We're back in Beijing with wonderful pictures and memories of Vietnam.I want to thank you for the great job that you did in organizing our trip for us. The guides, the hotels, the breakfasts and service in general were excellent.I have already recommended you and your company to American friends who will be traveling to Vietnam very soon. I want to mention a couple of things that might help future visitors:
The Homestay in the Mekong Delta had two types of accommodations: 1) living with the family in their house and 2) bungalows with private shower; this was much more suitable for western tourists. All the hotels had wonderful western breakfast; the breakfast at the Glory Hote(supposed to be 4 star) had a very limited breakfast.
Poom Coom is a much more suitable Homestay for older, western tourists. It's authentic but not too primitive.
I hope that these comments help in your future plans for western tourists.
Special thanks to the Thang Long Opera Hotel; I left my camera battery there and they sent it to Ho Chi Ming City for me. Excellent service!
Regards,
Joel Tal with his group from USA & Beijing
