Hello,

We went back to Paris delighted with the stay in Vietnam with lots of memories.
Kindness of the people in Sapa was very pleasant for landscapes and villages and markets, animation of the old city streets of Hanoi, and cruise jonque Swan was very pleasant with guide Mee and comfort and super food, home super home Homestay in Thac Ba , very exotic walk in boat berry of terrestrial length.
I chose Authentik Vietnam by reading travel forums on the internet (the backpacker, and travel forum); the choice was based on your speed of response + nice suggested route + correct price compared to 6 other agencies.

We thank you for organizing our trip which went very well and also for your welcome in your office.
Good luck in your activities

Hello, 

Indeed we were delighted with our stay in Vietnam. Your program has seduced us and we really enjoyed being in the authenticity.
The services were perfect (visits, car with driver, hotels and restaurants, boat). I would also like to point out that we were very pleased with the guide who speaks French perfectly gave us so much detail about our visits and the country in general. The schedule was well distributed and we can not wait to come back to Asia! We knew Authentik Vietnam on the internet and we really did not regret choosing you to arrange our stay. 

Best regard

Hello, 

Overall, we are very happy with the trip with AUTHENTIK VIETNAM to Vietnam and Cambodia. The journey, the stages, the visits, the drivers, the guides, the vehicles, the hotels and the meals corresponded exactly to our expectations. In addition, you managed very well, despite the late hour, the plane problem we had with Vietnam Airlines from Hanoi. Hence the advantage of actually having the opportunity to contact a manager at any time, especially when we do not master English well as in our case.

There is one of the guides who had a lot of difficulty with French and that was sometimes difficult to understand, but I would not tell you which, so as not to harm him because he was very friendly. In fact, the choice of Authentik Vietnam was made simply because one of our acquaintances who had used your services twice, had been delighted and therefore advised us your agency; and also because the proposed program and price matched our expectations.
We will not fail to talk about you if someone asks us for an agency to travel to your country. 

Cordially,

Didier

We have just returned from this great 17 day-trip, organized by Mr TU, the director of AUTENTIKVIETNAM. We were 2 couples and benefited during the stay from Ford Transit and Mercedes Sprinter vehicles of very good quality. We received the VIP services. Our guides with extensive knowledge of Vietnamese culture were very punctual and easily adapted to the wishes of holidaymakers.

I discovered Authentik Vietnam on websites and realized that someone who lives near my home had made a trip with them. After making contact with the author of the comments, it was clear that the seriousness of this company was well established.
With this agency you organize your trip well, you adapt your visits and your rest at your convenience in agreement with Mr TU.

In the organization, everything was well orchestrated: hotel bookings, flights, the beautiful junk of HALONG Bay, various visits and nights homestay.
In conclusion, everything in the organization is unsurprising and in my opinion more pointed in detail than the travel agencies of our countries. If you are thinking of discovering Vietnam, AUTHENTIKVIETNAM is the agency for you.

We stayed at the Villa Saigon in Ho Chi Minh outside the quiet pool, the most efficient SPA we have done during this trip, gourmet restaurant, then a night on the bassac boat to do the Mekong, very well. Then on Hue pilgrimage village where we were upgraded to a beautiful bungalow with outdoor shower, pool, spa, good restaurant.

In Hoian, Essence Hoian Hotel and SPA (we had not recommended tested in town a SPA on the advice of the guide) Hotel a little away from the bustling city, very lively at night, pool, do not eat at restaurant but in town, good breakfasts.

Then in Hanoi Elegance Diamond Hotel & SPA, great restaurant on the top floor with views of the city, book in advance very popular even by locals, only flat no balcony, window, difficult to access behind a sofa glued to the wall and noisy city center, otherwise very spacious room. And finally a beautiful night in the Ha Long bay on the Junk Dragon Legend, superb cabin, staff to the small care. That's hoping to have been able to help you.

Many thanks to Authentik Vietnam!

Hello Mrs. Nguyen and the whole AUTENTIK team,

We loved this trip that allowed us to know your beautiful country. Everyone will bring their testimony. First, Hanoi and the center was a real discovery, even in the rain from Hanoi to Sapa with the ethnic villages, the camcau market, Ta Van, although the rice fields are not planted. All this was great and will leave us with memories for a long time. Hue and Hoi an were more centered on culture, temples, pagodas, urban life. With too many tourists in Hoi an, despite the beauty of this city, did not make us regret the departure. The hotels were well placed, the guides all very good, the drivers too. The train and Trung trips are original and interesting.

The HALONG Bay cruise is a must, but it is international tourism. In the timing, perhaps it was necessary to put a day of rest in the 1st week to cut the intensive and rich rhythm that you proposed to us. But this is a detail that will not make us lower the pleasure we had during this trip. And living the preparation of the TAT party was also a great opportunity. These are my first impressions. Perhaps Frederic, Gisele, Isabelle, will give you their testimonies. And thanks again for your reception and birthday. 

Best regards, 

Charles 

Today is the end of my journey in Vietnam. Unfortunately, I did not have time to thank you for your excellent work and professionalism. My family remains delighted with this trip and keeps a great memory of this beautiful country. I wanted to give you a feedback of our impressions starting with Hanoi and its region: perfect! Our guide was more than competent and spoke impeccable French, we can only recommend because nothing displeased us! Regarding the driver, he was smiling and very kind.

Regarding the center, our guide was competent but his French was very very insufficient, it was very complicated for us to understand sometimes explanations that sometimes was very vague ... some information was really clear and I had to read information on the information boards in English to inform my family of the interest of the place. We certainly do not recommend this guide who is struggling to be understood in French despite great kindness.

Driver was very well. Regarding the south, it was like the north, very well and guide spoke a French worthy of France. To recommend without hesitation because in addition to a French sometimes, our guide was very kind; as I said, like our guide to the region of Hanoi. The driver was not very smiling and a bit raw but was very friendly. In summary a very very good trip with you!

Guides up to our expectations (except for the central region) and a very successful trip! A huge congratulations to your team and a big THANK YOU to you all!

If a member of your team wishes to come to discover our beautiful country of France, you can also join my family by adding Domaine Armand David on Facebook, it is with pleasure that we will welcome you at home! Thank you again and see you again.

Cordially,

François

Hello,

Regarding our choice to leave with Authentik Vietnam, we asked for other quotes and we were not convinced of the proposed itineraries. Friends to our daughter, living in Hong Kong, recommended you.

Regarding the route:
Hanoi. Interesting, but the stay too long, besides it's tiring because of the noise and not being able to walk in the sidewalks
Homestay, too, very interesting and enjoyable
Ancient Capital, interesting, with little content
Ha Long Bay. Excellent from all points of view
Phu Quoc, excellent
Seam Reap Very good too.

Regarding the travel, the drivers, we are very happy with the service.
The choice of hotels also met our criteria

Regarding guides:
Ms. Ha, very well-educated, an excellent level of French, but she was not always good advice. In Hanoi, we discovered the city of ourselves, and surely we did not know it well. She spent a lot of time on the history of the ethnographic museum, while visiting the typical houses was interesting, but we had little time.

In Ha Long, the guide was excellent. Animator, full of enthusiasm, communicating the joy of living and showing his country. Very cultivated and pleasant
In Cambodia, despite some difficulties in understanding the focus of our guide, we were very happy with him. He was pleasant in every way, helpful, attentive and wanting to show us the maximum possible. Excellent choice.
We have also paid too much for our souvenirs because traders do not display prices, and it is difficult to negotiate when the language is not understood.

Thank you again for the welcome you have given us and we hope to contribute to the improvement of future trips

Best regards

We have just travelled in Jan 2017 in Vietnam and Cambodia on a private trip for 4, nearly 3 weeks after having been organized the trip from France on internet with Authentik Travel Vietnam (which had been recommended by others who have used their services several times)

It was a very nice trip, well organized, well balance with good discovery of the local life, cooking, “must see” sites. High quality hotels, comfortable vehicles with serious drivers, friendly guides, varied  meals, off beaten track travel. Boat trip and flight were on time (a problem with Vietnam airlines was solved without any problem) Especially when someone does not master English well as in our case.
In short, a perfect trip that meets our expectations.
