Q. What did you most enjoy about your Vietnam Family Adventure?
A. We loved the food, the culture and the people were incredible. It was so lovely to see the children exploring during the homestay in Mai Chau – they were so relaxed and excited. The accommodation was so clean and the swimming pool was an added bonus!
Q. Did you have any favourite activities?
A. The boat trip on Halong Bay was amazing, and we thoroughly enjoyed kayaking and swimming on the beach. The overnight sleeper train and exploring the caves were highlights too.
Q. You mentioned loving the culture and people – can you share why?
A. Everyone was so helpful and kind. We felt safe and cared for, and nothing was too much trouble. It was amazing knowing that our guide was able to tailor our experience for us – they even arranged an electric bus when I wasn’t feeling up to the final bicycle ride around the vegetable field in Hoi An!
Q. What was the highlight of your Cambodia and Thailand holiday?
A. It’s difficult to name one event or place that stands out above the others! We visited so many places and have so many beautiful memories and photos. Every experience was enriching for us. In Cambodia, Phnom Sampov and Battambang were beautiful. We loved riding the bamboo railway, going on a street food tour in Siem Reap and seeing Angkor Wat. Thailand was also fantastic. Kanchanaburi was just out of this world and we enjoyed the waterfalls, rafting down the River Kwai, the historical tour, the food experiences and the temples. Ayutthaya was fascinating, and Wat Phalad and Wat Phra That Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai were so majestic.
Q. Did your teenage niece enjoy the holiday too?
A. Yes! She loved the bamboo railway, the waterfalls and the cooking experience at Grandma’s Thai Cooking School! She learnt a lot about the culture and history – particularly around World War II and the Death Railway.
Q. Would you recommend booking with Families Worldwide?
A. Absolutely! I’m so grateful for their support and guidance, and their whole booking process is so easy and trouble-free. Even when we missed our connecting flight home to the UK, they were so calming and reassuring, and saved us from feeling lost in Bangkok airport. They found us accommodation and a flight home the next day! There was no stress and no hassle.
