WELCOME For many who travel to a foreign country there is always a concern, "how do I know if this company will do what they say they'll do?". Well there is nothing better then hearing it from the people who have traveled with us. We have also included their email so that you can ask them in person.

From:Eric Muehlmatt Sent:Wednesday, January 06, 2010 6:44 AM To: Nham/Green Trail Tours Cc: Michael Opinia Subject: Re: Eric Muehlmatt Reservation in or around Nha Trang Hi Nham, We are home. Back to snow and -5C temperatures. We are still recovering from our jet-lag also. We had a wonderful time in Vietnam. We love the country, the people, the culture. The itinerary was fantastic, and Ahn and David were fantastic. They were great at striking a balance between the scheduled activities/sites and what Christina and my desire to dive a little deeper into the land and culture. They and the drivers really went above and beyond. Once we came to grips with the Novotel's policy, and got ourselves up to White Sands, we felt much better about our tropical "down time". A high-rise hotel with a busy street separating us from the beach just wasn't what we had envisioned, and we should have spent some more time reviewing the itinerary with Marty before the trip. But once we saw the Douce Mekong, any lingering negativity about the Novotel quickly disappeared. WOW! What a fantastic boat, crew, experience. Thank you and Marty and David and the Le Cochinchine staff for this once in a lifetime experience. Over all we couldn't be more pleased with our adventure, and will certainly spread the word about Green Trail Tours and the magic of Vietnam to our friends and family. Happy New Year, Eric Muehlmatt & Christina Persson 32 Coaker Ave. Hooksett, NH 03106 (603) 289-6142 From: "Eric Muehlmatt"

From: Jördis Könnecke we just returned from a 3 weeks trip through china and india and it is high time to say THANK you for an excellent organisation of the last two tours in march and april. during my trip in china I got the message that our next group in jan 2010 is also definitly operating, more than 15 people have already booked. my tour leader Mr. sehgal also told me about the very good last guide for my two groups, so that i would like to request you to confirm mr. Chu forthe upcoming group. In the next Mr Sehgal will NOT come along, just a tour leader, with no experience in Vietnam and cambodia, so I need TOP CLASS guides in both countries to take care of them. Preferably Mr. Chu in Vietnam and Mr. dara in Cambodia Can u pls confirm the same. I will send you a first rooming list in the next few days, as soon as I have set up my desk with best regards Jördis Könnecke-Sehgal (Germany) From: ROBERT WESTMEYER Was anything missing from the program? No Hotel: Guide: Highlights of the Trip: The bike ride through the national park although it was a bit harder than I imagined on the dirt paths. Getting across the street in Saigon! The Rice Noodle Factory in Mekong Delta. Negative Aspects of Trip? None although on those bike rides you need to let tourists know there will be some muddy spots. You said you would get me a 61-62cm bike because I am 6 foot 4 inches tall; but it was a bit smaller than that and so the ride uphill was more difficult that I expected. Next time I'm checking the size of the bike before we leave on the tour!! Would you recommend your friends to visit Vietnam? Yes!! I'll use your services again when we tour Laos and Combodia in the coming years. Further comments: Green Trail Tours needs to provide the Flower Hotel with a much better map of the old quarter. We got lost a couple of times walking around and had to take a taxi!! Or better yet Green Trail Tours should provide the map when the tourist shows up and pays the money for the tours. I would have paid 35,000 Dong for a decent map and been happy about it! Great trip! From: Homan, Robin Date: 1/16/2009 11:42:57 PM To: 'Nham/Green Trail Tours' Subject: RE: Nham Greeen Trail Tours Nham, Sorry to be so long in responding to you. It has been very busy getting back to work after being gone for three weeks. We had a very good trip and were pleased for the most part. We do wish we could have gotten out into the country side more and spent less time on the road, but maybe on another trip. Our guide was wonderful and the food was very good. Thanks again for all your help. If we do come back we definitely want to come to Hanoi. Robin From: John & Pat from CTC Tour To: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

I have decided to continue with my current agent in Laos for that part of the tour but would like your company to support the Vietnam sector as per your quotation dated 1.10.08. We already have provisional bookings for the 2009 tour and our room requirement will be 3 double and 7 twin rooms. for the same support and meal plan as this year. If possible, we would like the same team, Ms Nham, Mr. Nam, Mr. Binh and Mr. Thanh. The dates are: arrive Hanoi Sunday 22 November – depart Tay Trang Thursday 3 December. Regarding the hotel in Hanoi. We liked the Hong Ngoc 5 but would there be more room for assembling bikes at the Thien Thai? At Tu Le, it will be necessary to book all of the rooms at both guesthouses as most rooms have double beds and there are only two twin bedded rooms and so we would like to provide single room occupancy. Everyone enjoyed the tour and the support given by your team was excellent. Please convey our thanks to Mr Thanh, Ms Nham, Mr Nam and Mr Binh for making the 2008 tour a very nice experience. Thank you once again for your services and we look forward to hearing from you. Regards John From: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Yes, we have arrived safely back home. Of course we will remember this trip, the thousands of motorbikes, crossing of the roads and all. Although there was a little hick-up at the beginning of the trip, the rest went on smoothly as planned. My daughter had to fly in to HCMC alone one day after us, as we overlooked her passport expiry date not within the six months. It was only discovered in the early morning before our flight to HCMC at Changi International Airport. We were lucky as Jetstar allowed the switch of the date for her and change of new passport was done at the Singapore Immigration on the very day itself. It was also an experience for her to settle all by herself without having parents around and flew alone the next morning. (She is 18 by the way). We were also worried when we did not see your tour rep upon arriving at the HCM airport. For once we thought we got cheated... However, your tour guide, Mr Ky, was excellent. He was very helpful in many ways. Patient man, humble, knowledgable and friendly. Before the Chu Chi Tunnel tour, we diverted him to the airport first to fetch my girl. The explanation given by Mr Ky on all the tours was very detailed. Lunch at Tandoor restaurant was great. The Mekong River tour was an unforgettable experience too. We were thrilled to be treated as "Prince & Princess" on the Cai Be Princess while cruising the river. The lunch was exclusive and unique, especially the Elephant's ear fish. Although I have tried Vietnamese spring rolls and beef noodles in Singapore, the Elephant's ear fish was a new experience for all of us! Shopping is always never enough. We went the Ben Tahn market 4 times but still could not finish buying souveniers for friends & families back home. We certainly had no regrets engaging your tour company for our land tour and will certainly recommend friends to you when they plan to visit Vietnam. We, also hope to visit other parts of Vietnam some other days and will think of you and Green Trail Tours. Appreciate your assistance. Thanks & regards, RUHAIDA AMIN, HUBBY & FAMILY Dear Ms Nham: Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. It has been rather busy here catching up on many things. Gene and I agree that the Vietnam trip we just completed with Green Trail Tours was one of the most rewarding and interesting experiences we have ever had. A great trip, one that we will talk about for years to come. We will strongly encourage anyone who is thinking of travelling in Vietnam to seriously consider Green Trail Tours. Please allow me a few comments about the experience. 1. Gene and I are good eaters, known to eat just about everything put in front of us. But, the amount of food served was more than we could handle. Especially at lunch when we were served seven or more separate dishes of delicious food only to be treated again with as much or more at dinner. The unfortunate result of this generosity was the waste of a considerable amount of wonderful food. Our suggestion is that lunch be a lighter meal with, say, three separate dishes and save the bigger meal for dinner time. 2. The guides were great, nice people who did all they could to provide for anything we wanted or needed. The only problem was with the guide in Sapa who was a very nice person and fun to be with as we enjoyed some exciting adventures, but who was difficult to understand and who clearly did not always understand us. Proficiency in English seems essential for a guide who is dealing with Americans not knowledgeable in Vietnamese. 3. Just a note on the evaluations: We think it would be better if the evaluations were mailed to your office rather than handed to the guide who is being evaluated. Perhaps your office could provide a stamped envelope.4. We think there should be guidelines for tipping. Every country treats tipping differently and knowing what is expected in Vietnam would be helpful. Thanks again for everything. Regards, Ralph Date: 11/2/2008 11:03:13 PM Subject: Re: Margaret & Alan Abbott in Vietnam Bird watching trip Hi Nham We had a great time in both Vietnam and Cambodia for which we would like to thank you very much. Your arrangements were first class. The main guides you arranged were excellent and could not be faulted in any way, they were very helpful and considerate. We would particularly like to thank David for the completely professional way he handled the itinerary changes we had to make in Da Lat (you must let me know if our changes incurred any additional expense). The local guides in Cat Tien and Cuc Phuong were extremely knowledgeable and did a fantastic job showing us their areas. The guide in Da Lat, despite being a very pleasant person, lacked experience and knowledge of wild life and I would suggest you do not use him again in this capacity - however it did not reduce our enjoyment. Once again thank you and your staff for a very memorable and happy time Margaret & Alan From:

Subject: Re: Special Trip along VietnamHi Nham Thank you for your email. Yes, Fran and I both agree that the whole holiday was even better than we'd expected and will certainly recommend Green Trail Tours to any friends who intend going to Vietnam. All the tour guides were excellent and made us feel very well looked after. Luckily we only had one day's rain and that was in Sapa, but we still went out walking with our guide 'Gom'. Sapa was just a perfect end to a wonderful holiday. Even the train trip was great. I certainly hope to come back again. Now, there is something you can help me with: I teach English here in China and I was most impressed with Gom's grasp of English, considering she hasn't had any formal training. She is keen to improve her knowledge of English, especially grammar, but access to books is a problem for her. I would love to send her some books from here, but they are written for the Chinese. Do you know of any good textbooks that are popular in Vietnam for learning English? I would be happy to pay for the cost of purchase and postage to her if you can help. If you don't know of any books, perhaps 'David' our guide in HoChiMinh could help as he has done a lot of language study. Only other thing - don't suppose the Hoi An Riverside Resort & Spa have found my shoes? That was quite amazing - I wore them while I was there - so know I had them out, but couldn't find them when I went to pack. They had to be in the room or else taken from it. Anyway, if they turn up I know you will contact me. Once again many thanks. No rush on the books for Gom, but I would like to help her, she is such a capable and sensible girl.
