This is the second time that we use this agency to prepare our trips: the first is Laos and Cambodia and second is Burma. Ms. Huong Le was very responsive to the changes I made during the trip.
I confirm all opinions on the internet: kindness, thoughtfulness, high-quality guides, good quality for reasonable prices, etc. We spent 8 days in Vietnam and 10 days in Burma with Paradise Travel. 2 retired couples from France would like to thank Ms Huong Le and Paradise Travel for excellent customer services.

We used this agency to customize a tour to Myanmar and we are extremely satisfied with their services. For the preparation of this trip, we were able to choose the destinations backed by their wise advice. We have difficulties for travel (slight handicap) but everything has been implemented perfectly. Our very friendly guide, Khin Khin, was very attentive and took us to many scenic spots. The vehicles were comfortable and dinners (at our request) were tasty. We have never been disappointed with the program and tours as we could be flexible to change the schedule. Finally, we highly recommend this agency and we are sure that we will contact them for other trips to Southeast Asia. (We travel every year and this one is in our favorites).
We wanted a 10-day hiking and adventure tour in Myanmar to get to see more than the cities from a bus. This tour delivered on all promises. A couple of guides' language skills could have been a bit better but we managed to communicate just fine. Local guides and food cooked by chef on trek was a highlight!
