    The whole team is doing a great job
    Our tour guide Haha has such a cheerful and enthusiastic personality. She always greeted us with a big smile. She explained everything so nicely, it made the whole experience very enjoyable. The lunches at the local restaurants were delicious, and the places we went to were very interesting too felt like we were experiencing the local lifestyle. The cycling part was one of my favourites, especially with all the stories she shared about Vietnamese culture and traditions. Vu, our travel consultant, was also super helpful from the beginning. The whole team is doing a great job. I would recommend this tour to anyone planning to visit Vietnam.
