Best travel agency!

I used the IDC Travel service for our trip to Vietnam, Laos and Thailand. I found no errors. There was always a friendly guide with a warm welcome to a new destination. The trip was long and we had an unforgettable experience. We will definitely use this travel agency for our next time. Thank you so much !

Excellent Vietnam/Cambodia Experience!

Our trip to Vietnam/Cambodia started in 2019 then the world shut down! We finally went on our bucket list trip in February 2023! Alex was instrumental in ensuring our trip was a 5 star experience! From the beginning of the planning to the end of our trip all details were documented and when we asked for a change during the trip Alex was quick to ensure the change was completed in a timely manner. Everything from the tour guides seeing so many wonderful sites in Hanoi, Halong Bay and Sapa (Vietnam) to many temples, Angkor Wat in Cambodia. WOW! is all I have to say we had such a great time with IDC Travel's organization. I would highly recommend booking a trip with IDC and I will again in the near future. Thank you!

Another Great Experience!

We booked with IDC Travel again after a great first experience organizing a multicity golf tour in Vietnam April 2018. This time Alex helped us organize transportation and tours for a multi country golf trip (Thailand and Singapore) when countries first opened up for quarantine free travel in SE Asia May 2022. This was not an easy task and he was able to organize everything seamlessly! Would definitely recommend him to anyone! Will be using them again in the future.

Services surpassed our expectations

View on TripAdvisor Reviewed by Quang Q B, February 1, 2023
Our group of 6 adults booked a private tour with IDC in February 2023 to visit North Vietnam and Phu Quoc Island. One thing that makes IDC different from other travel agencies is the prompt and courteous response from Alex and his staff. We always got a text or phone back within the next hours. Our requests for accommodation in Sapa, Yen Tu, and Hanoi were difficult, but IDC did it without a glitch. The arrangements for car, guide, driver, restaurant suggestions and domestic air travel were perfect and satisfied our demands. We had used several travel agencies in Vietnam in previous trips, but we could say that IDC surpasses our expectations. We can recommend IDC without hesitation.

Great fun for the family!

Thank you so much for this wonderful trip for our family to Vietnam last month. We have loved every stay at every location you have chosen for us. We enjoyed Halong and Hoi An so much. Thank you, Alex, he did a great job supporting us on the trip, even at odd hours. We highly recommend IDC Travel.
