Huyen Nghiem

Traveling and connecting with local people is one of my favorite hobbies. I love exploring new places, discovering historical sites, meeting the locals, experiencing different cultures, and trying out delicious local cuisine. It's always a memorable experience for me.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"I specialize in organizing adventure tours, specifically biking and trekking tours in Indochina, as well as off-the-beaten-path programs that offer unique experiences."

How did you get involved in travel?

"After finishing my four-year degree in tourism at Hanoi National University, I started working as a tour operator. This job allowed me to improve my English skills and assist travelers with designing their trips to Vietnam.
I have experience working as a tour operator and in tourism marketing and sales. With my in-depth knowledge of the tourism industry, I am confident that I can provide complete satisfaction to our clients."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"I had an absolutely fantastic trip to the Mekong Delta, the second-largest rice basket of Vietnam, in September 2014. It was my first time there and I was accompanied by my colleagues. I really enjoyed exploring the lush fruit orchards in Vam Xang - Can Tho, cycling along small paths through the green coconut capital of Ben Tre, taking in the hustle and bustle of the Long Xuyen floating market in the morning, and trying out some of the delicious local dishes. The memories of my trip still bring a smile to my face."

Our travel agent arranged a private tour with our own guide and driver. Every detail was arranged and handled. The trip went extremely smoothly. During our trip there was a historic heatwave that made parts of the program challenging but they handled these challenges smoothly and modified time or small details to ensure our comfort but without compromising the value. We appreciated the warm, hospitality, friendliness, and knowledge that our team shared with us.

Our trip to Vietnam was amazing. The travel agents from Asia Aventura were great. Our trip was seamless. We were there for 14 days and visited Hanoi, Ninh Binh, Ha Long, Hoi An, Quy Nhon and Saigon. There was some overlap with the cooking classes and a trip to the coconut groves in Hoi An and Saigon which was a little disappointing, but it did not take away from the overall trip at all. We would definitely use Asia Aventura again for our next trip to Vietnam. Thank you!!

Had a very good experience with Kimkim connected my family with local travel agent Huyen in Hanoi Vietnam and the customized, private family tour that she helped us put together for us to make our way from Hanoi to Hoi An and Saigon. It was a packed itinerary but traveling between locations was very streamlined with her help and the guides she found for us in the various parts of the country we visited, and our day plans included many creative activities and visits to terrific restaurants we might never have stumbled on otherwise. Given the cultural and language difference having a plan with set meals that offered a wide selection of local delicacies for many of our lunches and dinner was great and we were happy with the mix of unstructured time and predetermined destinations. Vietnam is such a beautiful country and it was a huge privilege to spend time exploring and are grateful to the hospitality of Huyen and our travel guides Pham, Vo, and Vinh.

Always clean air-conditioned private cars with friendly drivers, guides, and water waiting for us. One of the highlights was the Saigon by Night street food tour. We spent 3 1/2 hours touring around and enjoying the local food, our guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. I would recommend this tour to everyone who visits. The rooftop pool at La Vela Saigon was beautiful day and night! If you are staying at, or even close to La Vela you MUST try the seafood buffet, it was incredible. Bamboo Village in MuiNe was fantastic. The staff were very helpful and attentive and the grounds were beautifully kept. At any time during the trip, if we had a question or even just wanted a restaurant suggestion, Huyen was quick to reply. Thanks again, we will be back next year to try the northern part of your beautiful country.

We had a lot of fun in Thailand.. It would be great if the guides/drivers there would have water and cold cloths. Palm and Nan both were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable guides. The Bhodi Serene was a very nice hotel in Chiang Mai. The Elephant Jungle Sanctuary was a highlight of the trip.

During our time in Bangkok, we had the opportunity to experience a dinner cruise along the Chao Phraya River. The dinner cruise was a memorable experience.

While on our way to the floating markets outside Bangkok, our tour made a stop at a place where we could see elephants and even ride them if we wanted. However, our daughter was uncomfortable with the idea of seeing animals perform tricks, so we decided to skip that part of the tour. Despite this, the conservation efforts and care for the animals at the sanctuary were commendable, and we appreciated the positive environment. It was a good experience overall, but we chose to opt-out of certain activities based on our values.

Gavin, Jerry and Han qickly became friends that where super knowledgeable and caring and patient with our group. Our guides where also generous in sharing their families stories which gave us an insight to Vietnam's past.
We visited the "mustn't miss" sites but also loved the street food tours and bicycle trips to see how rice paper, rice wine, farming, pottery making and other family run business. These everyday experiences made it for me.
