⭐ Amazing trip overall!
One thing we really appreciated was how smooth the whole trip was. We didn't have to spend time figuring out transportation or booking everything ourselves, so we could just enjoy the places we visited. The local food was also a big highlight for us, especially in Hoi An and Hanoi.
We got to see mountains, the sea, old towns and some beautiful attractions all in one trip. Our favorite places were probably Sapa and Hoi An because they had such different atmospheres. Overall, it was a memorable trip and we would happily choose this tour again.

The itinerary was quite busy, but we got to see many different places without feeling like we were missing out. We started in Hanoi and then went to Sapa. Fansipan was definitely one of the highlights, and Cat Cat Village was also really nice to walk around and take photos. The next day, we visited Moana before heading back to Hanoi. Halong Bay was another great experience. We joined the 1-day trip, enjoyed the scenery, had lunch on the boat and spent a relaxing day on the bay. After that, we flew to Danang and visited Coconut Forest and Hoi An Ancient Town. Hoi An in the evening was beautiful, and we really enjoyed walking around and trying some local food. Ba Na Hills was also worth visiting, especially the Golden Bridge and French Village. Everything was well arranged and we didn't have to worry much about transportation or the schedule. Some days were a little tiring because we moved around quite a lot, but overall it was a great trip and we saw so much in just one week. Really happy with the experience and would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Vietnam for the first time.
Highly recommend!

We had a really good time in Vietnam. The trip was quite busy but we got to see a lot in 7 days. We really liked Sapa. Fansipan was amazing and Cat Cat Village was interesting to visit. Moana was also a nice stop for taking photos. Halong Bay was beautiful and the day cruise was very relaxing. We also really enjoyed Hoi An, especially the Coconut Forest and walking around the Ancient Town. Ba Na Hills was fun too. The Golden Bridge was very impressive, although it was quite crowded when we went. Overall, everything went smoothly and we enjoyed the trip. Lots of good food, nice places and great memories!

We really loved Hoi An. The Coconut Forest was a fun experience and then walking around the Ancient Town was the perfect way to spend the afternoon. The atmosphere was so charming and relaxed compared with the bigger cities. Hoi An ended up being one of our favorite places on the trip.

Sapa was definitely one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip. The mountain scenery was beautiful, and going up Fansipan was an amazing experience. We also enjoyed visiting Cat Cat Village and seeing a different side of local life. The weather in Sapa was much cooler than we expected, which was a nice break from the warmer parts of Vietnam.

Sapa is absolutely breathtaking. I first visited Sapa with my friends two years ago, and this time I returned with my family. Happy Vietnam Tours recommended that we also visit Da Nang and Hoi An, and I'm so glad we did. It was an amazing experience. Vietnam always has something new to surprise me every time I visit. I can't wait to come back again!

I joined this tour with my family and had a good experience. The itinerary covered several places, so we were able to see a lot during the trip. I liked visiting Sapa for the cooler weather, taking the cruise in Halong Bay, and spending some time walking around Hoi An. The schedule was clear, and everything was arranged well, so the trip was easy and comfortable. Overall, I was happy with this tour and would recommend it to friends.

We had an amazing 7-day trip through Vietnam. Starting in Hanoi and then heading to Sapa was a great way to begin. We really enjoyed Fansipan and Cat Cat Village, and the mountain scenery was beautiful. Moana in Sapa was also a fun place to visit and take photos.

Halong Bay was another highlight. The limestone islands and calm water made the day feel very different from the mountain experience in Sapa. We then travelled south to Hoi An, where we enjoyed the Coconut Forest and exploring the Ancient Town. Ba Na Hills was a great final sightseeing experience, especially the Golden Bridge and French Village.

Although the trip covered several destinations, each one offered something different. We came home with a lot of great memories and photos.

The Halong Bay day trip was beautiful. Cruising between the limestone islands and enjoying the scenery from the boat was very relaxing. It was a nice change after the busy days in Hanoi and Sapa. Even though it was only a day trip, we had enough time to enjoy the views and take lots of photos.

I enjoyed this tour because I didn't have to worry about planning or getting from one place to another. Everything was arranged in advance, so I could just enjoy the trip. We visited several famous places, had enough time for photos, and the schedule was easy to follow. It was a good experience from beginning to end.

This was our first time visiting Vietnam, and Ha Long Bay became the highlight of our vacation. The Diamond Era Cruise provided exceptional comfort, delicious cuisine, and excellent hospitality. Happy Vietnam Tours organized everything perfectly, making our trip smooth and worry-free. We can't wait to visit again!

This cruise was worth every penny. The Diamond Era Cruise offers luxurious accommodation, delicious food, excellent entertainment, and stunning views of Ha Long Bay. We were impressed by the friendly crew and the outstanding service provided by Happy Vietnam Tours. We would definitely book with them again.

We had a very enjoyable day exploring Hanoi with Happy Vietnam Tours. The itinerary was well planned and took us to some of the city's most famous attractions, including the Ho Chi Minh Complex, Tran Quoc Pagoda, the Temple of Literature, and the Old Quarter.
The cyclo ride through the Old Quarter and the Water Puppet Show were especially memorable. The tour also gave us a better understanding of Hanoi's history, culture, and local way of life.
Everything was well organized, and we had a great time. Highly recommended!

This was my first time in Vietnam, and having 12 days to experience the S-shaped country – according to Talia from Happy Vietnam Tours – was truly an amazing experience. The people were incredibly friendly, the beaches in Da Nang were stunning, the local food was fantastic, and of course, pho was a must. I love every moment in Vietnam trip.
