We would like to express our great satisfaction with the trip you have organized for us. It perfectly met our expectations.
We were able, during the first 2 weeks, to know and live as close as possible to the populations of the North, and share their setting and their rhythm of life.
We were lucky enough to be present in 2 markets (BAO LAC and BAC HA).
The itinerary and the “timing” well-chosen, allowed us to make the most of the landscapes crossed.
We also want to congratulate you and thank you for having reacted so quickly regarding the change of the vehicle initially proposed which was frankly unsuitable for such a long journey and for 5 people and their luggage.
In this regard, we will note that the drivers were ALL qualified (confers traffic conditions in Vietnam !!!!!) and very helpful.
We were also very satisfied with the 3 guides who accompanied us.
An only small remark about the guide Têh Anh. Although very helpful, knowledgeable and cultured, his bad French sometimes prevented us from understanding all his explanations and comments.
Overall, the accommodations and meals provided by you were of good or even very good quality, including homestays.
Special mention for the hotel Muca de HOI AN which allowed us, at the end of the stay, to recover well after so many km travelled.
Two remarks, however:
– If the welcome was particularly warm, the home of BAC HA homestay is under-equipped with sanitary facilities given its number of beds.
– The breakfast at the Hoa Cuong hotel in DONG VAN (luxurious) was inadequate and catastrophic (we were offered a bad traditional Vietnamese breakfast that was not at all in our habits).
We thank you for the quality of your welcome, and will not fail to recommend you to other travellers we may meet.
