Indochina journey with experince amazing

Published on Sep, 2016

we actually did the 18 day Indochina tour which included Vietnam. This was the first time we had travelled with Zambaka and found the whole experince amazing. We traveled with a great team of of people as well which was important. We are both in our late 60's and found nothing too overwhelming and the guides were extremely helpful, kind and considerate. Would definatley go with them again.

Great, experience Vietnam and Cambodia

Published on Jul, 2016

If you want to experience Vietnam and Cambodia as a local, while helping their economies in a socially responsible way then Zambaka Travel is your tour company. Zambaka's guides are highly intelligent, knowledgeable people who care about their countries. The schedule listed on the website is the true schedule. I would recommend Zambaka to anyone and have told my friends and family to take a trip with them.

Vietnam Impressions

Published on Jun, 2016

Guide Cuong, he is passionate about his people and places. We enjoyed informative speeches and humor on our tours and he did make us feel special. He was willing to accommodate small changes to our itinerary ti suit us better. Everything simply fell into place for a very comfortable trip. Hotels good and the coach service was relaxing & worry free. Cold water on the coach is a great idea.

A great holiday

Published on Jun, 2016

The trip was very well organised and gave an excellent insight into Vietnam's highlights. For a first trip to Asia, there is culture shock in the traffic, the electric wiring, the sheer busyness of the place. Even Halong Bay is busy, with many cruise ships! As a learning experience, it is excellent in that you get a real feel for the place in a very short time with a very varied mix of experiences. Don't miss out on kayaking in Halong Bay, cycling in Hoi An, taking a cooking class, visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels and the moped tour in Hue. The food is very good but be careful with the water! We had a great holiday in good company with an excellent tour guide, Hoa.
