Our Tour Reviews

Most people have heard something about Vietnam, whether that be about the war or the beautiful culture. However, you can't fully understand until you actually set foot in this extraordinary country. BTV with Huy & Pham was the most amazing experience. Their charisma is unending, their knowledge is unceasing and their passion is everlasting. Vietnam is a beautiful, diverse country and it was a pleasure to tour it with these awesome people! ???

How do I put this experience into words? Every element of this tour has exceeded my expectations. From the food to the accommodation (the sleeper bus not so comfortable but a pretty unique and funny experience you have to do!) The activities included are everything and more you would want with a tour. There is a perfect ratio of free time/scheduled activities. The route is spot on, I feel I have seen the contrasting areas of this beautiful country and really traveled off the beaten track as well as seeing the tourist highlights. The tour is very well organized and ran smoothly the whole time. I feel I have seen the real Vietnam which could not have been done as a solo traveler. Definitely value for money. Aside from the tour, this whole experience has been made a million times better due to the incredible tour guides Huy (Uncle Jackie) and Juan. Jackie, I can not rate you enough. You are professional, honest, knowledgeable, welcoming, caring, funny and everything else you would want in the BEST tour guide! Even on your days off you took us out which ended up being highlights of the trip. The passion you have for your job and the effort you put into this tour is inspirational. You have made this trip an unforgettable experience I will no doubt be telling my grandchildren about! I gained not only an awesome experience but also a dear friend I hope to see again in the future To anyone thinking of traveling to Vietnam, I highly recommend this trip. I encourage you to book Backpacking Through Vietnam. You will not be disappointed.

Just book it! I did the Thailand tour last year so had high expectations for Vietnam and it was incredible. Our tour guides Roy and Juan were top-class, 'knowledgeable, fun and caring'. We're now family for life.The transport, accommodation, food and activities were all of high standard and I loved the opportunities of free time in this action-packed tour of Vietnam. Looking forward to the Bali tour next. Thanks guys for a trip of a lifetime. Denis O'Malley, Ireland.
