Using a travel agent of booking a travel package for visiting nearby countries

by xantylaol Online Now Jan 22, 2012 at 11:04 AM

Hi! I will visit Singapore in July and plan to spend some time there and participate in the Food Festival which I have heard so many nice things about. But I would also like to visit some of the nearby countries, such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodscha. I won't be able to visit all, but would like to have some kind of package deal for visiting some of the regions highlights. I will be travelling alone or maybe with one more person. Can any of you recommend a travel agent or a good place to buy packaged deals for travelling in the region? Regards Chris

    Hi, We recently came back from Vietnam recently. A freind recommended a travel agent in Vietnam which we used. By booking everything with them, we saved over 60% of the cost if we booked the same from here in Australia. They were super efficient and very helpful, even gave us a present when we arrived. The details are as follows.. TNK Travel Ho Chi Min City.....Email...vietnamtnktravel@hcm.vnn.vn The lady we dealed with was Lu Luv. After emailing her, we added her to Skype and all arrangements were very easy. would highly recommend this agent. If you have any further questions please message me. Hope this helps. Cheers

    There are plenty of regional tour agents, have a look at www.exotissimo.com/ www.gadventures.com/ www.intrepidtravel.com/ These are fairly large tour operators.

    And, in MY there is Reliance.. Though I think you can pick your locations, with a little bit of research, and DIY with AirAsia flights.. Especially since you might not enjoy the company offered by a package tour from Asia! ;-) BTW if you are travelling alone, you will have to pay single supplement for hotels, at least for bookings made from Malaysia..

    Thank you everybody for your tips! I now have the struggle of choosing between all the attractions :) If you or anybody else would care to tell me about your most treasured experiences or sights/areas of Asia - I would very much appreciate it! I like to enjoy every type of travelling theme varying my focus from time to time - such as nature, people, beaches, cultural sites, local food, hiking, animals, big cities, and more. Chris
