put together a fantastic trip for us. Her knowledge and experience of the country was invaluable, and enabled us to visit places we may not have felt confident either travelling to or organising on our own.
