Above are some of the questions that you can ask your travel agent when preparing for your holiday in Vietnam. Of course, there are more questions that can help you to have an unforgettable trip in Vietnam, and we have listed them out for you, too!
1, What are the advantages of booking a private tour?
A: You will have a much greater sense of control and freedom from the time of planning. You will feel more comfortable and secure during your tours with us because you are in control of your itinerary. This is particularly important when you are traveling with children, seniors, or people needing special care. Let’s check out the benefits of going on our private tours as below:
- Itinerary Flexibility: The tour will be customized or tailor-made according to your needs. During the tour, you can easily skip the activities that you do not like, explore options for additional activities, and tweak our itinerary as needed.
- Private transportation and tour guide: During the sightseeing tours you will be accompanied by your own driver, car and tour guide. This means your question will be answered promptly, personally and your interests are at the top priority. You can take your time to enjoy the sites and go wherever you want at your leisure, without being dependent on other groups of people.
- Your hand-picked accommodations: You can also handpick hotels of different levels for your own holiday and we can customize your itinerary for you from there.
- Your own meal choices: You can choose to go for our meal plan with more variety of local food, or not include a meal plan and be totally open to a culinary adventure.
2, How much does this tour cost?
A: The actual price is calculated depends on the hotel level you stay, the mode of transportation, meals provided, experienced tour guides or not and after all the level of services. For these reasons, you will be getting a highly personalized tour that has been designed around your specific interests.
3, When and where does the tour end? Can I choose where I want to end the tour?
A: One of the best things about booking a private tour is the personalized Itinerary with maximum flexibility. That means you are the person who set up your travel dates & where to end the tour.
Asia Trip Deals will first provide you a detailed itinerary with an ideal route. You can take your time to search for the best international flight deals and come back to us with your preferred travel dates. If re-routing the trip is necessary, please let us know, we are happy to follow up and make changes to the itinerary.
4, Does the tour price include international airfares?
A: Our tour price does not cover the airfare of your international flights. We will leave this to you as the cheapest deal is always at your end.
Our US clients often fly with United Airlines/ Korean Air/ Cathay Pacific/ China Airlines/ China Southern. To get the best deal, please check it out at www.kayak.com or www.cheapair.com by using the multi-cities search. Or you can make an online reservation on the official website of airlines.
5, Is there a hotel list available?
A: From the time of booking, you can easily request your accommodation based on your budget. You can also handpick hotels of different levels for your own holiday and Indochina Pioneer can customize your itinerary for you from there.
If you are uncertain about what hotels to stay, your private travel consultant can support you. A list of suggested hotels (with their official websites) can be provided from the beginning stage. Should one of them is not available, an alternative hotel option can be found to advise.
6, How can I deal with hiccups on tour?
A: There probably will be “hiccups” that arise when traveling. Most of them, thankfully, are minor but some can be major. You should first update your hiccup condition to your travel consultant and tour guide as soon as possible. Travel agent will consider your case then, take you to the hospital to get the examination and doctor’s advice based on your health condition. Early prevention is always the best way for everyone.
7, May I ask for a change after paying the first deposit?
A: Yes, that is absolutely possible. Our package is based on a private tour so that we are flexible to amend/change anything to match your interests and budget. We do recommend our clients to make changes sooner as possible before their arrival to get the best services accordingly.
