Food was very good at Indian places but not very happy with the buffet in sapa . Think a better arrangement for food for Indian customers
Guide should have been available throughout the tour . We were facing communication issues with the driver .
Cruise was good but the biggest drawback was the Internet. This was not available for the full cruise. Suggest inform clients about it in advance
Special focus should be given in getting rooms together, especially family travelling together
Rest was fantastic and we really had fun

Sa Pa and Halong are 2 cities that i always want to visit so I book this tour immediately after reading the itinerary. And the tour did not let me down. I have a chance to experience both trekking and staying on cruise.
The guide took good care of us and always ready to help.
However, this trip requires a lot of transporting and walking so I think it will be suitable for young people more.

Hien Kim, our point of contact at Bestrate, comes strongly recommended by me when it comes to traveling advice. When we needed her, she was there for us and extremely helpful and responsive throughout the entire planning process for our journey to Vietnam, from assisting with visa applications to arranging airport transportation and lodging accommodations in Hanoi. The trip was incredible, and Halong Bay and the boat in particular, were breathtaking.

I reserved a 4-day trip that take us to Sapa and Halong Bay and reliazed Bestrate was a fantastic travel group to associate with. The tour guide in Sapa (Peter Hien) did an outstanding job of taking care of us, and the price was the most reasonable we found among similar excursions. I will undoubtedly suggest that my friends and family go on this trip.

In order to go from Hanoi to Sapa through Ha Long Bay, my companion and I purchased a full-service customized trip of North Vietnam through Bestrate. Mario Nguyen, a member of the Bestrate crew, has been a pleasure to work with. He was always accessible to answer our questions and fix any issues we had, including switching from a double share room to two single beds. He has also assisted us with our numerous scheduling changes. The vacation to Sapa was excellent, with excellent service from the hotel and homestay employees, especially our H'Mong tour guides, Ms. Lee and Miss Za.
We had excellent instructions from the hotel personnel in Hanoi at the La Suit Hotel in Hoan Kiem, and they were always welcome, pleasant, and helpful. The hotel's buffet breakfast was also fantastic, with ready-to-order eggs your way and lovely fruits. While the Halong cruise was lovely and offered us a wonderful overview of Halong's grandeur, Sapa was the trip's high point. Although the terrain made for challenging walking, the reward was well worth it! If you go to Sapa, you must have the mulled wine at the nearby Dutch Bar, which is next to the Tavan Guesthouse.
This was a fantastic trip that left us with priceless memories that we won't soon forget. I'll most certainly utilize Bestrate once again.
