On our first trip to Vietnam, we wanted to have a nice balance of nature and city trips, learn about culture and explore the cuisine - so we worked with Ashley to build a custom-made itinerary, which turned out to be an unforgettable trip. She has been most helpful to accommodate all our needs, quickly turned around every request and also supported when we had some emergencies due to a forgotten luggage while in Vietnam, always checking in to ensure we enjoy it all. Mr Tu, our tour guide took us to wonderful places and helped us experience the life of the local people in very unique ways. It was real fun travelling with Tu, he explained all we wanted to know about history and culture, and was extremely flexible when we had special requests to explore & try things outside the itinerary - all to ensure we get the most out of our trip! Highlights of our trip: Pu Loung trekking and village tour, boat rides, Hoi An trip, cooking class with Madam Ai. We highly recommend it all!

We started with a small tour to the local market, which was really great to learn about all the ingredients. Then Madam Ei gave us an incredible class making super yummy dishes in her own kitchen - most wonderful chef and amazing person, we are very lucky to learn from her.
