This was an absolutely wonderful trip. I have been on many tours before, and what made this one so unique was the amount of free time and the various modes of transportation. This was the least I've ever been on a bus and the "southeast Asian limos" aka Tuk Tuks were such a fun way to experience the cities. All of the included activities were fabulous and the optional activity suggestions during our free time were just as excellent. Our trip leader, Hai, was the best tour leader I've had and he truly made this trip a one of a kind. The local guides were so knowledgeable and really helped us immerse ourselves in the local culture. 10/10 would recommend.
There wasn’t a lot of correspondence from topdeck.
Also when I booked the trip I confirmed with a staff member that there would be vegan options where ever we were taken and for every meal that was provided. Most of the restaurants didn’t have anything on the menu and on my birthday I was fed little shrimp after being told it was the vegan version of the dish.
A few things were skipped on the itinerary and the itinerary itself didn’t have a whole lot on it. Again I am comparing to an Intrepid trip I had done just before starting this trip.
Good value for money, great trip leader, great experience
Absolutely great trip tour guide was excellent, had some good recommendations as to places to see and go to. Nice that the group was small and everyone got along well.
Very easy to book, just make sure you get a guaranteed trip though.
Was so amazing but wished we weren't on the road during the day so much, we felt like some night time travel would have been more beneficial. A part from that having some down time was great and having really well informed and helpful guides made it easy.
Perfect snapshot of SE Asia.
It was great value for money
