(Trang Nguyen - Co-founder)

Your Vietnam holiday, designed by local experts:
If you’re looking for someone who truly knows Vietnam inside and out, we are your people.
Vietnam is our homeland, and we know this beautiful destination better than anyone else. From iconic landmarks like Hanoi, Ha Long, Hue, Hoi An, and Ho Chi Minh City to lesser-known gems like Mai Chau and Ninh Binh, from the best trekking routes in Sapa to the most beautiful beaches in Nha Trang and Phu Quoc, we are here to guide you so you can make the most of your holiday.We understand that every traveler is unique, which is why we specialize in tailor-made holidays customized to your preferences.
For those who love history, we'll guide you to significant historical sites. Visit the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and learn about the man who led Vietnam’s campaign for independence from French colonial rule. Explore Hoa Lo Prison, ironically nicknamed the "Hanoi Hilton" by US prisoners of war (POWs) during the American War. Discover the DMZ (Demilitarized Zone), a significant area from the Vietnam War, with numerous historic sites and remnants. Explore the Cu Chi Tunnels, an intricate underground network used during the Vietnam War. Visit the Reunification Palace, where the Vietnam War ended on April 30, 1975, marked by a North Vietnamese Army tank breaking through its gates.
If you are a fan of Vietnamese food, we’ll ensure you taste some of our most beloved local dishes. Sit down with our guide in a small alley in Hanoi’s Old Quarter, where the air is filled with the mouth-watering aroma of BBQ fare. Enjoy Bun (fresh vermicelli noodles) dipped in a warm broth full of fragrant chargrilled meat, infused with fish sauce, chopped red chilies, garlic, and freshly ground black pepper. It's an explosion of flavors that will tantalize your taste buds, leaving you craving more.
How about experiencing a traditional Pho? Let us take you to a local Pho house where you can taste it firsthand. The restaurant may be modest, with just a few stainless steel or plastic tables and chairs, along with jars of pickled garlic, bamboo chopsticks, and Pho spoons. However, there's a large stockpot simmering up front, filling the air with the unmistakable aroma of cinnamon and star anise. Observe the chef, often the owner, bustling about, chopping, blanching, and preparing orders as they come in. "Chicken Pho or Beef Pho," the owner will ask you (usually, reputable Pho houses offer just these two choices), and before you realize it, a piping hot bowl of Pho will be served, casting its spell over you.
For those seeking adventure, our local guides can introduce you to some of the best hiking routes in northern Vietnam, where you won’t find another soul on your track. Trek among corn and rice paddies stretching as far as the eye can see. Encounter fresh streams running through bamboo forests. Chat with friendly local people and be introduced to various ethnic minority groups like the Red Dao and White Hmong.
If relaxation is your calling, we’ll include a few days at the tropical island of Phu Quoc or the coastal towns of Nha Trang or Mui Ne. Enjoy beach days on pristine sand and warm turquoise water, indulge in fresh seafood, explore fishing villages, and seek out sand dunes and high winds in Mui Ne, one of Asia’s top sites for kiteboarding.
The absolute best time to visit Vietnam is from December to April when the weather is pleasantly mild with almost no rain. If we’re being particular, December to January can be a bit chilly in northern Vietnam, while April can be quite warm (though that’s not an issue if you don’t mind the heat). This makes February and March the ideal time for travel. However, if you're considering traveling during these months, it’s advisable to book as soon as possible to avoid hotels and services being fully booked.

Rated as Excellent on Trustpilot

"In all my years of arranging privately guided vacations for my personal travels, there is no one who out does Trang Nguyen. She delivers nothing short of perfection! I discovered Fine Asian Escapes while researching an inbound agent to handle my long-held dream of touring Cambodia and Vietnam. My husband and I wanted a thorough visit of about 2 weeks to see the sites. Trang worked tirelessly to create a custom itinerary that met our every desire!"
Allison - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - October 2025

"When our original plan for an overnight cruise in Halong Bay was postponed because of Tropical Storm Matmo, she arranged a every enjoyable cooking class as an alternative, and the cruise was rearranged to fit into our busy itinerary. The guides were knowledgeable and fun to be with - and some were exceptional, especially Lan Hue at Hue and Seng Kompheak at Angkor Wat. In conclusion we had an excellent, thoroughly enjoyable and totally worry-free vacation thanks to Fine Asian Escapes. Unfortunately Trustpilot does not permit any rating above 5 stars, - but Fine Asian Escapes certainly deserves at least 7!"
Subroto - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - October 2025

"It’s easy to rate a service or company when everything goes smoothly. It’s all about meeting your expectations or not. Well, it was not my case! Unfortunately, I had a bit of a mishap during my trip (my fault, of course!). Consequently, I found myself hospitalized in a remote location of a foreign country, completely unfamiliar with the language and healthcare system. Despite these challenges, the support provided by the local guides, Ms. Trang and Fine Asian Escapes exceeded any expectations of a travel agent."
Alex - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - July 2025

"The hotels Trang chose were all perfect for us. Our guides in Vietnam, Spring, Lan, Fletcher and Chin were amazing. So easy to chat with and they shared their extensive local knowledge and gave us a real insight in history, cultural and family life. The same in Cambodia too- all our guides and drivers were helpful and kind and made us feel safe and looked after."
Siobhan - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - April 2025

"These have been the best and most well organised holidays I have been on. My daughter gave me Ms Trang Nguyen contact details from Fine Asian Escapes over 3 years ago to plan trips while she was working. We gave Fine Asian Escapes a list of things we would like to see. Ms Trang Nguyen did fantastic job organisation of all our bookings trip transport she was amazing to work with from our first email to checking on us throughout the journey, and until we arrived home safely."
Graham - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - March 2025

"When you search for travel agencies for SE Asia, there are literally hundreds to choose from. I feel like we hit the jackpot with Fine Asian Escapes. Ms Nga Nguyen was amazing to work with from our first email to checking on us throughout the journey, and until we arrived home safely. She was very helpful in putting together and customizing our itinerary for private tours of Cambodia and Vietnam. Communications were excellent. From the minute we landed in Cambodia up to our departure from Vietnam 17 days later, we were taken care of in an exceptional manner. "
Diane - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - March 2025

"Ms. Nguyen and her small company punches well above their weight. You will get personal service that is harder with bigger tour operators. Absolutely worth comparing and considering. You won't be disappointed."
Rajendra - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - February 2025

"Each guide was fluent in English, but more importantly, they were extremely knowledgeable and passionate about their cities. They also all had a good sense of humour which is so important when you are spending a lot of time together"
Don - travelled with us to Vietnam & Cambodia - Jan 2025

"I would highly recommend booking a holiday with Fine Asian Escapes. From the first initial email with Trang, asking her to put together a holiday for myself and my husband in Vietnam. Till the last message where Trang made sure we arrived safely back in Australia. Trang was in constant contact with us throughout our journey and always checking in most days to see if everything was going ok. Our amazing guides Loc, Maya, Tung and Lam with their local knowledge made our holiday so easy to enjoy."
