Anna was the person who helped me during the entire procedure. She was really responsive, and the tour went very nicely. The pricing quote was higher than one of the websites I checked. Anna was able to honor the price. BTW, it appears that this is a regular procedure; they will charge you 3% when you use a credit card. However, I am not sure how to schedule an international vacation without using a credit card when prepayment is required. Less

We had an excellent time on both the orchid cruise and the food tour. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Jasmine from the booking agency was very attentive and gave excellent service. She was constantly available on WhatsApp to answer any queries regarding our booking, arrange all transportation, and make recommendations throughout our trip. Everything went so perfectly on our trip, which was primarily due to the fantastic care we received.
We will definitely contact Jasmine for future bookings the next time we are in Vietnam. Thank you for the excellent service! Less
We went on a three-day, two-night Halong Bay cruise with Orchid Classic, which we booked through Best Price. Janet from BestPrice Travel was fantastic throughout; she helped us choose the correct room, communicated clearly, and made itinerary changes for us. Such a wonderful experience!
My family had a wonderful time on the 2D1N cruise organized by Best Price Tours. Janet deserves special recognition for her excellent performance! She ensured that everything was well planned and kept me up to date on all the details and arrangements.

Janet deserves special recognition for her excellent performance! She ensured that everything was well planned and kept me up to date on all the details and arrangements.
Janet was the most impressive tour agent I have ever met. Unfortunately, I missed out on a food tour due to a late day trip. Without my request, Janet offered to replace this food tour package with a free airport transfer. This was really outstanding! She coordinated the transfer until the very end and even texted to see if we had arrived at the airport. Simply exceptional.
If you are looking for the best deal on a trip, contact Janet. You will not regret it, just as I did when I wrote a review for her. Less
We booked a 2-night Halong cruise through BestPrice Travel in Ho Chi Minh. Anna received our request and organised the tour immediately. Thanks for her support, the booking process was so fast and the cruise tour was amazing. Anna also arranged the transfer from Hanoi to Ninh Binh for us and it was excellent, too. Definitely recommend Bestprice Travel for those planning to visit Vietnam.
