Amazing trip to Thailand

13-Jun-23

We've just returned from our incredible journey to Thailand! Toni, you're an absolute superstar for orchestrating the exact trip we had envisioned. I want to extend my utmost appreciation to our guides, Jira and Lid, as they truly excelled in their roles. Our driver, Mr. Pod, was equally remarkable. He navigated us safely across the country and was incredibly considerate during our frequent restroom breaks. I'd like to commend your agency for providing us with such exceptional individuals, who contributed to what can only be described as the tour of a lifetime. Please convey our heartfelt gratitude to Jira, Lid, and Mr. Pod for the fantastic experience they offered us throughout our journey. Once again, Toni, thank you immensely for your outstanding work. Sending you many blessings for a job exceptionally well done!

Perfect holidays in India

13-Jun-23

I've had the pleasure of using Bravo for holidays from the UK to India twice, and both times, Lynn has masterfully handled our arrangements. The first trip, in 2019, was with my daughter, and as two females traveling to India for the first time, I had initial concerns. However, those worries were entirely unnecessary, as everything ran seamlessly, and we had an incredible time. In fact, our experience was so exceptional that we couldn't resist returning with the family. Originally, we had booked our return trip for April 2020, but due to Covid restrictions, we had to reschedule for March 2023. Throughout this process, Lynn kept us well-informed and, when the time came, crafted an outstanding itinerary for us. The hotels were top-notch, and the service provided by the drivers and guides was truly fantastic. Now, as we begin to plan our next big adventure, we have no doubt that we'll turn to Odynovo once again. Why risk using another operator when Bravo Tours's service is so consistently fabulous? I cannot recommend them highly enough for their flawless execution of our perfect holidays in India.

Incredible trekking itinerary to Annapurna Base Camp

12-May-23

For the past four years, Angie has planned multiple vacations for us throughout Asia. I’m very excited about our upcoming trip to Nepal. Angie has put together an incredible trekking itinerary to Annapurna Base Camp for four of us in late February. We have limited time to do this trek and Angie found a way to make it work with our schedule. We will tour Kathmandu on our first day in Nepal and then over seven days we will trek to and from ABC, covering about 115km and 3060m of altitude. Angiehas booked us in delightful hotels and tea houses for the whole trip. Based on past trips that Angiehas planned for us, we are excited and confident that this trip will be one we will never forget.

Our guides and driver were great!

11-Jul-23

Working with Toni was an exceptional experience. From the outset, she collaborated with us to create the perfect itinerary for our family trip to Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam, which included two teenage boys. Toni maintained communication throughout our journey, keeping us informed about any changes or delays to our itinerary. At every airport, we were greeted by English-speaking native guides, each of whom shared the beauty of their respective countries with us.

Excellent Holiday in Vietnam

12-Oct-23

Our journey through Vietnam was nothing short of exceptional, all thanks to Bravo Indochina Tours. If you're fortunate enough to have Cathy as your itinerary mastermind, you're in for the smoothest trip imaginable. Cathy was outstanding right from the start, crafting the entire journey to align perfectly with our desires. Our guides, Tu?n and Victor, were the cherry on top of our experience. Their profound knowledge and insightful commentary added layers of history and culture to our adventure. This trip stands out as one of the best I've ever embarked on, and I'm no stranger to globetrotting. Without a doubt, I'll turn to Bravo Indochina Tours again for future travel plans in different countries. This journey struck the ideal balance between immersing us in authentic Vietnamese culture and exploring iconic tourist destinations.

12-May-23

Our two weeks in Indochina were seamlessly organized, thanks to the fantastic coordination by Toni. Quick email responses were consistent throughout the trip. The experiences were amazing, with a special highlight being the homestay lunch � we recommend asking for more of these. The variety of temples was impressive, each distinct from the last. A word of caution: Halong Bay can get extremely busy during excursions, and we would consider spending more to avoid crowds in the future. The tour company was faultless, offering plenty of opportunities to customize the tour to our preferences. We particularly appreciated the smaller, friendlier hotels and wish we had requested more of them.We have just booked our second trip with Bravo Tours and it always professional and helpful at all times

Michael

Truly exceptional

15-Jul-23

Our experience with Bravo Indochina Tours, from the initial planning stages to the actual tour, was truly exceptional. The tour guides, who provided services in Spanish, were particularly wonderful. They were consistently responsive to our inquiries, exhibiting both promptness and politeness. Punctuality was their forte, eliminating any waiting time on our part, and they diligently fulfilled every promise outlined in the itinerary. I wholeheartedly recommend Bravo Indochina Tours for your trip to Thailand. The Thai people, known for their warmth, politeness, and gratitude ??, enhanced our overall experience. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Bravo Indochina Tours for crafting such a remarkable trip. If you're inclined towards adventure, I highly recommend spending more days in Phi Phi than in Bangkok. It adds an extra layer of excitement to your journey.

Our tour guides were not only informative but also impeccably prepared, adding depth and insight to our exploration of the region.
