TripADeal Reviews

All the guides were amazing such a beautiful place. Highlight of course all the animals. All transfers were seamless. Coaches fairly comfortable. Husband is tall so he found some coaches a little light for leg room. Overall an amazing holiday and great value for money.

Special thanks to first tour guide and driver in Hanoi - amazing people and extremely knowledgeable. Highlights were the locations and activities in North Vietnam where we spent the majority of time. Everything went almost too smoothly!

Just overall a fantastic experience with a small group tour of 19. We all got on well. Vietnam is a fantastic country to visit from north to south. Safe and friendly. The local guides were excellent for each section (Mack, Miss Beautiful and Lam).

Uniqueness of Antarctica. Knowledge and experience of the expedition staff onboard the “Seabourn Pursuit”. Three free days to explore Bueros Aires was excellent. Trip a Deal might explore the idea of lounge access for customers.

The Great Budda, Oigawa Railway, Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kinkaku-ji, Himiji Castle, Hiroshima Peace Park and Genbaku DomeKintaiko Bridge, Osaka Castle, Narai-juku and Tsumago-juku. Great scenery and very polite and helpful people. We found moving the cases from the bus to the hotel that wasn't directly at the hotel, tiring, however understand the limitations. Not keen on feeding the seagulls and the deer. We must compliment our tour guide, Sylvia, for her thoroughness and application to assist not only us on this tour, but all of the travellers. She went beyond our expectations.

It was an excellent trip of Northern Vietnam with a fantastic tour guide (Dat) and great bus driver to navigate the tricky mountain roads. Halong bay was a little dissapointing due to the number of boats and tourists in the area but we had a great time on the boat. Great people in our group and 18 was a perfect number, have made many new friends. China Southern airlines were great, food, ontime, and comfortable economy seats. Overall a very enjoyable trip which I would highly reccommend, also an extra free day in Hanoi at the end would have been good.

This trip was excellent. We visited all the major tourist spots we wanted to see which involved some early mornings and long drives but worth it. The accommodation was great and the meals provided were good too. The highlight was our guide Hassan - he really made the trip!

The tour guide was excellent; professional, organised, friendly and informative. Each day was well organised. The sites visited were interesting, the tour guide knew the best location to see the attraction, where to get good photos and gave us local tips to maximise our visit at each site. It was the right balance of organised activities and free time. The accommodation was standard for Japan but would not meet the expectations of some western visitors. They were well located to be able to get around.

My son and I enjoyed the trip. Our Tour Guide Fotini was great, I have mobility issues so walking tours were not possible but at no stage did I feel left out as she would make suggestions that worked for me. There was a good balance of free time to organised time. The whole experience from booking the trip to it's conclusion was so easy. I will be booking holidays through TripADeal again.

We got to see a lot in a short period. Some people might find it slightly hectic, but we enjoy trying to see as much as possible. One suggestion we would have would be regarding payment for optional tours. We found that we were able to pay for these via card, but we believed that we could only for these in cash yen. We could have taken out less cash, meaning we wouldn't have to carry as much over, and wouldn't lose as much on conversion rates.

Our tour guide was very good, super organised and always explained as much as she could. She organised things in line with the weather, told us the best places to eat and kept everything on the move. We loved Tokyo, the Maiko dinner show, Kyoto by the sea and the tour was great. We would love to go back to Japan.

Destination was amazing

Accommodation was great. We got to see northern lights a few nights which was amazing! Not enough time in some places such as Bergen where we arrived at night and then left next morning! Would have like to see glam railway in daylight not at night. Cruise was amazing - staff and food both excellent!

We loved spending time with our Grandchildren, daughter and son-in-law and making wonderful memories. We loved the Halong Bay Cruise.

Excellent holiday with an excellent guide and skillfull driver. Highlights were: Ha Giang; Dong Van; Cao Bang and the journey through those mountain areas. Lovely to see the Hmong village, local crafts and how the Vietnamese produce their food. Our food was served fresh every day and there was plenty of it. Perhaps too much. We enjoyed the Nguom Ngao cave, Ban Gioc waterfall, Hoa Lu and Tam Coc and of course Halong Bay. We took part in every activity and we are in our late 70s. Our hotels were very good especially the Sheraton at Ha Giang. The Muong Thanh Luxury Cao Bang Hotel was reasonably good considering its remote location in a developing country. Taking cash for all purchases is a must as most purchase points don't take card. There were ATMs even in the remote towns. There were only 17 people in our tour group and this helped us all connect with each other. Lots of good memories and photos. Thank you TripADeal

Loved the wildlife and the way Tripadeal went about showing us! The tour guide Dom was fantastic as were the group we travelled with. The Hilton stay to windup was cool too.

Ba Na Hills was great except didn't like the buffet lunch actually didn't any of buffet lunches, Ha Long Bay overnight on junk was excellent, location of our hotel in Saigon was brilliant some hotels no hot water warm at best. Our guides Power especially was a stand out very knowledgeable, organized and went out of his way to help, others we had small problems with communication. Very happy with tour no major issues.

Cambodia is an amazing country with a sad recent history .. This trip I really enjoyed .. great hotels and great guides ..Staying at The Eden Resort was the perfect relaxing end to this great holiday ..

Our trip was absolutely incredible. Everything about it was outstanding. Of particular mention was Kate, our tour guide in Ho Chi Min City. She was truely lovely and made our trip very memorable. We are so very excited to take another trip with your company. An excellent holiday with hundreds of fabulous memories. Thank you so very very much.

THE WHOLE TOUR WAS EXCELLENT AND VALUE FOR MONEY TOUR GUIDES AND DRIVERS WERE GREAT TOURS AND ACCOMMODATION GREAT CANT WAIT FOR OUR NEXT TRIP A DEAL HOLIDAY

The trip was really well organised. We were well informed in advance of all activities and times we needed to be ready. Our guide was amazing. He was patient and caring and had a fantastic sense of humour. His knowledge of 'all things Egypt' was fantastic. Everything we did and saw were highlights. A fantastic trip.

I'm only discussing Sebatana Private Reserve. Accommodation, staff, food Itinerary was wonderful at the Sebatana Lodge. Our drivers were also excellent. That is why I'm giving a 5 star. Pre-tour was another matter.

Everything was amazing

Loved the friendlines of people from both countries, all the places are wonderful especially loved Hoi An , Ho Chi Minh and Siem Reap. Our guides Dung (Hoi An) , Loi (Ho Chi Minh) and Phany (Siem Reap).

The guides were great, accomodation excellent everywhere, bus drivers very good and I was confident with everyone involved in making my holiday safe and enjoyable. Angkor Wat and Siem Reap was the highlight for me

Very happy with our tour. Our Guide Garven was amazing and very knowledgeable. He made the trip a lot of fun and nothing was ever too much trouble. The tour was very enjoyable and the hotels were of a good standard. Incredible scenery and experiences..

The whole itinerary is what attracted us this trip. Starting in the North of Vietnam - Hanoi and Halong Bay and then onto the middle at Hoi An (where we did a local cooking class and visited the Ban Na Hills which was wonderful) and then onto Saigon (Mekong Delta, the tunnels and lots of shopping). Then even the bus trip into Cambodia was an experience with the border crossing and various stops. Pnom Penh and Siem Reap were the suprise packets of the trip! The tour guides were excellent and were the selected hotels.

The guides were great and very informative in thier own areas, they told us where to shop and were very helpful at all times.

We had a party of 12 and ranged in age from 20 to mid 70’s, everyone enjoyed the trip.you learn a lot about the difference in cultures of the Cambodians and the Vietnamese, their ways of living, food and beliefs. There was a good balance of rest and tours whilst on the cruise.

Our guide, Dat, was absolutely outstanding. He was professional, respectful and knowledgeable, but blended this seamlessly with humour which ensured our group were engaged and connected. Within the natural constraints of the location, I’m not sure the tour can be easily improved without adding more days, which I don’t believe will necessarily improve the trip.

I loved the services it was very nice n smooth I will recommend to my family n friends soon I will book another trip

First time we have travelled with trip a deal and it was fantastic, not one thing that we can complain about. Our tour guy who called himself Vic was awesome, he answer any questions that anyone had and was so helpful everywhere we went. 10 out of 10 for Vic. There are too many places and things we saw that was amazing, and very hard to decide which was the best, it was all good. I suppose one of the many highlights was going to the villages especially the last village. In our opinion there is nothing to change about this trip. We will be travelling with trip a deal again and we would recommend trip a deal to anyone.

This holiday exceeded my expectations in so many ways. Excellent flights with Malaysian Airways, top class hotels, great tour guide and very safe bus driver. Entry to many great places included. Cannot fault it - such good value for the price paid. Recommending Trip A Deal and Vietnam to everyone. Thank you

The guide and bus driver were excellent. We had a great time and saw some wonderful areas of Vietnam.

We saw a great deal in a short time which was good . We had a terrific guide (Khaoula) & amazing drivers (Toshi-san & Bob-san) The optional tours were good value - we chose to go on all of them. Suggestion : the optional to Hiroshima should be confirmed prior to leaving Australia to allow seating together on the trip. Our group was spread over 3 carriages on the outward journey.

Japan is an amazing place, first of all I loved the tour director/guide Ben and our awesome bus driver Amanosun. The accomodation was for the most part very good. I personally liked Nagano Prefecture and Gifu Prefecture. A little less crowded and absolutely stunning scenery. The mountain view (Northern Alps) from our Nagano Hotel room, was incredible, my lovely wife got emotional at drawing back the curtain and viewing it for the first time. I also loved Fukuyama, the castle, the shops. It was a little less hectic than Osaka. Kobe at night was really enjoyable as well. Kyoto was brilliant but so overcrowded, it was difficult to appreciate the greatness before us. As a automotive lover the Toyota museum was amazing, but 1 hour and 30 minutes was too short a time to experience it. Everybody loved the Shinkansen experience. It was well organised and the guide kept us safe and on track. We also had a group of really nice people.

The most phenomenal group trip we have ever experienced. Everything went without a hitch from transfers to and from the airport, extraordinarily luxurious hotels, ace driver and informative, flexible, attentive guide who mafe the trip special.

The accommodation in all the locations were certainly above our expectations.. the resort in Kampot was great and the also the accom in Koh Rong island was fantastic… The tour guides were very knowledgeable, had very good English and very caring and considerate of all travellers. Consultative when needed and always kept the group informed. The tour itself had a variety of activities which was great and provided rest when neeeded All in all it was an amazing trip, one of the better TripADeal tours we’ve been on..

The tour was content rich and we loved the way in which our guide presented each and every venue and feature. We will certainly be back

We had an outstanding guide. If not for him, I doubt that the trip would have been quite so enjoyable.

This was a fabulous trip. The guide was excellent and our group gelled together well. The itinerary was full on with really no time for independent sightseeing, but the included activities were great. I especially loved the elephant safari and staying at Kandalama. The Maldives was a welcome break at the end of the trip, and was lovely, despite the weather making some of the included activities unavailable. Would have been good it the resort offered more activities that could be done during inclement weather.

Very well put together package and Sarah our tour guide was fabulous. Will be returning again in the not so distant future.

Well organised tour. Hotels were good. Most tour guides were good. Transportation was good. We did not have any problem during the tour. Thank you

Hiroshima and Miyajima was a highlight for me, and the Iwakuni cable car ride was an unexpected treat. Our visit to the Touken World museum was also noteworthy, for those who love history in particular. Good mix of old and new over the itinerary.

Sujee guide. Driver and assistant. Very happy with tour what we saw n expienced. Accommodation was good. Was beautiful country. And people n food

Our guide Sarah was a wealth of local knowledge, she made everything accessible.

The whole trip was a fabulous experience, seeing all the major monuments

I loved the staff, all the tours, how well it was run and we had a great group of people, best holiday *** I have sooooooooooooo many photos, but I am emailing from my work email and am unable to attached.

SAW ALL THE HIGHLIGHTS AS PROMISED ALL CONNECTIONS AND TRIPS WERE PERFECT AND TIMELY GUIDES WERE BRILLIANT HOTELS WERE MORE THAN COMFORTABLE INSTRUCTIONS ON ITERARRY WERE CLEAR AND CONCISE

Everything the tour the tour person !!!! The people the places we visited

We had the best time and experienced the best of Japan. Our tour guide was incredible and very informative. We loved the calmness, the culture, the food, the scenery, the shopping, the magic!!!

Ultimate Vietnam was awesome the trip went over & above my expectations every area was beautiful . I would highly recommend this tour

the trip was great, the flights and transitions from city to city were handled very well and everything flowed effortlessly, the guides were great and very knowledgeable, the choice of excursions were fantastic and the way you could just hook onto the ones you wanted was brilliant

Tour guide Else was fantastic and both our drivers were also terrific! Loved the boat rides, visiting the whirlpools, vine bridge, castles and temples. The trip certainly hit all the must see places in Southern Japan. I would have loved more free days to explore particularly in Beppu and Kumamoto.

Hotels were amazing, as we our guides Son, Minh, Lam, Bo and especially Rocky who went above and beyond to help a member of our group who lost her phone. Viernam and Cambodia were both amazing and Angkor Wat was the highlight.

We really think that this package was incredible value for money. Having said that, I feel that it was too condensed, for example we stayed in some lovely places, particularly in Sri Lanka, but we weren’t able to take advantage of the facilities when we were arriving after dark and leaving by 8am the next morning. I personally think that the same itinerary, but spread out with an extra day in India and an extra two nights in Sri Lanka would be much better. I also know that would increase the costs, but most people in our group agreed and would be willing to pay the extra money.

Good information spread across the days appropriately, with enough time to explore

Japan & Korea were amazing places to visit. Airport transfers in both countries worked very well. Hotels included as a part of TripaDeal were good quality and well located. Nice balance of guided tour time & free time during most of the trip. Well done TripaDeal. 5 stars to both the Japan & Korea guides. (Hiro & Lara)

Good highlight point of view and good organisation. Feel relax travel with you

Everything was amazing. Every place was outstanding. Our guide Hassan was an exceptional guide. His knowledge of Egypt and the places we visited was so extensive. He was clear and easy to understand an his passion shone through. I cannot believe that I was at the pyramids, climbed one a little and saw the sphinx and rode a camel and had a photo taken in front of the pyramids. Wow. visited the Great Egyptian Museum which was extensive and so much history. Aswan Nile cruise was great. Just to say that I sailed down the Nile is an experience. I think a highlight was Abu Simbel and the relocation was phenomenal. Valley of the Kings was also a highlight. Then the resort was a great way to relax and to say I have swam in the Red Sea is also a bucket list adventure. Wow, wow, wow. I didn’t like the early starts but they were worth it to get to our next adventure. The whole trip was truly remarkable.

Perfect. Got a little taste of everything. Our fourth Trippa in two years. Looking to book our next one in the coming days. Keep up the great deals please.

The places we saw were unbelievable the first was the GEM which is breathtaking from there the sites got only better. You can see it on TV but to see it real is unreal. The guide we had Hassan was a man with a passion for his country and its history and could really tall a story. And had a lot of fun with the group. I say again the we saw you have picked the best l think.

Tour guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and gave excellent tips on local customs and expectations of local people. Accommodation was great too.

We loved everything, accomodation, food and the animals. To see the animals in the wild was amazing. The history around the ww11 death march eye opening. The extension was worth it. All organised very well and would recommend to everyone.

I loved the whole trip! The tour guides were very knowledgeable and were easy to get along with. The itinerary was filled with the essentials of each city, however would have loved to have an extra day in Ho Chi Minh City. I was very lucky to have been with a great group of people and we got along well. This will be the first of many trip a deal tours!

Our Vietnam/Cambodia five star tour was awesome! The guides were fantastic, everything was so well organised and we stayed at beautiful luxurious hotels. We visited amazing places and ate beautiful food. Although the weather wasn’t the best at times (Central Vietnam) we still made the most of it and had a fantastic time. Our group of 18 got on so well and we ended up a very social group, sharing lots of meals and partying together at night. I’m sure we’ve made some lifetime friends. The trip was ‘full on’ with 8 am departures each day and fairly late return to our hotels sometimes. We chose to do most of the optional extra tours etc; but you could take some downtime if you needed to. Cambodia was a highlight. We really enjoyed our quieter days there. This such a lovely, friendly and safe place (Siem Reap that is). Highlights were many!!! Going on bamboo boats, cruising in Halong Bay, walking through the villages and eating at beautiful restaurants. The BBQ night up in the mountains was special and brought all of our group closer together. The steps up to our rooms (200+ of them) might night not be suitable for everyone though. Our guides, Andy (north VN), Luong (central VN), Mr Viet (south VN) and Mr Vong (Sien Reap) were terrific, although Mr Viet is new to TrioAdeal, and his English wasn’t as good - he needs a bit more experience. Highly recommend this trio to anyone.

All accommodation was excellent in quality and location. The activities were a must do....well organised and learnt so much of the countries and the people.

Very good value, nice hotels - the Arctic glass igloo was a truly amazing experience especially because we saw the Northern lights there. The trip was well organised and flowed smoothly between all the different methods of transport which we felt was a great variety of coaches, rail, ferry and ship. I think a bus tour of Helsinki should be included. Our guide Petra was wonderful, she gave lots of information and repeated it so that everyone heard, she has a great sense of humour, good leadership skills and patience. Highly recommend Petra. I would like to see a little more guidance on the clothing to take in the very cold areas we went to. The temperature was -20 and even though I had read to wear layers and 2 pairs of socks I needed to buy a better coat, gloves and merino wool socks. Thanks for the great organising, it was a wonderful trip, the experience of a lifetime.

Loved all aspects of the tour. The tour guides were great with excellent knowledge of the countries, the histories and all the attractions, events. The itinerary was very full and we covered a lot of the countries and attractions.

Everything was amazing the perfect weather

Good services and knowledgeable tour guides.

The tour was great, well organised and ran smoothly. Option to select a direct flight. Hotel in Ho Chin Minh City closer to the city centre and detailed maps of each city to find our way around. Tour guides were great, knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely go again thanks

The ship was lovely! The food and service were great. Next time I would break up the journey. It was a very long travel time. Air New Zealand were great.

The scenery the guides and the group

Loved it all tour guides very helpful tour high lights & extra tours all great accommodation good breakfasts great

Sth Korea was excellent and the tour guide Lara is exceptional. Japan was also very good however there is a lot of free time so we pre-prepared some great extra activities and sightseeing if you feel confident using the subways (can YouTube how). These are our best memories of the trip!! Otherwise there are optional add on activities offered in Japan not on the itinerary so you won’t be bored. Two amazingly beautiful countries and cultures, we can highly recommend visiting them in Autumn (early Nov). Thanks trip a deal!

The variety of activities was great, however some spots we didn't have enough time to really appreciate our surroundings - the Orangutans were the highlight for me.

New York has been on my bucket list for a long time. When this deal came up I jumped at it. I planned to spend my birthday with my daughter in New York. It was fantastic!!!!!! We saw all the sites I wanted to visit, no line ups to worry about. Our accommodation at the New Yorker was brilliant because it was so central to where we wanted to go. Penn Station a block away, Times Square, Bryant Park so close.

The trip was great and full of all the highlights. Our guide Jade and driver Mr Lee were excellent.

Highlights were Table Mountain in Cape town, Seeing Cape of Good Hope, Kruger National Park, Victoria Falls, Chobe National Park. Close up with Lions, Elephants Buffaloes Hippos, Crocodiles, etc in Chobe. Everything went very well. Couldn't fault any of it.

The hotels we stayed in were clean and comfortable. Breakfast in all hotels were substantial and a great way to start the day.

Our Highlights of Vietnam trip was phenomenal. From the moment we landed until the day we left we were spoilt with the spectacular sights, sounds, tastes and people of Vietnam! Our highlights were the Cu Chi tunnels, Ba Na Hills with the glorious Golden Bridge (despite it being a foggy day, the mist actually added to the experience and gave the hands a more glorious feel and look), Halong Bay in the junk Boat, the bamboo boat ride along the ‘Halong Bay of the Mountains’, Danang, Hanoi, and the fabulous Train Street!!!!! Our tour guides Nia Nguyen and Mia Dung were PHENOMENAL!

Understanding what Africa is really like - how vast, dry and sparsely vegetated. Seeing many of the African animals in the flesh and plenty of them. When a pride of lions came so close as they passed our vehicle in Chobe. Appreciating how friendly the African people are to visitors. Our leaders were exceptional. The catamaran trip in Swakopmund with entertaining sea life. The Bushman's camp and guided trip through the sand dunes at sunset. So many lovely highlights!

Our Holiday was perfectly organised, from Flights, Transfers to Motels. V our Tour Guide was brilliant, gave us plenty of local knowledge and went to the extra level to ensure our trip was memorable. Our Driver T was amazing navigating the traffic and winding roads. Would highly recommend this tour

The trip was generally well-paced, covering the main highlights of Taiwan. The free day at the end was appreciated after several hours of bus travel. Our guide “Porkchop” had good English, was well-informed and demonstrated great pride in his country. He was approachable and considerate of passengers’ needs. The hotels were very new, and located in desirable areas. We added the tour to a week in Hong Kong so organised our own flights which was no problem. Overall we considered the Trip a Deal tour to be excellent value. One recommendation is that communication amongst tour participants/guide could have been improved by utilising messaging apps such as WhatsApp to outline daily activities, sharing photos, ideas for free time and reinforcing meeting times/places.

A well organised itenary, The day to day was extremely well managed by our local guides. Shared the experiences with a great group of like minded travellers to enjoy the highs (& support the lows) of the entire travel experience. Our first Trip A Deal & couldn't be happier with the outcome.

That was my 1st tour holiday & I thoroughly enjoyed it. I will definitely be booking another to another country that I'm interestedin visiting. As a single woman in her 50's this tour exceeded all my expectations & not once did i feel that i was on my own. The tour guide Don did an outstanding job keeping us informed & showing us the sights & he was always available to give a hand or answer any questions. Majority of the accommodation was great beds & pillows were a bit hard so 2 nights was acceptable at some places.

The highlight of our trip was definitely seeing Mt. Fuji. While some of the additional tours felt a little rushed, they still gave us a nice taste of what Japan has to offer. We’ll definitely be coming back to explore more and fully appreciate the beauty of this country. A big thanks to our tour guide Yusuke, who went out of his way to make sure we didn’t miss any of the tour’s key highlights.

Our time there was quick but enjoyable - Our Guide Don was fantastic and made it a very easy trip as he was so organised. The bus drivers were very professional and we felt safe with their driving. Was not expecting so many people at the sites we visited but I suppose there are a lot of people in Japan. Hiroshima was definately worth it and a great add on. Would have like to seen some more countryside like Waterfalls or Lakes. All of the accommodation was great. This is our 3rd Trip a Deal and we are still very impressed and looking to do another next year. And to top it off the other people on our trip were lovely and we made quite a few new friends.

Our Tour guide Don was outstanding. Informative and very entertaining. I would definitely do another tripadeal.

The trip was amazing covering many attractive spots in China Transfers and transport was fantastic Special mention to tour guide King and Jack both have extensive knowledge and very helpful when asked about any recommendation to what to buy or eat

Guide was very good. , very efficient. I loved the sightseeing.

I loved all parts of my holiday..all the guides were outstanding and very helpful and informative.perhaps some more time at the Great Wall would be very helpful.i had a great experience at the Great Wall but more time would be nice.with my late flight to Melbourne my last day in Shanghai was a bonus with the maglev train and market visit. Overall excellent experience well presented and would recommend to anyone.. Thank you so very much

I loved everything about it. Seeing all the places, hearing all the stories and myths from the guides and the accommodation was excellent.

Amazing guide Daniel took us everywhere got to meet some great people highly recommend this trip it's amazing scenery breathtaking people wonderful and the whole trip so organised the only thing was our accommodation with all the steps very hard when you are older

Great balance of places we visited. The hotels where all clean and great breakfasts. Our tour guide Andre was the best. He knew all the places and the history. He was amazing handling all the different people and requests and looked after us 24 hours. Also the driver was excellent. The bus also was very comfortable. We cannot fault all aspects of our first TripADeal trip and are already planning our next. Thank you Michael and Margaret Smith

Loved meeting the friendly people of both Vietnam and Cambodia, highlights were sunrise at Ankor Wat and visit to the Genocide Museum and thought accomodation standard for cost of trip was outstanding.

The whole lot of it - the itinerary was well planned and executed in both continents - made possible through the excellent tour guides - Yusuf in Turkey and Hesham in Egypt. A true insight with inspiration into the ancient history of both countries, against the current cultural environment.

I enjoyed all of it
