Exploring Four Countries in 19 Days

9-May-23

Thanks to Queen's meticulous planning, my solo journey through Nepal, Bhutan, India, and Sri Lanka was nothing short of perfect. Throughout my adventure, I was never truly alone, thanks to the wonderful guides and drivers in each country. I can't wait to embark on another adventure, and I owe a big thanks to Odynovo for making this incredible journey possible. In Bhutan, my guide and driver even took the time to stop and help me pick wild strawberries when they learned of my fondness for them.

Our guides and driver were great!

Working with Toni was an exceptional experience. From the outset, she collaborated with us to create the perfect itinerary for our family trip to Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam, which included two teenage boys. Toni maintained communication throughout our journey, keeping us informed about any changes or delays to our itinerary. At every airport, we were greeted by English-speaking native guides, each of whom shared the beauty of their respective countries with us.

SOUTH EAST ASIA TOUR WITH BRAVO

9-May-23

Our recent 3-week adventure in Southeast Asia, meticulously arranged by John from Bravo Indochina Tours, was another resounding success. This marks our third trip, all masterfully planned by John, and we have consistently been delighted with the results. John possesses the unique ability to collaborate with us to craft the precise trip we envision, then orchestrates all the intricate arrangements to ensure a seamless and enjoyable journey. His availability, both during the planning stage and throughout the trip, is nothing short of impressive�we often wonder if he ever sleeps, given his swift responses. This comprehensive trip encompassed Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and Laos, involving 8 well-appointed hotels, 6 sets of private drivers and guides, and 6 internal flights. We were pleasantly surprised by multiple free upgrades to 4 or 5-star hotels. The guides, with their profound knowledge, enriched our exploration, while the drivers skillfully transported us in clean and comfortable vehicles, ensuring our safety and comfort. Our anticipation for future travels is heightened, knowing that we can rely on John to design exceptional journeys. We are thrilled that Bravo Indochina Tours now extends its expertise to cover a broader spectrum of the world.

Excellent Vietnam Tours

21-Sep-23

5 of my family members and I arranged for a two week tour of Vietnam and Cambodia with help from Toni from Bravo Indochina Tours. He was very accommodating and offered many good suggestions and arranged everything perfectly. there were no unwanted surprises, some nice ones though. there were no hidden charges at all. everything was as planned and as explained to us. The hotels were exactly as promised, there were no substitutions there were no issues checking in to the hotels and they were all 4 star. I can't say which hotel was the best, they were all so nice. perhaps my favourites were the Saigon Morin hotel In Hue and the Essence Hoi An hotel and Spa in Hoi An. My least favorite would be the Grand Silverland Hotel and Spa in Ho Chi Minh. we were picked up at the airports without waiting or any issues or waiting at all. the vehicles that we used were clean, comfortable and just as promised. the drivers were great, some of them didn't speak English, but it wasn't really necessary that they did, the guides spoke English very well. I can't remember the name of our driver in Hue and Hoi An, but his English was great, we got to meet one of his children in Hoi An. what really made the trip was our guides, each one of them had a different quality. what they had in common was a love for their country and a willingness to make sure we had an enjoyable and safe trip. Our guides were Mr. Thanh in Hanoi, Ms. Nguyen in Hue and Hoi An, Ms. Han in Saigon, Mr. Sophea and Mr. Chong San in Siem Reap. If I had to pick the best it would be Mr. Chong San, he was fantastic. As I said earlier each had their own strength. dinners were not included in our itinerary but we were given great suggestions for dinner whenever we asked. all the restaurants we went to were clean, comfortable and unique. we had quite a variety, and I don't think any disappointed. the guides in Cambodia were quite different than the guides in Vietnam, but represented their countries very well and were reflective of the differences in the two countries. tips: I wish we had stayed another day in Hoi An and another night on the Halong Bay Cruise, if you want clothes made we had a good experience In Hoi An at Rubin's. I would recommend taking a favourite shirt with you so you can get exactly what you want. maybe a day or two more of downtime

Extraordinary adventure

13-Dec-23

This tour was exceptionally well-organized, encompassing the destinations we desired, excluding beachside locations. Our guide, Mhor, proved excellent�knowledgeable, courteous, and highly accommodating. Key landmarks in Bangkok, Ayutthaya, Kanchanaburi, Chiang Mai, and Chiang Rai were thoroughly covered, allowing ample personal time. Accommodations were consistently clean and spacious, with a special highlight being our enjoyable stay along the River Kwai. Anticipating our next trip with this company, and it's worth noting a fellow traveler, a young Kiwi, was on his fourth tour with Bravo Indochina Tours.

Magical Wedding in Incredible India

Just back from a fantastic 2 week trip with Bravo Asia Tours to China. We met wonderful guides and we didn't miss out on anything! Without them we would have been lost and really helped us out when our flight back to Ireland was cancelled. I will be recommending Bravo Asia Tours to everyone who'll listen

Perfect Itinerary for a Family

11-Jul-23

The experience exceeded our expectations. Our group was notably happy, and credit goes to our guide, Khoi. His commendable ability to bring together individuals from diverse backgrounds and nationalities played a significant role in making our journey truly special.

Oliver  

incredible our trip to Vietnam

9-May-23

The tour was absolutely fantastic, and I had an amazing time throughout. Our guide was exceptional, consistently going above and beyond to provide us with an authentic immersion into the country. From spontaneous rides in tuk-tuks to local restaurants, insightful advice on regional dishes, and a wealth of fascinating facts about Thailand, our guide ensured an enriching experience. The group size, consisting of 12 individuals, was ideal. This allowed us the flexibility to explore destinations swiftly without being bound to a large bus. It fostered spontaneity and enabled us to uncover hidden gems such as small local restaurants and unique delicacies. The intimate group setting, where everyone shared similar expectations and desires for the tour, truly enhanced the overall value of the experience.
