MEET OUR HAPPY TRAVELERS

2-Week Itinerary Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam

A wonderful, well organized holiday

I was tasked by friends to organize a holiday in the Far East. I was put in touch with Tuan at Absolute Asia Travel and from that time on had the concern and hassle taken off my shoulders. From giving him an idea of what we wanted to see and do he organized our trip to be exactly what we desired. We did make some small changes to the itinerary and these were catered for without any problem.

5 friends from Australia met my wife and I in Bangkok and we flew into Luang Prabang to start our 15 day tour of Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. The hotels booked for us throughout were of high standard with excellent, friendly service. The flights, the mini-bus trips, the boat rides, were always organized and there on time.

The guides we had were all very knowlegable, with good English and were pleasant and always ready to put themselves out to suit our wishes.
We visited Hanoi, Halong Bay (a 2 day trip), Sa Pa(a short trek through the hills), Saigon (incl. Cu Chi tunnels), Mekong Delta and Siam Reap (the Angkor complex and Tonie Sap lake).

We parted back in Bangkok with all of us raving about the holiday.

On top of it I had online support always available to help me with information and adjustments. Highly recommended!

BEST part of our Vietnam Travel Experience

From the moment I wrote an inquiry email to the person I dealt with till the last moment when we stepped off the boat, our experience with Absolute Asia Travel was excellent. The customer service was top notch, the food was perfect, the activities suited for our family of six, and the cleanliness and accommodations were comfortable. Our guide, had a wonderful sense of humor, incredible patience and a diligence that paid off when we tried to find a location that my father in law had visited back in the 1960’s. We will definitely choose Absolute Asia Travel again in the near future and you should too.
