Customer reviews and what they say

The most important thing we can do to improve our service is listen to what our customers have to say, which is why you can now read their comments unedited on our website.

Upon returning from Southeast Asia all our clients are sent a review form and here you can see what they are saying about their experience of travel to the region and of the service we offered both during the trip planning process and in the build-up to the trip.

Search the reviews, check the image gallery and see for yourself how our clients rate the InsideAsia experience.

Jon had a broad knowledge of both countries and helped make the trip fit well with our preferences while influencing our choices of where to stay and how to put together a trip with a good balance of touring and relaxation.

The hotels were generally excellent. It did appear on occasion that rooms allocated were in a noisier part of the hotel or did not have the best view/location. In a similar way the location of our room at the rear of the Ylang boat meant we had the constant noise of the generator.

We started off with Jess and she took a lot of time to get info on what we liked and what we wanted to do and they were both so quick to get back to us when we had queries. Always polite and informative

Accommodation

All the hotels were lovely but we wish we had had longer at the Tam Coc Garden and less in Hanoi. The Orchid Premium was excellent. All staff were friendly and helpful except a couple of waiting staff at the Hoi A Boutique and the receptionist who welcomed us there. Beds were all comfortable and the bed linen good quality. The towels at Pu Luong were a but thin and worn. Locations for all were fine

All in all I had a fabulous time. Robyn Duran was great to work with. She listened to what I had in mind and then offered suggestions to come up with the perfect tour. All arrangements throughout the tour went without a hitch. Even the time a flight was delayed, communication and connections harmed easily and without a hitch. I highly recommend Inside Asia and Robyn if you are planning a trip to Asia!

Next time I’d stick with the 4 or 5 star accommodations. The 3 star place was just fine but, after the Indochine Palace, it’s a big difference between 3 to 4 or 5 star places.

From the moment we called inside Asia their service was superb. Jon Fisher quickly understood what we wanted and put an itinerary together that hit the mark. We have now returned and everything worked on time and as described. We know what excellent service is and so does Jon and that’s what we got.

Thanks Jon as discussed earlier your service has been off the chart and you have been an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Only issue was the room on the river cruise air con would not go below 26 degress and it was the loudest air con we have experienced. So bad I had to put noise cancelling head phones on. I told the boat but nothing was done and could not be moved as boat full…better boats available imo having looked at others

This is the second time we've travelled with Inside Asia/Japan. The information and itinerary were excellent. The choice of accommodation and guides likewise. As well as covering the obvious places to visit they also helped us find more unusual and off the beaten track places. Thoroughly recommend travelling with them.
