My family and i were enjoying this tour so much! Everything started & ended on time. Our Tour guide was Andy, he was very nice & funny. He took care of everyone of us even before the trip started. We appreciated that so much.

Amazing experience

Everything was wonderful: the sightseeings, the timing, the hotels, the funny & experienced coach driver, the great guide (Mirjam), the comfortable coach, the free times, the selected activities....

Tour guide hardly spoke any English, we couldn't understand anything

Tanya_G, Nov 2019

My husband and I along with another couple were looking forward to this trip. The places we saw were beautiful. BUT! Two days before our trip and after multiple requests, Viator finally sent us the voucher (you must have it as it needs to be presented to the tour guide at the beginning of the trip). In the voucher in a very small prints we saw the disclosure: GoEUgo has the rights to combine the customer of English and Vietnamese speaking tour in same bus if any group has fewer travelers. We wished it would be disclosed to us before we paid for the tour, which was non-refundable. But at that time we were not too concerned as the tour was supposed to be in English. Boy we were wrong not to be concerned! We were combined with none English speaking group, which would not be a problem. Except, our tour guide barely spoke any English. The accent was so thick that we couldn’t understand anything he was saying, he had a vocabulary of a 5 year old. Every time we had a free time we had to verify multiple times when we need to be back on the bus to make sure we understood him correctly and they wouldn’t leave without us. Plus, our tour guide was explaining everything in two languages: in English we couldn’t understand and Vietnamese. After we returned, we complained to Viator, after all Viator is the company we bought the tour from and they state they handpick and pre-vet all the tours... After multiple calls to Viator, they finally offered us 90.00 refund. Considering that we paid for this tour 727.76 you can understand our frustration and one star.

Response from Host, Jan 2020

Dear Tanya, Thank you for your review, your feedback is very much appreciated. We do have this disclosure before you book this tour mentioned under:" information that travelers need from us". We are doing our utmost best not to have combined tours, we will definitely review and reconsider not to combine tours in the future. Many thanks for your review and feedback. Best regards, Maggie

Tour guide had bad English, so we couldn’t understand the majority of the stuff he was saying...

Yelena-sept2019, Nov 2019

We liked other tours we bought on Viator, And even this tour could be good considering the landmarks and places we have visited... BUT! Since the majority of the people on the bus were Asian, the tour guide was explaining everything in two languages. We have not been told that this would be the case until literally a coupe of days before the trip. And even then it would be totally fine (and I want to add that we met so many nice people on the bus!) if tour guide would have at least “ok” English. Unfortunately our guide’s English was so bad, that those who only could speak English, had real trouble to understand anything. So at the end of the day, at least for our group it was more self-guided rather then guided tour. The issue is that those details haven’t been shared with us by Viator when we were purchasing the tour (which I should note is non-refundable)! We complained to Viator, but they said they are just a third party booking agency, and do not control the way each company, who offers their services on the Viator website, conducts their business and not responsible for updating their information on the Viator website... But, at the same time Viator states that they handpick and pre-vet all the tours... so we hope in the future Viator will do a better job to verify and provide those kind of details WHEN people deciding to purchase the tour.

Tour was very informative however we didn't realize it was an Asian tour group and only 3 English people amongst 43 people. We met some lovely people but the language issue was difficult.
