First of all, I would like to thank you for organasing such a wonderful trip for us. I had a really nice time in Vietnam & Cambodia and I am looking forward to bringing more people there. I would like to express that we did not have a single problem. Everything was very nice and I really love Hue and all arrangements there: - Fantastic place... I loved everything in that city. - We kept the river cruiser short because our guide said that we had a short time and it was impossible to do everything by boat, so we only did a short 15 min. boat ride. - We should definitely stay longer in Hue. Hotel was the best we've stayed in and we should stay here longer. - We have seen almost everything in Hue but especially the Imperial palace deserves more time. So we should definitely stay more in this city. - Our guide and driver were wonderful guys... Driver should learn a bit English but despite the language barrier, we communicated very well. 5 stars to both of them... Thank you again. Burak (Tour Amazing Vietnam and Cambodia from 12/9 - 26 /9/2011) Ms Burak from Spain
