Overall, we had a really good experience in Vietnam. My daughter absolutely loved the Vespa ride! (As did I) And the places we stopped to eat or drink were great. We enjoyed exploring the Cu Chi tunnels and area. The day on the Mekong river was also a highlight for us. My daughter and I are not huge museum people, so I probably should have opted for something else in my itinerary in the planning phase.
From a food perspective, after having been in two other countries prior to Vietnam that had little Western influence, we were happy to have a little more of that in Vietnam. but we still got to taste the local flavors of Vietnam. Our guide, Mr. Leighton, was very helpful and informative, even though he was under the weather with some congestion/cough over our two days there. He was a trooper.
Hopefully we’ll come back to Vietnam and get to experience other parts of the country and its culture!

Dear Jennifer,

Hope you have a great day.It sounds like you and your daughter had an amazing time in Vietnam. The Vespa ride and exploring the Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong river sound are also my favourite experiences. It's great that you were able to enjoy both local flavors and a bit of Western influence in the food. thank you your kindness to Mr. Leighton. Hopefully you'll have the chance to come back and explore more of Vietnam in the future.

Wish you and your family happy all the time.

Best regards from Asia,
Kelly
