Manish's 10 days trip to Hanoi
We visited Vietnam and Cambodia in November 2019. Jenney of LVP travel helped us planned this trip in Month of April. She was extremely helpful and transparent. Her response to your query is generally in one hour with the solutions. Sometimes she just upgrades you without charging extra fees. Once fees are finalize then there is no hidden cost to be given. Everything is written in black and white. Her selection of touring spots, hotels, guides, transportation, airport pick up, drop off, Tour planning is extremely superb. I will advise anyone and everyone to take help of LVP and specially Jenney to plan your tour to Vietnam. Guides ( Dragon, James) real name may be different were good too. They also arranged for good Indian Restaurant for us to eat.Varun Rajesh Bantia

Pradeep's 10 days trip to Hanoi
Sophie of Bamboo Hat and Rakhi of Travel Triangle are wonderful professionals. They made our schedule of 10 days to Vietnam and Cambodia well thought and well planned. It had great sight seeing but liesure included inbetween so both me and my wife(74 and 67 years) really enjoyed. Their local tours are well selected. The hotels were very good and at best locations. The tour guides were lively, humorous, informed and above all good time keepers. Sophie booked our internal flights (HCM-Danang-Hanoi-Siem Reap) most suitably timed so that we could get good break and rest too. This trip of ours was most enjoyable, relaxing and reassuring. My best wishes to Sophie and Rakhi. Keep it up.Samir Jitendra Javeri

It was such a smooth experience dealing with LVP travel and the itinerary planner Jenny! Everything was planned v well and our whole group of 12 had very enjoyable trip in reasonable cost.

Gurminder's 9 days trip to Hanoi
All hotels except Bay Hotel at HCMC had a great experience. Bay hotel was more interested in teaching us the rules and regulations of the hotel and less interested in looking after the guests. Angkor and stay in Seim Reap. Sea cruise is good but over hyped Another best part of the trip was knowing and interacting with local people, all were so nice , friendly and simple.Property Types in Hanoi
