Stop looking, you can't get better than Indochina Travel Group A great travel company. We recommend Indochina Travel Group 100%. Travelled with them with my family in June all over Vietnam. We have travelled alot with different companies all over the would and this has been out top experience. Extremely professional and on top of every detail. Made our holiday hassle free. Vietnam is a very safe country so we thought of doing it all ourselves but so happy we did it with Indochina Travel Group as it made everything so easy so we could just relax and enjoy every minute, and we were able to make the most of our time in the country. They are so organized and helpful, from day one until we were back home they took great care of us. And all for a more than fair price, we got so much more than expected. The excursiones and guides were all really good.

Vietnam Holidays From the time we made our first enquiries with Kent we could not have asked for anything more. We arrived in Ho Chi Minh City and departed from Hanoi. All the tour guides that were arranged not forgetting the two internal flights were faultless. We had an amazing time celebrating a milestone birthday with excellent memories. Thanks again Kent. We wish this young man all the best.
