Every airport connection, hotel booking, tour booking and airline/bus booking worked out perfectly. Tammy gave us information about restaurants as well as hints and tips to make sure we enjoyed ourselves and kept safe. Every now and again we bumped into other holiday makers who also had Miss Tammy at Halong tours and they were all very happy with their tours. This was the first time we have done "a tour when you are not having a tour" ie you are on your own tour completely customised for you as we had some special requests which Tammy worked in for us. I just wish every country had a Halong tours and we will definitely come back to Vietnam and do another Halong tour. Thank you Miss Tammy and Halong tours!Less

We were assisted by James Vu, Sales Executive of Vina Cruises Co., Ltd and Halong Tours Booking. We have never been to Vietnam, and James assisted us with all the hotel bookings, tours etc to Hanoi, Sapa and Halong Bay. Very efficient, prompt communication and excellent choices on hotels and local tour operators. All in all, thanks to James, we had a wonderful, well-organized tour.

From the initial time of booking Nancy was amazing, she responded to emails quickly, organised many things outside of our tour that required additional bookings, and her attention to detail was exceptional. From the time we landed in Ho Chi Minh City to the time we boarded the flight home everything was perfect. Mum celebrated her birthday cruising the picturesque Halong Bay and Nancy even organised a cake for her. It was truly a special time for both of us and we arrived home with some wonderful memories. If you are travelling to Vietnam and are looking for a stress and worry free holiday I highly recommend Halong Tours, the service and in particular Nancy were just incredibly amazing. Thank you so much Halong Tours :)Less

There is absolutely no way we would have been able to see all these places with out the tour. Halong bay, Sapa, Hanoi, Hoian just to name a few. To top things off, even know we are staying extra days we got a phone call to still get our transfer to the airport!Less

They done a fanatic job of arranging and organising our trip of a lifetime. We very much enjoyed every minute of our time in an amazing country, with its beautiful landscape and even more beautiful people. Even though we had some little bumps along the way during our trip that were out of our control, Miss Bella replied to my emails swiftly and with solutions to our problems, and for that we can't thank her and the company enough. We will definitely be recommending Halong Tours Booking to as many people as possible.Thank you once again to Halong Tours Booking and Miss Bella for their amazing service.Best regards Tiarni & Adrian.Less
