When I did my inquiry I was assigned to Anna. She did a proposal for my Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam tour. She explained that Cambodia and Laos will be a private tour. I was reluctant but she assure me that Laos and Cambodia are safe. Since then she is constantly in contact offering assistance an any concerns I have. Every morning Anna will check with reminders to eat well, what time is driver pick up. At night Anna will check if how did the tour go and reminder what are the activities for the next day. I feel safe and worry free because of Anna’s daily communication. The best part is my guide reminded the cook to have my meal temperature hot as I dislike lukewarm food. The tours went well and pack with activities. We finally met in Hanoi. This bubbly lady brought me cream for my bites, we ate and have dessert like locals and went shopping!!!. I have a wonderful time and tell you her English is impeccable. I would highly recommend this lady. The only downside , I was looking forward to have a back ride on her motorbike but she came with a small bike. Thank you Anna. It was an awesome experience working and knowing you.

A flawless experience in Thailand. From amazing hotels and smooth transport to the exhilirating and once in a lifetime experiences of Phuket and Krabi. Genuinely surreal and so easy to feel like a local in Thailand. Great support throughout from Ivy. Everything was organised perfectly every step of the way as well as making it feel it was all just for me. Couldn’t be more grateful for making my time away from London so perfectly natural and easy. Incredible agency, thank you! Will definitely be working with them next time!

We had a great time in Vietnam. The tour was organised with everything included (transport, tours, hotels, etc.) which made it a stress free experience for us. The tours and hotels were chosen well, with knowledgeable tour guides from reputable companies and hotels in central locations. Long Pham was available on WhatsApp and quickly replied and organised any changes and answered any questions that we may have had. Highly rate this trip!

Just returned from a spontaneous 10-day Highlights of Thailand trip that I booked through Viator. Every detail of this trip was meticulously arranged, making it truly unforgettable.
We had the pleasure of having Long Dao as our tour operator, who was always available via phone and WhatsApp. Long Dao checked in with us regularly and helped us book additional activities, ensuring a seamless experience throughout our journey.
The planned tours were simply wonderful. In Bangkok, we visited the temples and the floating market with our excellent guide, Ms. Wanna. She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and funny, which made the tours even more enjoyable. Ms. Wanna also took us to a fantastic restaurant, explaining each dish and providing us with an enriching culinary experience.
Our transportation was smooth, with spacious, air-conditioned, and clean vehicles driven by sensible drivers.
Initially, I had some reservations as the hotels were within a 3-star range. However, I was pleasantly surprised and quite pleased with the experience. The quality of the service and amenities exceeded my expectations, making our stay comfortable and enjoyable. I appreciate the effort that went into selecting these hotels and ensuring that our needs were met.
Starting with The Four Wings Hotel at Bangkok, which offered impeccable service and an amazing breakfast selection—absolutely 10/10. Although we encountered a minor issue at the hotel, it was promptly and efficiently managed. The room was beautiful with a stunning view. The staff was incredibly attentive and made sure that every need was met with a smile. Their dedication and professionalism truly made the experience memorable. Additionally, I was thoroughly impressed with the pool and fitness facilities.
At The White Boutique in Chiang Mai, the breakfast was quite basic, and the pool facilities were a bit of a disappointment. However, the staff were friendly, helpful, and brilliant overall. The room was spacious and clean. Long Dao and the team at the Chiang Mai hotel even arranged a lovely surprise for my sister's birthday, complete with decorations and a delicious cake with her name on it—a heartwarming gesture that we deeply appreciated.
Our final stay at Kata Palm was fantastic, despite some construction at the entrance and a very busy atmosphere. The rooms were amazing, and we were even upgraded, which was a lovely touch. The hotel had three beautiful pools and was just a short walk from Kata Beach. Each hotel was thoughtfully chosen, allowing us to explore the neighbourhoods freely with plenty of food, shopping, massages, and easy transport options.
One aspect that could be improved is the early starts for each tour, which often left us with little or no time to enjoy breakfast. It would be great if breakfast boxes could be provided for us to enjoy later.
We made some changes to the original itinerary, and Long Dao made this process smooth and easy. Our internal flights were flawlessly organized, which helped us remain stress-free throughout the trip. Thanks again to Long Dao, who assisted me when VietJet broke my suitcase.
In Chiang Mai, we visited the elephant sanctuary, which was amazing albeit simpler than expected. The team at the sanctuary was fun, and the lunch provided was plentiful and super tasty. Seeing and feeding the elephants was really special and the views were also unbelievably beautiful.
Long also helped us book a nighttime kayaking trip on the Ping River, which was an incredible experience.
We also did the cycling tour in Chiang Mai with Co-Van Kessel – another great highlight. The ride leaders, Mimi and Peter, were brilliant, and the tour allowed us to see Chiang Mai from a local's perspective. We even visited a local Burmese temple and witnessed the lifestyle of the residing monks. This was also sourced by Long at very short notice 😊
Our day out at the National Park was really fun, with the jungle trek being my favourite part. The visit to the waterfalls and the coffee plantation was enjoyable, and views were breathtaking. Although the Pagodas were pretty, they didn't feel particularly special as they are fairly new. The lunch was basic and a bit rushed, but the restaurant was run by a lovely family who were kind and accommodating and we still left satisfied and bellies full .The feedback I provided to Viator about this was well-received, and I appreciated being heard.
Thanks to Long's help and resilience, we were able to see and explore so much more than we intended. We also requested Halal food and this was catered to as best as possible.
It was the first time we used Viator for a long trip. We hope to book more trips with you in the future.
Thank you, Long, and the entire Viator team,for making our trip truly memorable
Halema and Habeba

🌏 A Truly Unforgettable Adventure in Vietnam with Realistic Asia & Long Pham!
Our recent journey through Vietnam was really enjoyable—a blend of adventure, culture and feel good moments that we’ll treasure for a lifetime. From the very beginning, the weather threw us a few curveballs with its unpredictability, but that didn’t dampen our spirits one bit. Thanks to the incredible support and planning from Realistic Asia, every day was filled with excitement and discovery.
What made this trip exceptional was our travel agent, Long Pham ( we’ve never met in person due to time conflict). Long was professional, kind, reliable and incredibly attentive. He was with us every step of the way, available 24/7 to ensure everything ran smoothly. Whether it was a last-minute change or a simple question, Long was always just a message away, ready with a solution and smile emojis from his text. His communication was flawless, and we received daily updates outlining our next day’s activities, which made us feel so well taken care of.
The itinerary crafted by Realistic Asia was perfectly balanced—immersive cultural experiences, breathtaking landscapes, and just the right amount of relaxation. Every accommodation we stayed in was comfortable, clean, and welcoming, and the tours were thoughtfully curated to showcase the best of Vietnam. From bustling cities to serene countryside, each stop was a new adventure. They were always striving to improve on already great, listening and actioning feedback.
We can’t thank Realistic Asia and Long Pham enough for making this trip so memorable. Their dedication, warmth, and professionalism turned our vacation into a lifelong treasure. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to explore Vietnam with confidence and joy. If you’re dreaming of a trip filled with wonder and seamless planning, look no further—Realistic Asia and Long Pham are the dream team!
🌟 Thank you for everything—until next time!

Organized by Evaneos. A 14-day, customized trip for three people through South Vietnam and Cambodia. Individual and seamless planning and tour guidance, especially flexibility in the on-site itinerary. Very comfortable accommodations and excellent local guides throughout.

Long and his crew were amazing. They had a fun itinerary. I recommend this . Vietnam was beautiful. Everyone we were in contact with were so very nice

A first rate agency - from the initial inquiry about the trip to my drop off at the airport on the final day, my contact, Pham, was accessible and responsive via WhatsApp. We were upgraded on both our overnight and dinner cruise (a pleasant surprise!), our guides were knowledgeable and the hotels were located in the center of the cities for easy exploring. Highly recommend

Chris really went above and beyond for us, and he’s a real credit to Realistic Asia. We’d happily recommend this company to anyone looking to travel in the region, and wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again.

The company responded to our requests for a customized tour quickly and provided excellent hotel options. All of our in country guides were amazing, interesting individuals who really knew the lay of the land. It really made our tour special.

We had an amazing trip to Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand with Realistic Asia. The whole itinerary was well planned and ran smoothly, and the hotels were excellent (with just one that didn’t quite meet the same standard as the others).
Our biggest thanks go to Chris (Thang), who was our main contact throughout the trip. He was incredibly professional, friendly and always quick to respond. When one of our internal flights was suddenly cancelled, he had us rebooked on another flight within just two hours, which saved us a lot of stress. He also checked in regularly to make sure everything was going well, and we always felt supported knowing he was just a message away.

Fantastic trip with Thang & Realistic Asia
If you’re thinking of booking a tour, honestly, just go with Realistic Asia. I spent ages researching, and when I came across the Spirits of Vietnam, Cambodia & Thailand trip, I knew it was the one for us.
From day one, Thang was amazing. We stayed in touch for months before the trip, and even with all the tweaks, upgrades, and changes we made, nothing was ever too much trouble. He always replied quickly, kept us updated, and was so patient. When we finally arrived, he even came to meet us in person, which was such a thoughtful touch and made us feel instantly welcome.
The trip itself couldn’t have been better organised. Every transfer, every internal flight, every driver, was right there waiting. Everything ran so smoothly, we never had to stress, we just relaxed and enjoyed every moment.
This was one of the best travel experiences we’ve ever had, thanks to Thang and his team. If you want a holiday where everything is taken care of, and you feel completely looked after, I can’t recommend Realistic Asia highly enough.

Recently completed the Sprit of Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand in 16days by Realistic Asia, which delivered a well-balanced sense of culture, food and history.
The itinerary was not too packed that everything felt rushed. Allowing the flexibility to add or change. Thang was able to add tours without any fuss and offered alternatives. The responsiveness was impressive, especially after being locked out of one hotel.
The hotels ranged from very good to excellent. With some nice extras such as laundry, beautiful scenery, massage, pool etc. The regional air transfers were very smooth. With Thang arranging the flights at reasonable times. The drivers were very accommodating and on time.
Some of the tours are physically demanding and may not occur in a group. The guides throughout were friendly and helpful. The tours in Cambodia and Thailand were very short and not as immersing.
This tour balances activity with comfort, offers great value, and has excellent support throughout your journey. I would definitely recommend this tour for those who want to maximize their experience!

Long did an amazing job organising our tour. Everything went smoothly from the day I booked. All of the tours he handpicked for us were incredible and professionally run, with friendly helpful staff. He was always only a message or call away through the whole process. We messaged through whatsapp, and I always got a reply within minutes.
Thanks so much Long, and realistic Asia for a beautiful holiday, and memories I will cherish forever. ❤️

The trip of a lifetime!

We booked the Treasure of Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand private tour via Anna Hoang.
It was so professionally organised from start to finish, right from booking the tour to receiving tips and reminders for our visa and arrival cards and coordinating with tour guides and drivers. Anna, we cannot thank you enough. It was a pleasure to meet you in person and everything that your arranged for us, we could not have asked for more.
Every single hotel property, tour guide, driver was outstanding. We enjoyed the stories Jimmy, our Vietnam tour guide told us and loved the cooking experience, the Ha Long Bay cruise.
And just when we thought we saw it all Cambodia and Thailand hit us with a fresh excitement and more adventures. We are also thankful to Cambodia operations manager and team. Realistic Asia team are just so graceful, warm, embracing and making sure guests are well settled and enjoying.
What can I say - Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand: the food, the sights and sounds, the culture, the language, the history, all the lovely places we saw really swept us over with warmth and a great feeling.
The people......oh wow! I felt at home. Nick and I really felt so comfortable but also just one with the people.
We strongly recommend Realistic Asia and our dear Anna Hoang, who is a brilliant Travel Consultant, to help you book your next holiday and make yoru travel dreams come true.
Thank you Anna and Realistic Asia for the wonderful trip

I feel incredibly fortunate to have been selected as the winner of the Vietnam Golden Rice Fields tour with Realistic Asia. From beginning to end, the experience was absolutely unforgettable.
The itinerary was beautifully put together — from the fascinating history of Hanoi, the tranquil rice terraces of Pu Luong, the enchanting boat ride in Tam Coc, the breathtaking Ha Long Bay cruise, to the vibrant atmosphere of Saigon. Every destination offered something special, and the organisation of high-end hotels, transfers, and guides was seamless. I hadn't even realised that the tours were going to be private!
As Muslims, we truly appreciated the care taken with our meal preferences, which made the journey all the more comfortable. The Realistic Asia team, especially Jennifer, were always available and attentive, ensuring we felt supported and well looked after throughout.
This trip was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I’m deeply grateful for such a thoughtful, well-organised, and memorable holiday. I would wholeheartedly recommend Realistic Asia to anyone wishing to explore Vietnam with complete peace of mind.

We recently returned from a 16-day belated honeymoon in Vietnam, and it was truly the trip of a lifetime. From start to finish, everything was seamlessly organized by Anna at Realistic Asia. We had a visa issue and Anna helped us through that process!
Our journey took us from the bustling streets of Hanoi, through the charm of Hoi An, and ended in the vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City. Every detail—from accommodations to excursions—was thoughtfully planned, and we were consistently impressed with the quality of service throughout.
Anna was fantastic to work with. She was attentive, responsive, and ensured that every aspect of our trip exceeded expectations. We felt completely taken care of, which allowed us to fully enjoy the experience without any stress.
This was more than just a vacation—it was a perfectly tailored adventure that gave us a true taste of Vietnam’s culture, history, and hospitality. We’ll definitely be recommending Realistic Asia to friends and family, and we look forward to planning our next trip with them.
