As a first time visitor to vietnam we could not have wished for a better tour guide! From the moment he picked us up from our hotel he was very happy and enthusiastic! Through the whole tour he gave us an in depth explanation of when and where we were going. He explained all of the cultural traditions, history and meanings as well as all of the things we tried and tasted. We really enjoyed our day trip with Trii and would highly recommend him to anyone!
