i am writing to let you know that we are back in Japan after a great holiday in Vietnam and to thank you Salute Vietnam Travel for all the reservation you have made for us. Everything went well without any problems at all. Only thing I can complain is about the boat company charging us for the wine and the beer they supplied after indicating that we don`t need to pay for it. At that time we thought it was too good to be true. ' never saw the price list and when we asked if we had to pay for it they said no. This could have been due to language problem. But the guide also confirmed that. We and the other guests in the boat were unhappy when we were presented with a bill at the end of the trip.

Apart from that misunderstanding the Ha Long Bay trip was very enjoyable and I wish to thank you again for the excellent service you have provided us.

I am sure I will contact you when I make our next trip to Vietnam and also I will recommend you to my other friends who plan to travel there.

We would like to thank you for everything that you organized for us when we went to Vietnam.
The guides, drivers, hotels etc were very good.
We have recommended your company to people who we thought may go to Vietnam at some stage.

Our only complaint was the constant harassment by the locals in Sapa.
We felt like staying at the hotel because of the constant asking "you buy, you buy from me" etc.
Other tourists were saying the same thing. We realize that it's their way of making money but being abused because we didn't always buy wasn't too good.
We could not look around in peace.
We realize you won't be able to do anything about it but if there is some way that they could be advised to be not so persistent, tourists would be happier.

The boat trip was great too, the food was excellent.
We really enjoyed our stay in Vietnam.

The guide we had in Sapa was very kind and we enjoyed spending the Tet festival with him.

Thanks again for everything and would you please thank everyone who looked after us again.
