We were on a 16 day trip through Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand organized by Realistic Asia and absolutely loved it! They organized all of the flights to Vietnam and then home from Thailand, as well as the internal flights. They also booked the hotels and the tours, although we did organize some additional tours ahead of time on our own for the leisure days. Each of the tours tended to be run by people local to the city being visited and each of the tour guides was very professional and very enjoyable. The itinerary was such that we started in Vietnam, beginning in Hanoi and then Hoi An, and Ho Chi Minh city, then to Siem Reap, Cambodia and finally ending in Phuket, Thailand. Each of the places was different and had things to admire and explore. Phuket was the beach place, although we found Hoi An had a great beach as well. We were very impressed and very happy with each and every hotel we were booked into. They were all very clean, nice and safe and had great staff. Would happily go back to stay at every one of them again. The travel agent who worked with us, David Huynh (Dat) was amazing! He was super responsive both before the trip when we had questions and during the trip when we were unsure about anything. We were on the leading edge of the Coronavirus pandemic and he actually noticed that our original flight to Vietnam was going through Seoul and we would have been forced to quarantine upon landing in Vietnam so he went ahead and changed our flights just days before we were to leave. We then got a notice that our flight home had been cancelled and that we needed to catch a flight home a day later. He went ahead and extended our hotel stay another night. We didn't even have to pay. We did not know what to expect when we booked the tour but after having gone we would enthusiastically recommend Realistic Asia and we would definitely go on another trip with them.

I have been living and working in Southern Vietnam for 10 years and I love this country very much. On our first time to visit the North, we decided to travel to Ha Giang, Ban Gioc Waterfall, and Ba Be Lake. We chose Conical Travel according to one of our friends who did the trip with them. The six-day trip amazed and impressed us with the beauty of the natural landscape in the moutainous areas. Each of the destinations we visited has its own mesmerizing features and we had chance to interact with the local people. Our kids had great lessons about how the people in these regions survive without the modernization. In short, the trip was very very very excellent. We love Vietnam so much, from the bottom of our hearts! Andrew, Lorna & kids

Excellent guide! We learned so much about life and culture from Lee. And the car was fantastic. I am only sorry that we did not have time to do a Vung Tau tour with him. I bet it's amazing, given that his family still lives there and he grew up there. Lee has a passion for guiding and speaks English really well, too. We thorouly enjoyed our full day with Lee and would highly recommend him for your next tour.

We booked and paid for a week bike tour in Vietnam with this company. We even went to Vietnam but after arrival....covid took over and Vietnam closed many of its hotels, restaurants and public areas in many cities. Airports were restricting flights and our connection city did close it doors a few days after we left. We had to leave then or be stuck there. We contacted the tour operator (we were the only three on the tour) and the only response we received was "OMG, I will have to get back to you." Since then they have not replied to any emails we have sent. They have not even responded to say they are busy as many are in this wild world we live in just now. We were a group of 3 so not a big deal to reply to our email and let us know where we stand regarding refunds. No money was spent by them other than the time to book the hotels. Many of the hotels were cancelling at that point so cancelling them might not have been necessary. Does anyone know how to contact this company?
