Dear active travel Vietnam

We both arrived home safely. England is dull and cold compared to Vietnam and we would like to thank all of you for making this trip so special. All our guides including Ken, Son and Quyen along with the porters and drivers were excellent.

We will be recommending you to our friends in England and hope to return to Vietnam in the future as it was a brilliant country.

Very best regards,
James Maher

Red Spider Group | Ho Chi Minh Trail | Vietnam

Itinerary: Motorbike Ho Chi Minh Trail, Vietnam
Date: January 16 - January 30, 2010
Nationality: American & United Kingdom

The 4 USA and one British biker want to say what a great trip we had with Active Asia on our 1,857KM motorbike ride from Hanoi to Nha Trang. The trip was excellent, we saw unique things, met friendly people and it was the best experience anyone had ever had. What a great way to see the country of Vietnam and learn its history.

We want to especially thank the travel coordinator Sunny who helped us make the whole arrangements, and especially thank Kenny, Luc and Quyen our guide, drive and mechanic for the trip. We became great friends during our travels for 10 days and really enjoyed their company.

As far as the trip itself we had great bikes and problem free. They were the Honda 250's and ran great. The overnight stays were all fine, we lived rural and it was great fun roughing it. Only one hotel probably needs to be dropped from the list and that was the one in Tan Ky. But other than that all was fine on the accommodation and food side.

Feel free to check out our web site which we created for the trip which has many pix and videos. It is peterb.yolasite.com

Thanks to Active Asia for a great trip!

Itinerary: Bird watching & trekking Fansipan Mount

Hi Sunny,

Yes, we are all well thanks and only a little aching! We just arrived back from Hanoi a couple of hours ago.

The tour was a great success thanks Sunny. Everything went very smoothly and all the services you provided were excellent. Khanh, Chi and all the porters were extremely helpful and did a great job. The food was also excellent and lots of it too.

Thanks especially to you Sunny for organising everything so professionally.

I will put the Fansipan birding tour on my website though it would be too difficult for many of my clients who are usually quite elderly. I plan another small group to do it again either at the end of this year or next spring so I will be in touch then.

Thanks again for everything Sunny and look forward to working with you again soon.

All the best,

Richard
