New ZealandWe had an incredible, once-in-a-lifetime experience and would strongly suggest the RV Mekong Princess if you are considering traveling the Mekong. The boat, the crew, the meals on board, and the cultural trips were all excellent. We are experienced travelers and cannot recommend this vacation strongly enough. Janet Tran from Best Price Travel was fantastic to do business with, confirming all of the arrangements, and her communication was superb. I would strongly recommend them as a booking agent.

United StatesAnna at BestPrice Travel was really helpful and speedy in scheduling my river vacation on the Mekong Princess. It was an absolutely fantastic trip at an incredible value, and Anna was kind, polite, and incredibly attentive. She answered all of my inquiries quickly. She also arranged for me to stay in hotels that were both comfortable and conveniently located: within walking distance of fantastic restaurants and markets, as well as in the heart of highly fascinating cities! I would strongly suggest her! This has been one of my favorite travel experiences, both working with Anna and throughout the trip.
