What Our Customers Saying...
Our 18-day private tour for two couples through Thailand and Siem Reap/Cambodia was nothing short of epic. From the initial planning with clear, responsive communication, we knew we were in expert hands.
The moment we landed, every detail was seamlessly handled. We were met by a series of incredibly courteous drivers and deeply knowledgeable guides who masterfully paced our journey—no visit ever felt rushed. They transformed stunning sites like the ancient ruins of Sukhothai into living history.
Along the tour, many lunches (if not all) were included; they were a-la-carte meals, a culinary delight, offering an incredible selection of authentic local dishes that pleased even our pickiest eater while becoming a highlight for our more adventurous friends. The curation was exceptional. Our hotels were great, with the Sukhothai Heritage Resort and Saii Phi Phi Village being a true slice of paradise.
Their excellence was truly proven when a flight was abruptly cancelled. Our tour contact, Kea, proactively presented solutions immediately, turning a potential disaster into a minor hiccup.
Note: We decided to take the Siem Reap part on our own, as my husband had already been there. This was not an issue, and Indochina Tour was very helpful arranging the flights to and from. In short, this trip was a perfect harmony of meticulous planning and flexible freedom. We felt completely cared for while exploring some of the world's most beautiful places. An unparalleled experience we cannot recommend highly enough.
My wife and I were in Burma November 15-19 and we travelled around the city of Yangon to see the fabulous Schwedagon Pagoda and the old colonial buildings. We flew from Yangon to Mandalay the next morning to catch a glimpse of the many pagodas that dotted this former capital.
Our very gracious tour guides Winthu and Sithu were just an example of how to be a good host.they made sure to provide everything that we need.and they both know their country’s History and culture as well.local food is delicious.places that we’ve been through are safe.thank you Indochine Tours for arranging our tour in Burma.
Our trip was faultless. Every aeroplane, train and boat were on time as were all our guides and drivers.The standard of hotels and vehicles were very good and the drivers excellent. Our guides were knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Our trip included lots of cultural experiences as well as the expected visits to the usual tourist sites. We enjoyed watching traditional dancing,boat trips, a massage, kayaking, karaoke, circus skills, puppet shows as well as several dinners with a show.
The food was excellent and Kea and Amara planned us an excellent itinerary. We had almost instant responses from them to any queries before our trip, and they ensured we knew of any changes of arrangements promptly. (One hotel had flooding &we were given an excellent replacement hotel with no stress for us at all) Our guides were sensitive to ensuring our visits to Temples etc were as crowd-free as was possible but allowed us plenty of time to absorb our surroundings/ museum exhibits and info etc.
We cannot praise Indochina Tours enough and were very impressed with Kea and Amara's inputs.
We are two woman whose husbands want the security of us traveling with a competent driver and guide! And we felt like rock stars scooped up from the airport and they ensured every day would be the best experience for us. Kea put so much careful work in to our itinerary, but it was the driver and guide who pivoted the schedule to make the most of our time.
Somehow we dodged two big storms because of their conscientious attention to detail. Our guide saw many hikers slipped in the mud, so he rerouted us. He wanted us to see the Golden Hand Bridge in good weather so adjusted that schedule too. Every hotel was gorgeous and we felt like they were happy to see us. The guides spoke great English and really added so much knowledge and laughter to our tour. We felt so cared for and privileged to do this tour!
From start to finish this was an excellent experience. First time with a private and will certainly consider doing another. Everything thing was first class and as regular small group Travellers we can highly recommend Pheakdey and Kea and Indochina tours.
Indochina Tour designed our trip of 20 days to Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. Some days we had private tour guides ((they were the best and their English was very good) or we joined another tour for a day with a group of tourists. The guides and the drivers that took us to the airports, train station , cruise ship etc.. were always on time and very polite.
Our different advisors in the Head Quarters in Siem Reap and other locations, always answered our questions and solved any issues (e.g flooding in Hoi An as we needed to change the hotel). Indochina tour has done its outmost to let us experience the culture and enjoyment of the place of visit. We rode Tuk Tuk, a train, a cruise ship, trekked in rice fields and by villages. This outfit was concerned about our safety and provided good to excellent hotels in good locations, for our comfort. Thank you Indochina Tour.
Sreyprov from Indochina Tour arranged a magnificent private 18 day tour to Thailand & Vietnam. Everything from the moment we arrived to our last day was excellent! The tour schedule & each of the 6 tour guides were very professional, knowledgeable, respectful & friendly. The service we received from Sreyprov & also the operations manager Kea was exceptional, nothing was too much trouble almost an immediate response to any question raised by email or WhatsApp, both before and during the tour, I felt confident that we were always in capable hands.
Anyone considering to use the services of Indochina Tour, especially Sreyprov & Kea, I would highly recommend them & would have no hesitation to make a reservation. Personally, I am already considering my next Asian adventure with them!
We had the most amazing tour!! We were very late in planning this trip and Sreypov, our Travel Consultant help with the initial planning, tailoring the trip to exactly what we want. Once we made the decision, we had Kea to help us every step of the way. I texted A LOT and I always got a quick response and all the answers I needed. The guides were wonderful, gave great insight to what we were seeing and I felt like we learned so much from them. We enjoyed all the places we visited.
Please do not hesitate to book a trip with Indochina Tours!! Sreypov and Kea are wonderful and will help to ensure you have the best time.
Our 1:1 travel consultant will reply you with a detailed quotation within 0.5-23.5 hours.
