Hello,
We are safely back in England now and it is freezing! Steve and I just
wanted to thank you for looking after us in Vietnam - we had an amazing
time! I'm not sure why there was a mix up with the taxi that dropped us
off at the airport on Monday morning but I hope he got paid somehow!
Thanks for everything and we will recommend you to any of our friends
who decide to travel to Vietnam!

Jimmy-
The trip was wonderful! Everything was executed very well. The
cars-the drivers- the guides all showed up
when they were suppose to. The hotels were very good--enjoyed the Oscar
for the end and the WIn Hotel
in the beginning were really great as were the ones in Danang and the
Hoi An one!! The others still had lovely accommodating staff as did all
the hotels and the locations were great!
Quy was fantastic...so lively, knowledgeable, familiar with the
surroundings, willing to go the extra mile and really listened to what I
would like to do and learn, was punctual and a person of his word.... an
all around fantastic guide! He knew when to leave you alone and when to
be there and he was always available. At the airport he was with me till
I got thru security...I highly recommend him!! (I have "lost"
(misplaced after all this traveling ) his card with email and would
appreciate you forwarding it to me as I promised him some info and would
like to thank him myself!!
Other then that all other were fine...no problems and I had a ball!!
Thanks tons and I will recommend you ALWAYS!!!

Thanks for your

Sorry it's taken us so long to write. Things are always busy
upon returning home.
The
accommodations and the van were just excellent. We were really
pleased with the professionalism of both drivers. We felt very
safe with them. The guide in the North, Tuan, was great. He
gave us a lot of information about the country and his English
was very good.
In
the South, our Guide, Chuong, was very knowledgeable. His
English was not so good and sometimes we had a hard time
understanding each other. However; he did really bring us to
many interesting places. He tried very hard to please us and
showed us much that was not on the itinerary. I think that the
guides and the drivers helped to show us a lot of Vietnam that
we would never have experienced on our own. They were very
concerned about our well-being. We even met Chuong's family and
had supper with them and that was a nice touch. We were very
pleased. They were always on time and eager to start the day.
On
the negative side, the bicycles for the guides were heavy and
they had a hard time keeping up with us sometimes as our bikes
were lighter and ride smoother and easier. Personally, I would
have liked to cycle more and be in the van less but that would
depend on your customer I guess. There happened to be a lot of
road construction so maybe we could have cycled more once the
roads are more developed.
We
very much enjoyed Vietnam. It's a beautiful country and the
people were generally warm and friendly. We loved the food!
The guides were so good at ordering us lunches that were
excellent and allowed us to taste the regional dishes. We had
lots to eat too - they made sure of that.
It
was great when we were able to cycle out in the countryside away
from a lot of the city traffic. Although, it was certainly a
thrill for us to cycle in Hanoi as we are not used to the number
of motorbikes and mopeds so it was really exciting in a crazy
sort of way.
We
enjoyed the history, visiting some of the museums and the cu chi
tunnels and the prison in Hanoi.
We
especially liked seeing people in the rural areas do some of
their daily tasks, making rice paper, weaving mats, making
pottery, harvesting rice - rice farming practices, tropical
fruit crops and just day to day life as it's so different in
Canada.
Nha
Trang (boat ride/snorkeling and cycling in the countryside), Hoi
An and Hanoi (the pottery village and the water puppets and the
shopping streets in Old Hanoi) were some of our favorite areas.
We also really enjoyed the North and see the rural areas there
and how it's so different from the south. You might want to
warn people if it's winter, as we weren't prepared for the cool
temperatures. AFter a while, we had seen plenty of temples -
and were happy to see other things.
I
hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please let us
know.
Thanks for the tour. We have no problem recommending it.

Dear Mr. Hung Nguyen!
We are back in Austria. It was really a great
journey through Vietnam. We thank you very much for
all the efforts you have made for us. It was really
all well organized. All the guides and drivers we
had were very friendly and made a lot of efforts to
make our holidays as fine as possible. So it was not
a big problem, that the English of the guides in Hue
and Hoi An was difficult to understand.
We are absolutely happy, that we have chosen
Highlights Travel for our holidays.
We can recommend to our friends to go to Vietnam and
especially to go with your agency.

Few time in Hanoi the Tour
leaders ask me about my

2. The Hotel is Hoi An was
great
3. The driver between Hoi An

4. Good tour of Hanoi...
indeed the tour guide there
was more knowledgeable that
Mr. Manh in Saigon... very

TO

My wife
and
myself
ordered
a three
weeks
tour to
Vietnam
and
Cambodia
for
April
2006
through
"Highlights
Travel
Co"
Hanoi.
We had
the
intension
to get
acquainted
with the
country,
their
people
and
ethnics,
their
history
and
culture
as far
as this
is
possible
within
such a
short
time.
For
Cambodia
only a
short
visit of
Phnom
Penh and
some
days for
Angkor
and its
main
temples
was
planned.
The
whole
tour was
excellently
organized
by
Highlights
Travel
Co. To
overcome
the
large
distances
we
mostly
used the
aircrafts.
We had
absolutely
no
problem
with
domestic
flights.
The
English
speaking
local
guides
were
friendly
and very
competent
explaining
culture
and
history
of the
country.
We
admired
the
drivers
for
their
diligence
to
overcome
the for
Europeans
as
chaotic
appearing
traffic
in the
cities.
The
hotels
all were
excellent

So, over

Subject: THANK YOU FOR TOUR
Dear Jimmy,
I just want to thank you for the great tour that you organized for us in Vietnam and Cambodia. All the hotels were excellent and so were the guides and drivers. Every time we had to be picked up to go to the airport, the drivers were always on time or early and when we arrived in a new city the guides or driver was always there to meet us.
Three exceptional guides were Tran Huu Van in Ho Chi Minh City and Trinh Thanh Vinh in Hue and Hoi An and the guide we had in Hanoi whose name I can’t remember.
These guides really knew a lot about Vietnam and their particular areas but also their English was very easy for us to understand. I think Vinh was probably the best guide we had.
The Zephyr Hotel in Hanoi (you recommended it) was very well located and I would recommend this hotel more than Sunway because of the location. The rooms were good and so were the staff and breakfasts. I would stay here again.
In Dalat I chose the Empress Hotel because of its location but next time I would stay at the Novotel because the restaurant at the Empress is small and in the morning at breakfast guests would eat outside in the courtyard. Sometimes this was very early in the morning and it woke us up.
In Siem Reap the Preah Kanh Hotel lost our booking so they put us into the Apsara Hotel which was very good.
I would be happy to recommend Vietnam Highlight Tours to any Australians who want to go to Vietnam and Cambodia. If you have emails from Australian tourists you can give them my phone number and John and I would be very happy to recommend your company. My phone number is Australia 03 5974 2671.
Once again Jimmy, thank you very much for organizing a wonderful tour for us.

Hi
Jimmy,
A
bit
late
in
writing
to
you.
Got
tied
up
with
work.
I
had
made
the
4
days
trip
to
Sapa
with
your
company
in
May
’08.
Wanted
to
tell
you
that
we
thoroughly
enjoyed
the
Sapa
tour.
Sapa
is a
place
worth
visiting
to
see
the
Minority
people,
their
customs,
way
of
life.
The
people
in
Sapa
are
so
kind
&
simple,
their
culture,
way
of
dressing
is
so
very
interesting.
Beautiful
scenic
place,
well
worth
a
visit.
The
hotel
was
not
too
good
for
3
star
standard.
The
breakfast
was
very
good.
I
must
specially
complement
you
on
the
tour
guide
&
the
driver.
They
certainly
full
praise
&
credit.
The
tour
guide
was
SUPER
FANTASTIC.
I
think
his
name
was
Hun.
So
kind,
cheerful
&
pleasant,
friendly,
so
willing
to
help
&
please,
very
good
at
his
job,
very
hard
working
&
put
in a
lot
of
effort
&
time
to
show
us
around,
knowledgeable
&
took
a
lot
of
interest.
He
was
the
best
guide
we
had
on
the
Vietnam
trip.
I
cannot
remember
his
name
too
well.
If
we
come
back
to
Vietnam,
we
surely
want
him
to
be
our
guide
again.
The
driver
too
was
very
good
&
did
a
great
job.
Even
the
guide
who
picked
us
up
from
the
hotel
&
put
us
into
the
train
to
Sapa
was
very
kind
&
good.
I
cannot
remember
all
their
names.
Vietnam
names
are
very
difficult
to
remember.
Thanks
again
for
the
entire
coordination
of
the
trip.
You
are
a
trustworthy
agent
& we
will
certainly
recommend
you
to
our

&
would
love

same
guide
&
driver
again.
