RE: Nham - Green Trail Tours – Group05 peoples
Dear Ms. Nham,
We're back in California after a very long
flight from Ho Chi Minh City to San Francisco.
My family and I truly enjoyed our tour through
Vietnam! All of the cities we visited were
interesting and unique in its own way. We
learned a lot about the history, life, and
culture of Vietnam from the very knowledgeable
tour guides. All 3 guides were very
passionate about the cities they guided us
through, with experience ranging from 6 months
to many years of experience. For the most part,
we enjoyed the meals that were included.
In Hanoi, we were surprised that many dishes
were fried. The seafood on the junk in
Halong Bay was quite impressive and delicious.
The royal dinner in Hue was fine. Wearing
the traditional dress didn't go over very well
with everyone since it was hot and
uncomfortable. Regardless, it added to the
atmosphere of the evening and made for nice
pictures. It was a nice change of pace
going to Hue and Hoi An, away from the hustle
and bustle and traffic. We enjoyed walking
the streets in ancient Hoi An, shopping along
the way and buying the wares of the area.
The traffic in Ho Chi Minh City was
unbelievable, so many motor bikes.
Everything worked out fine, however the Duxton
Hotel in Ho Chi Minh City did not have 3 non
smoking rooms for us, just 1. The other 2
rooms were refreshed only, whidh ended up being
fine. We could not smell the smoke.
The accommodations, spa, and food made up for
the rooms. The van in Ho Chi Minh City
could have been a little more comfortable and we
could have used a rest stop on the way to the
Cao Dai Temple.
It was a pleasure to meet you after many email
messages and Skype chats. As I sit here
writing this message, I am watching the Miss
Universe show being televised from Vietnam and
my husband reviewing the pictures we took while
on travel. Thank you again for arranging
our tour and helping to make our visit to
Vietnam memorable.

Re: Halong Bay Victory Luxury Cruise
Dear Nham,
Thank you for writing. We had a wonderful trip
and my son and his wife were very happy with the
trip I organized for them. We especially liked
the Halong Bay boat cruise. The food was
wonderful and the accommodations were first
class. We all agreed we would like to come back
again someday. We didn't know much about Hanoi
before we came, but we found Hanoi to be a
beautiful city with so much to do. We visited
every museum and walked along the French and Old
Quarter.
Thank you so much for your work for helping to
arrange our trip. We will certainly recommend
Green Trail Tours to our friends.
Sincerely,
Virginia

No problem at all, everything was
great. actually our plan said that the
boat was about 5hours early, so it is not your
fault. We thought that we would go to the
hotel and then call your office and tell the
guide to meet us for supper, but it is not a
problem the way that things worked out.
The guide in Phnom Penn was excellent, and we
thought that both his knowlege and English were
fantasitc. Im sure that all of your
customers that have him will be happy.
Anyway, thankyou for all your kind words and
tour, it was very interesting. Take care
and good luck to you

Hello Lonely Planet,
Having just returned from a wonderful 12 day (
too short ) tour of beautiful VietNam, I would
like to recommend to you that you add Green
Trail Tours to your list of excellent tour
companies for Indochina. My group of 4 was more
than pleased with this Tour Company, including
the operator Mr Nguyen Van Dung and all of the
guides and drivers that were with us. The
accommodations' provided were more than we
expected and the air conditioned Mercedes vans
used for transportation were great !!
An excellent tour company with enthusiastic,
knowledgeable, fun guides...I highly recommend
Green Trail Tours.

RE: Mike webber Nov trip for 4.
been back in Singapore a week now... we have all
downloaded our photos and talked about the trip.
3 of us did the Inca Trail up to Machu Picchu in
Peru a year ago and we think this was a better
trip all considered.
The boat trip was amazing, way more than i was
expecting in terms of service. maybe a bit of
guilt leaving the wives at home. Bing was
a good guide.. tony.. the driver.. could do with
a little rev up. City tour of Hanoi was
good. saw the sights etc.. an amazing city.
the bike ride was absolutely the best. the guide
we had Vu Van Dao was simply the best. he was
full of humor and made for an excellent trip,
stopping at places to visit with locals, and
making sure beer was at the place we stayed :).
i would have absolutely no trouble recommending
your company to put together another trip in
Indochina.

My only comment is that the beach we went to was

Excellent tour guide-"Huy" - Ha Long Bay Tour
Dear Nguyen,
I am writing to advise what an excellent tour
guide we had to Halong Bay on Monday/Tuesday (his name is
Huy-not sure if I spelt this correctly? or pronounce
"Wheel") - he was very friendly and polite with lots of
knowledge and did an excellent job of making us feel very
comfortable. He also assisted us on our last day with
a recommendation to stay in a mini-hotel for a few hours as
we had to wait for 3 hours for our flight which was not
enough time to go back into Hanoi - it was a great idea as
we could relax and shower before our flight. Please
tell him we say thank you.
I am writing to recommend him as he did not
even accept our tip and so I hope he will be rewarded by
many years of employment with your company.
Our driver too was excellent - the roads are
difficult, but he was a very calm and steady driver and I
felt very safe with him.
We were very happy with our Green Trail Tours
guide and driver.
To give you some feedback on the boat (which
I know is not run by your company, but I would like to
inform you anyway) - we felt that perhaps the staff on the
boat did not put in as much effort as they should.
There was rubbish on the decks on both days - empty bottles
and cans. Also the boat was not maintained as well as
it should be - there were nails coming up out of the deck
and sharp bits of metal. The boat decks looked like it
could be made a bit more tidy and better repaired.
However the bedrooms were clean and tidy.

Emma

guide. In retrospect, we believe we probably attempted to
cover too many things. If we could do it over again, we
would probably skip DaLat and Hue and spend the time cycling
any dirt or low traffic roads in the Mekong area. This is
not a complaint but just an observation/recommendation to
