Average Guest Reviews
Beautiful mix of culture and history. we tried honey, fresh fruits, and rode a boat through narrow canals. Just 4 days, but good experience. Thank you
Vietnam surprised me. The War Museum was emotional and eye-opening. I loved the city walking tour. The Cu Chi Tunnels were thrilling, and I even tried the shooting range. Very well-paced 4-day tour by xplovio
My favourite part was the Mekong Delta day, Village life, boat rides, fruit tastings, and the folk music gave such a local feel.
Our Vietnam family trip with xplovio was amazing and affordable. Hotels were clean, food was good, and everything ran on time. Great experience for families on a budget. Thanks to Karna
