“We have travelled a lot around the world, and have taken many tours over the years. They have, without exception, all been excellent. However, Leon and his Travel with Leon team just raised the bar for them all. He is that good. He is knowledgeable, personable, experienced and fluent in English. He answered our many questions about history in an interesting and impartial way . We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him on his "Off the Beaten Track" tour of Hanoi.”

“Travel with Leon is a great company. Our experience specialist (Leon) met us at the agreed time, and took us around the city to some of the most interesting sights. His knowledge about Viet Nam and Ha Noi was extensive, and it was a great way for us to start our visit to this great country. Would highly recommend!”

“Travel with Leon is the best tour company ever! Our guide (Leon Le) was very attentive to our family tour needs in every way, my parents are not easy to cope with, but Leon made our trip fun and memorable. One night, we left our souvenirs in Quan An Ngon and Leon went back there took our stuff and sent it to our hotel. I couldn't express how much I appreciate Leon's attentiveness as our new friend and tour guide. We were lucky to have Leon and I believe all the people who have been touring with Leon would feel the same.”
