Great time in Pù Luông Nature Reserve
Vietnam
|
Nov 19 - Nov 25, 2023
We just came back from a wonderful trip to Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. We had already booked some of the "must-dos" in Vietnam (like Hanoi, Hạ Long bay, etc.), but had a few extra days so I contacted Kimkim to solicit suggestions. Hien from Realistic Asia replied immediately and suggested to spend some time in Pu Luang and Ninh Binh which is less touristic then Sapa. She organized a fantastic trip including transportation, hotel, and tour guide.
Our time in the Pu Luong are has simply been wonderful! The hotel was great and we really enjoyed all activities. Ni is a fantastic guide. He is obviously very familiar with the area, is passionate about the nature and the people, and he is very easy to get along with. The 15km hike through the forest and indigenous villages was the highlight of our trip. We learned so much about the people and culture, all while enjoying breathtaking landscapes.
We are so grateful to Hien for recommending this tour to us😊
In addition, Hien checked in every day with us to make sure everything was ok. We could not have been in better hands, and I would recommend this wonderful agency to anyone.
Hotel Review
We stayed at this place for two nights and the hotel has been wonderful. The grounds and the surroundings are spectacular. The room was large with a comfortable bed, and the restaurant had excellent food for breakfast and dinner. In addition, they make very good margaritas ;) The best part of the stay though was the staff. Everybody went out of their way to make us feel welcome. The first evening we had the "Western" menu. However, we wanted something a bit more authentic, sso the manager went out of his way to make sure that the next day the chef would prepare a spectacular menu with local dishes for us. Also, when we had to leave at 4am to catch a flight from Hanoi, several staff members were already up to pick up the luggage from our room, make fresh hot coffee, and to hand us a breakfast packet to take with us. The staff is simply amazing and I would recommend the hotel to anyone. We sure would love to come back soon.
