We cannot say enough good things about a Taste of Hanoi and Brian! We were on a cruise for our 25th wedding anniversary and chose to use them to arrange private tours for 2 stops in Thailand, 1 in Cambodia and 4 in Vietnam. Prior to our departure, Brian worked with us to create an itinerary to meet our needs and was very responsive to communication (even being able to pull together a great itinerary following a last minute port change). Every single tour guide and driver in each port was excellent. Super knowledgeable, kind, accommodating and truly ensured we got the most out of the experiences. Brian also arranged lunch in all ports at a variety of restaurants ranging from good to outstanding. As well, in Saigon & Hanoi, Brian booked beautiful hotels for us to stay in to help cut down on the long travel between the ports & cities to maximize our time there. We were extremely happy with the service provided before and during our cruise / land tours. We really felt that Brian and subsequently our tour guides ensured that we were safe, well cared for, and that we had the most amazing time and adventures in each port! I would not hesitate to use Taste of Hanoi to plan another holiday in southeast Asia for us! Five starts for sure!
