I’m very glad to tell a super interesting story about a very special guest of ours, our friend Juan. He has traveled all over the world, setting foot in more than 20 cities, but Vietnam left such a deep impression on him that he exclaimed, “Vietnam is one of the most amazing places I’ve ever been!” What made Juan fall in love with it so much?

He shared that it was the friendliness and warmth of the Vietnamese people. The innocent children who ran up to play with him and the bright smiles he received on the streets made him feel right at home. This Vietnam travel story is about connection as much as it is about sights. From the first message, we listened closely to what Juan wanted and how he liked to explore, so every moment could feel authentic and easy.

While chatting with Juan, we realized that what he needed wasn’t just a tour, but a true travel companion. So, My Viva Tour didn’t just create an itinerary; we also gave him the inside scoop on breathtaking Instagrammable spots and delicious, authentic local eateries in Hanoi. We planned each day so that the journey flowed—from the ancient streets of Hanoi to the majestic beauty of Ha Long Bay—without stress. This is personalized tour Vietnam style: flexible, friendly, and full of heart.

From First Hello to Real Friendship

Travel plans can shift, and this trip was no exception—with a few itinerary changes along the way. But patience and flexibility are key, so we adapted quickly and kept the fun rolling. Juan told us that thanks to the support from My Viva Tour, he never felt alone; it always felt like exploring with friends. That’s why he said, “Vietnam is one of the most amazing places I’ve ever been!” Organic moments like these are what keep Hanoi Train Street and its cozy cafés in travelers’ memories.

Capturing Hanoi & Ha Long Bay

We helped Juan map out great angles and times for photos—golden-hour strolls in the Old Quarter and wide-open views over Ha Long Bay. He even flew his drone to capture those incredible shots and share them on Instagram. Beyond the famous landmarks, it was the laughter, the street food stools, and the warm hellos that made the difference. Vietnam travel is about people first; the scenery simply completes the story.
