Je dérirerai faire un circuit Laos-Cambodge-Vietnam .Quelqu'un aurait 'il déjà voyagé avec une de ces trois agences :Hanoivoyage, asiatica-travel ou vietnam original travel ?.Si vous avez voyagé avec eux quel est votre sentiment sur l'organisation?
Merci pour toute réponse
Attends que Abalone passe dans le coin, il te dira lui .
Je n'ai pas envie de favoriser une agence par rapport à une autre.
Sa question est précise. Il faut voyager avec une des agences citées pour donner son avis. La réponse est claire. La plupart diront qu'ils sont contents de leur agence🙂 Et il ne pourra jamais exploiter les réponses recueillies.
Lucky that we have a home/Our Home is Nha May Man/Passing rain and dry seasons/In a full-of-love atmosphere/Besides my new family/I have brothers and sisters/The sun shines over the skies/Let's stay here, with all of us,
Je crois en effet qu'il est préférable d'avoir des avis "vécus" - j'ai entendu dire beaucoup de bien d'une certaine agence... mais c'est tout - donc, attendez donc - et ça ne saurait tarder- qu'un voyageur vous le confirme -
Quant à dire que chacun est content de son agence parce que c'est SON agence... je mettrais un bémol : j'ai vu sur un autre forum une question semblable au sujet d'un voyagiste que j'avais pratiqué, et dont je n'étais vraiment pas contente- je n'étais pas la seule et nous l'avons tous dit.😛😛 - donc, le mieux, attendez des réactions, d'autant que ce sont des agence connues qui ont pignon sur rue -

Voyager c'est aller de soi à soi, en passant par les autres (proverbe touareg)
Toutes les agences font du bon travail, toutes les agences font du mauvais travail ! Je veux dire que c'est toujours en fonction de toi, de tes goûts, de ta façon de vivre le voyage que tu sauras si une agence te convient ou non. Je te propose de les contacter en posant clairement tes exigences, tes envies, tes souhaits, et tu verras déjà ce qu'elles te proposent. Ceci étant ce sont toutes des agences avec pignons sur rue et de taille importante, donc elles ont des produits tout faits et très classiques, donc bien rôdés et sans surprises. Si tu veux voyager autrement et découvrir le Vietnam de façon plus authentique, je te conseille une petite agence, tenue par un vietnamien et un français, qui font du sur-mesure authentique, et qui prépare vraiment le voyage avec chaque client ( téléphone, rencontre en France, ...). Comme je ne suis pas chargé de faire de la pub sur le forum, pour qui que ce soit, contacte-moi sur mon mail.
Bonjour, je suis nouvelle sur le forum. J'ai prévu un voyage au vietnam en Avril/Mai 09, et je suis interressée par les coordonnées de l'agence dont vous parlez.
Merci par avance de me les donner.
Suis aussi intéressé par ces renseignements et cherche à me joindre à d'autres voyageurs pour partager les frais d'un circuit dans le Nord ouest du Nord-Vietnam (Villages -ethnies) courant Avril-Mai 2009
Ex : j'ai une proposition d'une agence locale
Circuit en 4X4 :
Hanoi, Mai Chau, Son La, Sapa, Bac Ha, Hoang Su Phi, Ha Giang, Dong Van, Quang Uyen, Cao Bang, Ba Be, Na Khan, Hanoi
Prix : 15 jours
1 personne 1165 Euros; 2 personnes 659 euros; 3-4 pers 578 euros; Single +90 Euros
Mais d'autres circuits ou propositions sont à rechercher.
bonjour, moi par l'intermédiaire de titou (je crois; de son prenom chantal). J'ai réservé une semaine au sud au bord de plage. L'agence vietnam original travel a été très patient car je ne les connaissais pas, je partais pour la 1ere fois, j'étais très méfiante et peureuse d'arriver là bas et de me retrouver sans rien. Il nous a mis un taxi à disposition dans un confortable 4x4 avec chauffeur très gentil. Nous sommes arrivés à l'hôtel, tout était réservé et prévu. Puis le jour du départ nous avions notre taxi qui nous a ramené à l'aéroport. Très bien, pas de mauvaise surprise. impeccable. Ce n'était pas un circuit mais je pense qu'ils sont assez compétent, sérieux et patient. de plus le directeur parle très bien francais et ils ont un intermédiaire en france rassurant. bon voyage
Nhà quê oi !
Les coordonnées de votre petite agence m'intéressent , certains copains vont partir prochainement pour le VN et voyager comme vous le faites leur conviendra bien mieux que de passer par un tour operator français ou même local.
Merci de me répondre sur MP de V-Forum, mais attendez un peu que j'aie fini de lire tous vos messages.
A bientôt — " Chuc hen gap lai " — Vietalier
Cela dépend de l'humeur du moment et va de Jean-Claude à Viet à lier.
Ayant fait 3 fois en 4x4 la tournee des regions de Ha Giang-Cao Bang-Babe (dont la derniere fois il y a 1 mois), je me permets de vous donner mon opinion, qui est que votre circuit est mal goupille:
1) Vs ne faites pas Dong Van-Quang Uyen ds la journee, car vs ne pouvez faire plus de 20-25km/h de moyenne sur ces routes, qui ne st qu'une succession de virages et de cols, dont certains de 15-20km de long. Dans la portion autour de Tinh Thuc, epouvantable, compter 15-20km/h ! En plus, si vs le faites, vs allez passer a la vitesse Grand V (pour la region!) ds le coin le + fantastique du Vietnam, le fameux col de Ma Pi Lang entre Dong Van et Meo Vac.
2) On ne fait plus Sonla-Sapa ds la journee. La route est en plein travaux entre Sonla et Lai Chau, et pratiquement impassable. Donc, en ce qui concerne cette portion, le truc a faire est
Hanoi-Mai Chau (dejeuner)-Sonla
Sonla-Lai Chau
Lai Chau-Sapa
(Je vs signale que meme moi qui adore Mai Chau commence a en avoir marre; c'est devenu Disneyland, avec les bus et 4x4 gares sous votre nez devant les maisons d'hotes -avec le moteur qui tourne pour avoir la clim en attendant que Messieurs les toursites embarquent le matin) et les touristes asiatiques faisant gueuler la tele a 5-6h du matin; je conseille maintenant juste d'y dejeuner
3) Je ne vois pas ce que vs allez faire a Na Khan, alors qu'il faut 5-6h de route pour faire Babe-Hanoi.
Il me semble que l'itineraire devrait etre
Ha Giang-Dong Van
Dong Van-Bao Lac
Bao Lac-Cao Bang
Cao Bang-chutes de Ban Gioc-Cao Bang
Cao Bang-Babe
Babe-Hanoi
ce qui vs donne le temps de profiter du paysage et de VISITER les endroits ou vs allez (par ex, a Dong Van, la grimpette a pied au vieux fort francais vs offre une vue magnifique sur tte la region, ce que vs ne pourrais pas faire avec votre itineraire)
Si vs debevez recuperer 1 journee, on fait facilement Bac Ha-Ha Giang ds la journee, donc vs pouvez couper la nuit a Hoan Su Phy.
Bien entendu, "on" va surement vs dire que je ne sais pas de quoi je parle, et vs suggerer d'autres itineraires possibles; je ne parle que de mon experience personnelle sur une region que je connais tres bien
Au cas ou vs n'auriez pas lu mes notes de voyages, les voila !

I’d love to get some feedback on our itinerary—it’s probably pretty basic! This is our second trip to Asia and our first to Indonesia. We have three kids aged 20, 18, and 12. We land in Jakarta at 4 PM, spend 3 nights/2 days there, then take the train to Yogyakarta for 3 nights/2 days, followed by the train to Surabaya for 2 nights/1 day, then the train to Bromo for 1 day/1 night, a private driver to Ijen for 2 nights/2 days, then on to Bali (Ubud) for 4 nights/3 days, followed by Gili Air for 3 nights/2 days, Senggigi (Lombok) for 2 nights, and finally 5 nights in Kuta. I’m considering cutting the 2 nights in Senggigi to just keep Kuta and extend it to 7 nights. In Lombok, I’m not sure how to get around since I’m not comfortable with scooters... Your thoughts on all of this, and any advice, are more than welcome—don’t hesitate!
For those wondering why cities like Jakarta and Surabaya: we don’t often get the chance to visit big Asian cities, so we wanted to include that discovery in our trip. The trains between Jakarta and Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Probolinggo are booked. The return flight from Lombok to Jakarta is also set. Accommodations are booked but flexible (same for the trains).
Bonjour à tous,
pouvez vous me donner vos avis sur mon itinéraire de 3 semaines.
nous sommes un petit groupe (famille + amis) 12 personnes, nous envisageons de partir vers le 21 Janvier 2027.
voici mon itinéraire:
3 nuits Bangkok
4 nuits Chang Mai
3 nuits Koh Samui
3 nuits Koh Phangan
4 nuis Krabi
4 nuits Phuket
Si suis également preneur de tout vos bon plan....
Merci à tous, Alain.
Hi! I’m planning a 15-day trip to Malaysia. The idea is to visit KL for 2 or 3 days, then Borneo, and I’m wondering what to do with the rest of the time. I’d like to finish with the Perhentian Islands... What do you think? Any tips or advice would be great—I’d really appreciate it!
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for addresses for guesthouses or, even better, houseboats or rafting houses on the River Kwai, between Kanchanaburi and Sangkhlaburi, to spend a few weeks contemplating this beautiful river.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi there,
we’re currently in Mai Chau and tomorrow we’re hitting the road back to Hanoi to head up toward Bac Ha and Sapa.
We haven’t really had a set plan since we arrived—we’ve already done the Halong Bay on land and by sea.
I’ve got 2 free days before heading to Bac Ha and Sapa.
Any tips?
Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hello.
In 1996, we crossed Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi by motorbike—Minsk bikes we bought in Saigon. I haven’t been back since, and it seems like a lot has changed.
- We’re heading to the south (well, the north and center) with the family in July-August (3 people).
- Is the road network more developed now? Back then, there was only National Route 1 from south to north. I’m thinking of renting a car this time (no motorbike with the family—though in ’96, they had a Jawa sidecar for sale, and we hesitated… maybe it’s for the best).
- Is Halong Bay really something to avoid because of overtourism? Even back then, it was pretty crowded. Is there a less touristy alternative?
- We’ll be traveling from Hanoi down to Danang (the only city we didn’t stop in back in ’96). Even though it’s a bit overhyped in a Chinese-tourist kind of way (from what I’ve read), we’re only going for the beach—pure relaxation for 7 days. The beaches are stunning, and I know the South China Sea is warm like coffee.
- Then, we’ll visit Hoi An, where I stopped in ’96. It was already popular with backpackers back then, but no glowing boats or all the touristy fuss!
- After that, Hue, where I have great memories—it’s a beautiful city.
- And also the nature around Ninh Binh, followed by 2-3 days in Hanoi.
That’s the plan. I’d love to hear any tips to avoid mass tourism, and if anyone’s done this before:
- Is it possible to rent a car in Danang and drop it off in Hanoi?
Hey everyone,
I’m over in East Borneo in mid-July.
I’m struggling to wrap up the end of my itinerary, even though it’s pretty straightforward (long but simple).
Last year, we did Malaysia (KL and the mainland + around Kuching).
Day 1 – Arrive in Kota Kinabalu early, stroll around town and hit the must-sees.
Day 2 – Excursion to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, snorkeling at 3 islands.
Day 3 – Hike around Mount Kinabalu without summiting (450 per person, no way).
Day 4 – Poring Hot Springs + evening flight to Sandakan.
Day 5-6-7 – Kinabatangan River (still looking for the right guide).
Day 8 – Sepilok for the orangutans, the Sun Bear Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre.
Day 9 – Selingan, turtle island.
Day 10 – Head to Semporna.
Day 11-12-13-14 – Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai.
Day 15 – Bohey Dulang.
Day 16 to Day 25: I’M STUCK.
I looked into Danum Valley, but for 3 days/2 nights, they’re quoting 650 € per person—come on, that’s ridiculous.
I checked out a detour into Indonesia (still East Borneo), but I’m having trouble deciding what would be amazing.
I read about Sangalaki + Kakaban (2 islands, 1 base) / Mahakam Delta - Kutai (orangutans and river) / Sungai Boh (Dayak Kayan) – jungle & culture.
But honestly, I’m struggling to finalize this itinerary.
If we venture that way, we’d head back to KK from Balikpapan.
For a 4-month stay in Egypt, I had ENORMOUS problems. The regulations are very bureaucratic and extremely nitpicky there. For a 4-month stay in the Philippines, I was wondering if the procedures are just as complicated? I’m bringing my cell phone with an eSIM. Should I choose a plan from Canada for use in the Philippines, or should I get a plan only once I arrive? After 30 days, do I renew with the Canadian provider I chose before leaving, or do I switch to a local company? Do I need to register my phone with the authorities in the Philippines? (That was the case in Egypt.) For the 3rd and 4th months, will it be just as simple—renewing with a Canadian or local provider—or should I expect problems?
Hello,
I’ll be in Malaysia with my wife, mainly in Langkawi and Penang for Christmas and New Year’s at the end of 2026.
If you’ve had the experience—and since I’ve read (though it’s not very clear) that these two islands get quite crowded during this period—would you recommend booking accommodation well in advance, or is it easy to find something on the spot?
Hotels or Airbnb?
Do you have any great tips for accommodation or any practical info to share?
We’ll be staying 5 to 7 days on each island.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Hi there. To make the most of Lake Toba, is it better to find accommodation on the lake’s shores (which one?) or on Samosir Island? Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
We’re heading to Vietnam as a family on July 8th for a little over 3 weeks (north and center). We’ve only booked the first 3 nights in Hanoi, and nothing else after that. We like to decide things on the spot and go with the flow, without rushing everywhere. But I’m still a bit unsure: when heading down to the center (Hue), is it better to book the overnight trains in advance? We don’t want to take any flights while we’re there—just use the overnight train for the long trips. But I’m worried we won’t get seats if we buy the tickets on the spot, say, 2 days before. What do the experts here think? And which website can we use to book the tickets? Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hi everyone!
I’m heading back to Thailand in July 2026 with a stopover in Cambodia to visit the Angkor site.
After Angkor, I’ve booked a stay on Ko Chang island. Does anyone know if there are direct transport options from Cambodia to Ko Chang without having to go back through Bangkok? That would be amazing!!
I think there are, but I’d need more details!!
I went to Thailand in February 2025 and don’t remember having to apply for a visa—is that still the case now? And for Cambodia too?
Thanks so much!!!

Hi,
After our trip to China, we want to spend a week in the Philippines for some beach time and snorkeling.
We're looking for the best spot to settle in—nice beaches, great marine life, and short transfer times.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Does anyone know of a private transfer or taxi company that organizes transfers from the Sukhothai area to Chiang Mai?
Our routes are Sukhothai-Lampang, Lampang-Chom Thong, and Chom Thong-Chiang Mai.
My searches on Google Maps, 12Go, and others haven’t turned up much...
For our Bangkok-Sukhothai trips, I use a company I’ve already tried, but they don’t have a fleet available from Sukhothai and have to go through third-party companies—which, understandably, take their commission. This nearly doubles the prices...
There are four of us, and we’re not traveling light, so a minibus isn’t an option. ;-)
Hello,
While traveling in Thailand, I’m looking for a Buddhist kumlai reed bracelet.
Does anyone know where I can find one?
In Bangkok, I visited a few temples but didn’t see any in the nearby shops.
If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them! Have a great day! :-)
My trip’s coming up, and I’m having a bit of trouble with three bus/minivan routes. Usually, I find everything at this time of year, but this time—yikes!
Sandakan → Sepilok:
No app for this one—you just hop on bus #14 at the local terminal (pay cash on board). But where do I catch it, and where’s the stop??
Sandakan → Semporna:
From what I’ve heard, it’s the Sida Express company (great name, right? 😄).
Can’t book online, but apparently, you *have* to because there’s only one bus at 8 AM.
Where do I board, and where does it drop me off?
Semporna → Tawau:
Found this via AI—is it legit?
No online booking, as far as I can tell.
Minivans leave from a stop in the Jalan Hospital area, near the Milimewa supermarket, supposedly????
And when you arrive, does it drop you at **Sabindo Square** in Tawau?????
Hi there,
we’ll be in Mai Chau in June and we’re thinking of heading to Sapa, but first spending a few days in Bac Ha to do some hiking and explore the area.
Is this a good idea for those who’ve been there?
How do you get there?
Thanks for your feedback.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hi there,
I’m planning an itinerary and would love some feedback on whether it’s doable and if the number of days per destination is enough—or too much. I was also debating whether to add an extra night on an island or spend an extra night in Kampot to visit Kep or Battambang.

March 24: Phnom Penh
March 25: Phnom Penh
March 26: Depart for Kampot
March 27: Kampot
March 28: Depart for Battambang
March 29: Battambang
March 30: Tonlé SAP to Siem Reap
March 31: Siem Reap
April 1: Siem Reap
April 2: Siem Reap
April 3: Siem Reap
April 4: Siem Reap
April 5: Departure
Hi there,
Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕...
So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them!
Comments welcome.
For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.
Hope you're all doing well! It's been a while since I last traveled, but I'm finally heading out again soon!
For those familiar with SOUTHEAST ASIA, I'm planning to leave in mid-June (with the trip ending at the latest in November), and I don’t have a precise idea of exact places or itineraries yet. The thing is, this period is usually the rainy season...
Any advice? I was thinking of Malaysia or Indonesia, like Sulawesi, for example (all countries and islands in Southeast Asia interest me except Bali).
Any recommendations? I’m doing my research online, but if anyone here has the time and knowledge, I’d love to hear from you.
My partner and I are planning a trip to Indonesia in September-October 2026. It’ll be our first time in Asia, and we’re thinking of hitting the classic spots in East Java and Bali, then wrapping up with a cruise around Komodo for some snorkeling/diving. Here’s a rough draft of our itinerary—I’m wondering if it’s doable.
20/09: Flight from Jakarta to Yogyakarta, arrive around noon, afternoon/evening and overnight in Yogyakarta.
21/09: Borobudur
22/09: Prambanan
23/09: Travel to Bromo (Cemoro Lawang)
24/09: Bromo
25/09: Kawa Ijen
26/09: Travel to Bali, overnight in Pemuteran

06/10: Komodo cruise
07/10: Komodo cruise, flight to Denpasar in the late afternoon/evening or overnight in Labuan Bajo.
08/10: Flight to Denpasar (if not taken the day before), afternoon in Jimbaran, overnight near Denpasar
09/10: 10:00 AM flight Denpasar - SIN, overnight in Singapore
10/10: Flight SIN-YQB
Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I booked our tickets with Saudia Airlines for a trip to Thailand this summer, from July 5th to August 3rd. Given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, we’re keeping a close eye on the news.
I was wondering if anyone here is in the same situation as us?
• Have you heard anything about possible mass cancellations or if the airline is still maintaining its routes to Asia?
• Are there any travelers who’ve recently returned who could tell us if air corridors have been changed (longer flight times)?
The idea is to know what to expect so we can prepare as best as possible. Thanks for your replies! !
