    We can highly recommend Vicky from Little Vietnam Tours. She arranged a fantastic 2 week trip to Vietnam and Cambodia with zero hitches. She was available at all times to provide assistance. She was flexible if changes had to be made. Her guides were excellent. Five star service!!!

    The team at Little Vietnam was fantastic in communicating with and providing all the instructions on Visas, transportation, hotels etc. Vicky and Van were the best! Having been our first trip to Vietnam and Cambodia (we were there 9 days), we wanted everything planned and organized. Vicky took care of it all! Our drivers were at the airport when we arrived, and there each morning when we were heading out on tour. The itinerary was full but we had enough time to explore and enjoy on our own. I would have liked a few hotel options along with that they provided. We enjoyed having both city and country experience along with Ha Long Bay boat cruise (this was the best and I would have liked two nights vs. one).
    Drivers knew their stuff and spoke English. We tipped at the end of our time with each driver and guide – they did a great job.
    We’d use Vicky and team again for future trips..for sure!
