Tailor-made month-long trip through Vietnam and Cambodia

It was simply one of the best trips we've ever done, and we've done plenty. We don't normally ask ana gent to do the whole trip for us. But this trip we did, and it worked

A wonderful experience from start to finish

We had never been to Cambodia and Vietnam before and Experience Travel put together a balanced itinerary for us with a great mix of hotels and experiences. All arrangements went to plan, all guides and drivers were first class and the various experiences, trips and tours arranged for us were fantastic.

We had never been to Cambodia and Vietnam before and Experience Travel put together a balanced itinerary for us with a great mix of hotels and experiences. All arrangements went to plan, all guides and drivers were first class and the various experiences, trips and tours arranged for us were fantastic. Being a private tour meant we had the freedom to be flexible and our guides were very accommodating, adjusting times and visits to suit. A marvellous holiday which was smoothly organised before and during our trip. We visited Phnom Penh and Siem Reap in Cambodia and in Vietnam, we went to Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hue, Hoi An and Ho Chi Minh City. Hotels were fabulous in all places.

Rating for tour operator:

First class organisation from start to finish. All pre holiday communications were clear, concise and informative (their mobile app Vamoos was also good) and our holiday consultant was very helpful. All arrangements on our holiday were faultless - I have no hesitation in recommending Experience Travel.

Cambodian and Vietnam - definitely a classic tour!

Classic sums it up. A well planned holiday full of great experiences done at a pace that was well judged. Flights, hotels and guides blended seamlessly to provide numerous memorable experiences. Difficult to choose highlights but Ankor Wat at dawn, overnight Halong cruise, and Ho Chi Minh city activities probably stand out. Not forgetting the 'Master Chef meets Generation Game', Red Bridge cooking school! All in all a memorable and fun holiday.

Rating for tour operator:

Experience travel group and in particular Lauren were a delight to deal with and Their attention to detail and personal interest in making this a an excellent holiday was outstanding. Their contracted guides were delightful and knowledgeable hosts who took the trouble to make minor amendments to itinerary timings to allow for special events (Tet) and to give us the best possible experience at crowded locations. Equally, the contracted drivers made us feel comfortable and safe in some, at times chaotic traffic. The company passes on to the guides the ages of the group travelling, in our case all seniors, a good move though we believe we confounded some of the guides by our agility! Finally, no holiday is complete without at least one minor hitch. In our case, I mentioned a couple of points to the company on our return: all minor, and primarily offered more by way of suggesting 'fine tuning'. The response, can only be described as 'above and beyond' what I might have expected. I have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone.

Exploring Vietnam, Siem Reap and Bangkok

Four age 60ish ladies travelled well with the guidance and care of Experience Travel's on the ground guides & drivers. The hotel accommodations were well located and appointed and the restaurant recommendations by the guides were good local places.

Rating for tour operator:

Very responsive to all pre planning aspects, going the extra mile to help plan time and distance aspects so there was sufficient time to see each place visited. While we were on the trip there was a glitch with the names on passports versus the names the airline tickets had been booked in, but the needed change was handled well.

Dear Janie,

Thank you so much for taking the time to review our holiday. We're so pleased you had great holiday. We're also delighted that you appreciated the work of our guides on the ground. We think that they really make the holiday experience and that's why we work so hard to select and train the guides we work with and encourage them to offer fantastic restaurant recommendations and so on.

Please do recommend us to others as we rely on word of mouth to grow our business.

Kind regards,

Excellent holiday with very good tour guides and standards of accomodation

The holiday was tailored well to our wishes. The flexibility this gave us greatly enhanced our experience. The holiday was relaxed and unhurried giving enough time to wind down between our sightseeing.

A truly professional approach

Experience Travel know about the countries they organise holidays for. They have good links with Tour Guides and safe chauffeurs. They are a company that can be relied upon to organise a memorable holiday. Our insight into Cambodia and Vietnam because of the tour operator has left us with a feeling of great satisfaction as far as seeing so many different aspects of the countries visited.

Excellent communication both at the booking stage and with all necessary updates as the time got nearer. They always followed up telephone calls in a polite and knowledgeable manner. A real find having just found them on the Internet.

An absolutely superb holiday which was well organised and ran like clockwork. There was the right balance between sight seeing and leisure time and all of the activities/experiences and places we visited were well chosen and matched our needs perfectly. There was also a good variety of different experiences, not simply visiting the local temple over and over again. Our guides were knowledgeable and all spoke good English. Our drivers were able to make us feel safe even when driving in very heavy traffic. We would thoroughly recommend Experience Travel as they did a great job for us.
