“the easy way to travel independantly in Vietnam and...”

written by on 21/10/2014

The significance of vouchers for everything had not occured to us until the first transfer in Ho Chi Min.There was one other couple who had an ammended schedule and we saw very little of us.(I think they were trying to avoid us!) However we are used to travelling independantly and this method made it easy, especially not having to compete for taxis in a strange airport.It did seem a little bit of a waste of resources to have the four of us travel in separate vehicles to the same destination, especially with a minivan to ourselves. That is one negative comment.
Our hotels were very different in style and perhaps Somadevi Ankor was not worth all the stars, but for compensation, the staff, the lobby, pool and location were excellent. Windsor Plaza was not good location wise although there was a shuttle bus, but the food and ambience was so good that there was no need to go out at night for the three nights we were there. It suited our age ability.In any case it poured down each evening.Calypso Grand in Hanoi was a delight even though we had an internal room with no window. Palm Beach Hoi An again was a bit far but we coped with that. Finally the Alova Gold Cruise was perfect. The food was the best we tasted in Vietnam and that is saying something.Hotels were geared towards booking excursions like Angkor Wat which added to the individuality. This meant that we met a whole range of people instead of kust the package group.

In all, good organisation and sensible timings and overall, excellent hotels.

Finally we thought it was excellent value for money. We got so much.
