I just came back from a 7D6N extended family tour to Hanoi, Ninh Binh and Halong organised with Lily's Travel. There were 11 of us with 2 relatives skipping Halong. All of us enjoyed ourselves very much. The Hanoi and Ninh Binh hotels and overnight Halong cruise (La Siesta Ma May, Lalita and Hermes Cruise) were excellent and so were the Hanoi food and city tours. In Ninh Binh, we went for a boat trip in Trang An, dropped by the Hoa Lu Ancient Capital and explored Hang Mua. The tour guides, transport and included meals were all excellent.I would like to thank Mrs Vani of Lily's Travel for the professionalism, hard work, sincerity and patience she had displayed in customising the trip to take into account different needs of 11 of us. She also went above and beyond her duties to help me organise a 70th birthday dinner for the eldest in the group. As I could not communicate in Vietnamese, she sourced a few choices for me and liaised with the selected restaurant on the menu and price with adjustments along the way. The dinner was a great success! The ambience and the food quality and presentation were excellent. Most importantly, the birthday gal was very, very happy! Thank you so much, Mrs Vani!I would also like to express my sincere appreciation to the operations team, namely Lucy, Alexa and Sandie. They ensured the itinerary and any requested changes along the way were executed well, with timely communications with me on meeting times, vehicle registration numbers and the name and contact information of the drivers and tour guides, etc. Together with Mrs Vani, they were most patient, warm helpful and remained so throughout our 7D trip even after my abortive attempt at the 11th hour to change the itinerary to account for rain forecasts. Fortunately for us, the weather was very "cooperative" throughout - rained only when we were indoors and cool weather with only a passing drizzle when we were outdoors.Overall, I would highly recommend Lily's Travel for the staff's professionalism, dedication and warmth, especially if one is thinking of a multi-day trip for a group in Vietnam. I cannot thank Mrs Vani, Lucy, Alexa and Sandie enough.
