Everything about this cruise was fine except that we never got to or even close to Bai Tu Long Bay. Early the 2nd day, still in Ha Long Bay (I was tracking this on Google Maps), the propeller apparently fell off our boat and we spent most of the day anchored, awaiting repair. The scheduled activities--kayaking, beach time, beach BBQ, etc., --continued unabated, and repairs were effected on the night of the second day. The third day's activities continued as scheduled, all in Ha Long Bay, nothing ever in Bai Tu Long Bay. Few apologies were offered, and, given the worsening economic situation in Vietnam, we did not complain. The sales pitch was all about Bai Tu Long, how uncrowded it is, etc., but we never saw it.

We chose Mr Linh's based on our friends' recommendation. The replies from the agent were prompt, and it was easy to make changes or ask questions. Our itinerary was fairly straight forward, and you can check all the accommodations as they provide an itinerary with links to hotels and homestays. Both our guide and driver were excellent. At all times we felt safe when Mr Long was behind the wheel. Mr Son was very knowledgeable about the area, and he also picked up quickly our favourite dishes and our average hiking/trekking speed. We did a 9D/8N trip, and had to do small changes along the way (like skipping motorbike riding as it was a rainy day going from Ha Giang to Dong Van, and then staying one extra night in Dong Van waiting for the rain to stop). The changes were not an issue to Mr Son. We had a small misunderstanding, but even that was duly noted and communicated to us. We went to places where there were no other tourists, and it was really wonderful to enjoy the fresh air, amazing sceneries, colourful tribes and see people at their daily chores. Our itinerary was Hanoi-Hoang Su Phi-Ban Phung-Ha Giang-Dong Van-Cao Bang/Quang Uyen-Ban Gioc Falls-Quang Uyen-Hanoi. To see the rice fields in full colour, I would suggest going latest early October. Around mid-October a lot of the rice had already been harvested, but still plenty being harvested by the locals, mostly women. I would strongly recommend Mr Linh's for travels to Northern Vietnam.

I visited Northern Vietnam again and did a solo trip to visit Ha Giang with Bamboo Adventures. Even with only me in the trip, everything was well-organized and I had the feeling of being welcome by all the friendly people during my tour, from the super guide Jack to all the local hosts. Food was incredible and typical of Vietnamese taste. I loved the trip and highly appreciated the arrangement from Bamboo Adventures.

Outstanding Bike rental service. I have to say that I am on a budget traveler but at the same time very demanding with the services I purchase. Before coming across this shop I contacted many rental shops in Hanoi. This one was by far the one with better motorbikes, the newest bikes, better prices and absolutely outstanding service provide by Mr Bihn that went above and beyond to provide me with the best service. I can only say thanks, I rented with him twice. He is super friendly and easy going. He provides good helmet, and bag rack on the back if needed at no extra cost. First time I rented a super newish Honda for 5 days that ended up being 11. The motorbike behaved fantastically. He was in direct contact with me to ensure I was having no issues. Second time I rented a bike for 7 days to go to Cao Ban province. He advised me semi manual but I ended renting an authomatic Honda Old looking bike. The motorbike broke down 2 days after initiating my trip but he reacted extraordinarily quickly by sending a brand new motorbike semi manual the day after on a bus and offered me to rent the bike for 2 additional days at no extra cost which was a super nice gesture. Best bikes, best price, best customer service, best on road service. When I come back I will rent with him again and you should do it now too !!

I have been living and working in Southern Vietnam for 10 years and I love this country very much. On our first time to visit the North, we decided to travel to Ha Giang, Ban Gioc Waterfall, and Ba Be Lake. We chose Conical Travel according to one of our friends who did the trip with them. The six-day trip amazed and impressed us with the beauty of the natural landscape in the moutainous areas. Each of the destinations we visited has its own mesmerizing features and we had chance to interact with the local people. Our kids had great lessons about how the people in these regions survive without the modernization. In short, the trip was very very very excellent. We love Vietnam so much, from the bottom of our hearts! Andrew, Lorna & kids
