10.0 Excellent Planning ans Support for a Relazed discovery of Vietnam
The planning for the trip was rushed and last minute. But Helen Dang was available with prompt responses to my questions always. Once I reached there, she was always available to answer my questions and check in to see if there was anything she could do to help. Overall the trip was fantastic. The visit to Hanoi and Danang, the experiences she organized, the hotel and guide booking she did was all fantastic. I will be back once again for a longer and more detailed travel in this beautiful country and will be reaching out to Helen again for her help and knowledge.

10.0 Memorable holiday experiences in Vietnam
This was my second travel managed by Paradise Travel. Everything worked well. Good driver and guide. They were on time in all transfers and tours. Car was big and clean. Tours were very good, specially the one at Mekong Delta. Nice selection of restaurants. Will work with them again if I travel to another part of Vietnam/Laos/Cambodia.
