We will be booking more trips in the future.
Reviewed By A. Sims - Washington, DC | Traveled to Hanoi ~ Vietnam ~ East and Southeast Asia
Excellent customer service and willingness to making sure the customer is satisfied. My family and I had the pleasure of experiencing a great driver and tour guide during our trip to Vietnam recently. The tour guide was very professional and knew the country very well. We appreciated all of their help. During our Halong Bay cruise the staff was very courteous and friendly as well. The cruise activities were great! However, the food on the cruise ship was ok... other than ok food, everything was awesome! Thank you Expats Traveling Group specifically Mia McDonaldi! We will be booking more trips in the future.

Experience and Attention to Detail
Reviewed By D. Koschill - Singapore, Singapore | Traveled to Southeast Asia ~ East and Southeast Asia
We'd booked a tour already but didn't understand the need for additional logistics, and unfortunately, the tour company expected us to handle our pre and post-tour details on our own. Thankfully, we reached out to Mia at Expats Traveling Group. Mia's experience and attention to detail helped us fill in some big accommodation and transportation gaps. Her recommendations and guide services ensured our time in Borneo went off without a hitch.
