Memorable Vietnam vacation 2025

What can u say about Vietnam and this Company. Firstly Vietnam is definitely on my top of the list nations I have visited as I have already been to more than 20 countries including 13 west European countries. The people of Vietnam are extremely friendly inspite of language barrier. Always smiling ☺️☺️

Four of us retired people, I and my wife , my sister and her husband booked our Vietnam Trip through VIETNAM STORY (INDO CHINA TRAV GROUP).
I found them online and detailed conversation with Ms Channy, we finalised the same .She sent us the detailed itinerary covering three cities, namely Hanoi, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh.
She gave us the details of Hotels we would be staying in, and spots we would be visiting every day.
We had a wonderful time in Vietnam.Our local contact person Mr Tony, was completely helpful. The visit went as per the plan given The Hotels booked were 4 Stars and all guides were very helpful and fluent in English.
The local transport arranged for us was very punctual and spic and span
We found Vietnam is to be a wonderful place with amazing scenic beauty.
We would highly recommend THIS GROUP for making our trip absolutely memorable and no hassle at any point of time

When I first contacted them through google I was little skeptic . Because so many frauds are happpening nowadays . But after talking to Channy I got the confidence. She was extremely prompt and professional. She also guided me to design the best possible itinerary for a seven days trip covering all three main cities Hanoi, Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City.
For me, Da Nang was the best. Anyone visiting Vietnam must visit Da Nang . In terms of natural beauty I will give Vietnam 3.5 out of 5 .
But in-terms of behaviour, warmth, food , spa facility and cost of living I would rate Vietnam 4.8 out of 5.
And as a tour operator I would rank Indo China company 5 on 5 .
Channy and Tony are two gems of this company who were in touch through out the journey over WhatsApp and resolved any issue/ problem within few minutes. We were touched by their thoughtful welcome gift, special lunch on day one and their warm company.
Another important highlight was our smart tour guides who were very smart, sensible and kind. We were immensely charmed by Heidi who was so kind and witty and made the one day Delta tour very special because of her wonderful company.
In a nutshell, it was a fabulous experience.

Without a doubt, one of the best vacations I have had in a good while. Quinn is an absolute star who was always a text message away from assistance and support. Everyday she made sure what had everything prepared for the day.
I strongly recommend everybody to reach out to them to ensure you have a memorable and a convenient trip.

Strongly recommend connecting with Quinn! One of the best trips we’ve had.

Great experience from start to finish. Mya was very responsive and efficient as well as knowledgeable. Weather caused a change in plans but right away they came up with an alternate plan and off we went for a great day on our private tour of Ninh Binh. Thuy was a great guide and made sure we had a wonderful experience. A very nice lunch was included and they were careful to accommodate our food allergies. Overall a 10 out of 10 experience!
