We explored Vietnam from north to south over a month, including Sapa, Ha Giang, Bai Tu Long Bay, Ninh Binh, Phong Nha, Hoi An, and the Mekong. Everything was well-organized, and Local Vietnam was always available. The homestays felt warm and personal—a perfect balance of comfort and authenticity. Highly recommended!

We traveled for 42 days across North Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia with Local Vietnam. Everything—from guides to drivers and accommodations—was top quality. The service was personal, responsive, and stress-free. We’re very grateful for such a smooth journey. Next time, we’ll book with Local Vietnam again without hesitation!

We just returned from a 3-week journey from south to north Vietnam. Linh helped us plan everything perfectly, and Tra supported us daily during the trip via WhatsApp. All transfers, pickups, and accommodations were on point. Even when flights changed, Local Vietnam adapted instantly. It was a smooth and unforgettable experience.

The 3-day tour to Ba Be Lake and Ban Gioc Waterfall was the highlight of our Vietnam trip. Peaceful nature, great local food, and excellent guiding by Djung and driver Qyen made it unforgettable. We especially loved Tiger Cave. Everything ran smoothly—five stars and a strong recommendation from us!

We just completed the Ha Giang Loop with Local Vietnam and loved every moment. Our guide Doan and the easy riders made us feel at ease, even in our 40s! The food, homestays, and group vibe were fantastic. Great communication, smooth transfers—everything was perfectly organized. Can’t recommend it enough!

Rachael

Our trip to Ho Chi Minh City was perfectly handled by Local Vietnam. From airport pickup to organizing tours and even retrieving a lost iPad—everything was smooth. The War Remnants Museum and Mekong Delta were unforgettable. Special thanks to Rowena for her excellent communication. We’d book with them again anytime!

We had a fantastic 12-day family trip through Vietnam with Local Vietnam. They helped shape our itinerary and adapted to last-minute flight changes. Communication before and during the trip was excellent. Hotels and guides were great, and everything felt personal and well-coordinated. Highly recommended for families looking for a reliable agency!

About us

How Local Vietnam began—and why we do what we do.

Founders Nhung (Vietnamese) and Marnick (Dutch) are both experienced travelers visited over 50 countries combined. We started Local Vietnam as an alternative to the classic travel agencies, to offer experiences with lots of contact with the locals, the culture and discovering beautiful unspoilt nature in a way we can reduce the pressure that tourism brings on the natural and social environment.
