As a travel and tour operator based in Vietnam since 1994,  Griswald's ® has become the leader in genuine small group tours.  Our tailor made tours, travel, vacation & holiday packages to Vietnam for singles, couples, families and small groups provides a quality alternative for those who want a more personal experience from their time in Vietnam.

If you're looking for something that's a bit different, with more flexibility than the usual group tour & with no fixed departure dates, then we might be just what you're looking for. 

Choose the accommodation style you want, the various destinations in Vietnam that you prefer & for roughly the same cost as a group tour, Griswald's ® will tailor make a tour that's just right for you.

We've had great reviews in various publications around the world. In Australia, the UK, the USA, Canada, Singapore, Hong Kong etc. Publications like the Sydney Morning Herald, the New York Times, the Boston Globe & the Singapore Airlines in-flight magazine.

Our REAL Kangaroo Café in Ha Noi made it into the International cow 50 of the most amazing burger joints in the world list & our Ha Long Bay Tour has even been featured in 2 travel shows as well.

In Nov 2008 we were featured in the well known, UK based, Rough Guide to Far Eastern Adventures which features the very likeable, funny & popular Toby Amies A few years ago we were featured in a local Aussie travel show with a former home Handi Man show bloke called Great Train Adventures.

Toby & the Rough Guide crew were just great to work with.  Unlike some in the film industry, they were honest, decent, funny & were really kind to us, our staff & everyone we met along the way & we wish to thank them again most sincerely.

Vietnam has everything from it's remote mountain hill tribe areas to it's amazing 3000 Km beach.  Vietnam is ideal if you're looking for a safe, affordable, beautiful & unforgettable place to take yourself or your partner for your next vacation.

Viet Nam is especially Kid Friendly too, so Mum & Dad can enjoy a holiday while the kids enjoy the genuine care, attention & child safety that Vietnam is famous for.

Also, please have a gander at our Testimonials page where you'll find all kinds of nice comments from people who have travelled with us.  One of our all time favourites is from a great Aussie couple (Paul & Frances) who nearly didn't make it to Viet Nam at all.  We're very grateful for their very kind comments & please click here to see what they had to say about their trip with us.

These days with all self  promotion & often paid for but so called independent reviews (???) on the various travel forums  it's not easy to work out just who's who in the zoo !

Over the last 16 or so years we've had literally thousands of people choose us to go with for their trip to Vietnam. Time & again our customers & some for their 2nd & 3rd trip have said they chose us because they wanted to go with the tour operator & not just another ticket seller.  

Please take a look through our website and afterwards we think you'll agree,

We're not like everybody else !
