Leave a comment

Vietnam’s first luxury travel and tour operator (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) celebrates its 10-year anniversary in leading luxury tourism in Vietnam by receiving a prestigious travel award.

Hanoi, Vietnam, September 29, 2014 – In cooperation with the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT), the Vietnam Economic Times, together with its tourism and hospitality magazine, The Guide, willaward the stars of the travel and hotel industry in Vietnam at a glitteringceremony of The Guide Awards on the 20th September 2014at the Amiana Resort inNha Trang.

Luxury Travel is honored and grateful to be offered this distinction when once again it receives an award, the seventh since 2007, attesting to the fact that its teams maintain their high standards and always go above and beyond the expectations of their clients during their trip to Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar or Thailand.

This reward from The Guide is decided by its executives, after discussions between travel, hotel, restaurant and shopping experts, including representatives of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. It also takes into account social media (such as Trip Advisor reviews) to reflect feedback from the public as well as the experience of readers of The Guide who vote online or by post.

This voting process is really meaningful for a travel agency. The readers’ feedback is unbelievably important and is a key factor in helping the tourism sector create new products and work towards improving its standards of service. That is why being given an awardseven times in a row by The Guide is, in effect, being rewarded by the customers and people who experience our services, which makes this award even more valuable to us.

Since its creation 10 years ago, as the first Vietnamese specialist luxury tour operator to create luxury fully bespoke tours for boththe leisure and incentive markets, Luxury Travel is meticulous in providing the best experiences and service for each of its clients, whoare treated as VIPs deserving of the highest standards.

Luxury Travel promotes a style of travel that goes beyond the idea of the conventional sightseeing packages, focusing on immersing clients in the local culture and venturing out to lesser-known destinations. The key thing sophisticated travelers want today is personal service and the opportunity to have unique encounters with a destination’s culture, history and people – something they can’t Google.

“Our teams are very happy to see that their hard work and efforts are rewarded.I am proud of the whole luxers team – you know how to provide a “wow” service to our most sophisticated travelers. Luxury Travel Ltd wouldn’t be as successful today without you.”said Pham Ha, founder and CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.

Confirming its leading role in the tourism industry in Vietnam, Luxury Travel has just opened an office inNhaTrang to tap into the influx of high-end holidaymakers to NhaTrang andto launch the Emperor Cruises, the first luxury cruise operator offering five-star experiential travel on an all-inclusive basis complemented by butler service, in February 2015.

The Guide Award tops a successful year for Luxury Travel Ltd as earlier this year it was nominated as “Vietnam’s leading tour operator” for the most prestigious World Travel Awards 2014.

Vietnam’s first Luxury Tour Operator (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) has just announced a new half day tour to Co Loa Citadel, Saint Giong Temple and Thanh Chuong Palace from Hanoi.

Hanoi, Vietnam, December 30, 2012 — Vietnam’s first Luxury Tour Operator has just announced a new half day tour to Co Loa Citadel, Saint Giong Temple and Thanh Chuong Palace from Hanoi.

Luxury Travel Ltd. has served the luxury travel industry for many years, and their staff has acquired first-hand knowledge about the travel market in Vietnam. Their advisors have visited their recommended destinations, and have personally checked out the finest hotels, resorts, restaurants, unique optional tours designed for discriminating travelers.

At 8:30 am travelers will be picked up at their hotel in Hanoi and driven to Co Loa Citadel. Co Loa Citadel is a fortress in the Red River Delta, about 20 km north of Hanoi. The fortress is spiral-shaped, and it is composed of the outer walls and the citadel. Archaeologists revealed some fragments of Dong Son pottery and a large number of bronze objects. In Co Loa Citadel, there are also two remaining temples.

Travelers will then drive to Soc Son Temple, which was built around 980 and restored thirteen times, but still keeping its traditional architectural style. If travelers climb up to the pagoda on the top of the mountain, they can see the bronze Buddha statue, weighing 20 tons and standing 8.4 meters high. Also, on the side of pagoda, there is the Buddhism Institute.

Throughout the buildings there are many Buddha statues and ceramic, pottery and stone objects, which Thanh Chuong has been collecting for the last 30 years. (closed on Mondays)

“Home and studio to one of the most celebrated painters in Vietnam, Thanh Chuong Palace shines as an architectural gem showcasing traditional cultural objects, exquisite antiques and compelling structures. A living space as opposed to a museum, regardless of whether history and art are your prime interests, a visit here impresses both the novice and the expert.” said Pham Ha CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.

The tour price starts from US$56 per person for 2 persons (1.200.000 VND). Price includes private pick up and drop off services, all transportation, entrance fees, and the services of an English or French-speaking guide. This offer is valid until 30 December 2013.

Hung Nguyen, the company’s Mice department manager said Vietnam has something for everyone in cities like Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and the centre in areas such as Hue, Danang and Hoian.

“Luxury Travel is the first travel company in Vietnam specialising in luxury, leisure, and incentive holidays.

Vietnam’s First Luxury Tour and Travel Operator To Attend WTM London 2012

Leave a comment

Vietnam-based Luxury Travel (www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) will join the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) in October to promote luxury travel products at World Travel Market London 2012 (WTM) in the UK from November 5 to 8. Stand AS480

Hanoi, Vietnam, October 03, 2012 — Vietnam-based Luxury Travel will join the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) in October to promote luxury travel products at World Travel Market London 2012 (WTM) in the UK from November 5 to 8. Stand AS480

According to Pham Ha, founder of Luxury Travel, the UK has been a great market for the company, which has appealing products for Britons’ tastes and preferences.

“We target the right clients with personalized products and services.” said Ha.

He also noted that the company had increased the number of private small groups that it served, primarily with tailor-made holidays.

“British holidaymakers like custom and private tours, not big groups. The boom in demand suggests that holidaymakers are becoming increasingly canny and watching exchange rates as well as seeking out keenly-priced packages before deciding on their destination.” he said.

Britain’s tourists, according to Ha, picked Vietnam for their vacations for safety, affordable prices, authenticity, warm weather, and convenient direct flights.

Vietnam Airlines introduced service between Gatwick and Hanoi in December 2011, becoming the first direct flights to the country from Britain, and reducing the journey by several hours.

“With our marketing efforts and commitments, we will attract more British travelers who wish to experience Vietnam in style and luxury, and we’ll encourage them stay longer. Typical stays are 10 or 14 days, and in 5-star hotels.” he said.

Another reason for the sharp increase in Britons taking holidays in Vietnam is the recent opening of new holiday resorts in the Southeast Asian nation. The past few years have seen the completion of many luxurious resorts with names such as Hyatt Regency Danang Resort and Spa, Intercontinental Peninsula Danang Sun Spa and Six Senses Con Dao, entering the market and offering more choices for travelers.

“With our representative office in London for the UK and Ireland markets, we are targeting double digit growth in this market for 2013.” said Ha.

Luxury Travel is a long established Asian specialist in luxury privately guided and fully bespoke holidays in Vietnam and the Indochinese Peninsula. Vietnam now has world class hotels and resorts, beaches and cuisine, in addition to its natural beauty, rich history and traditional culture. The country receives 100,000 British tourists yearly, and the number of tourists increases an average of 68 percent annually.

Britons traveling to Vietnam are looking for a more authentic experience and seek to have a deeper understanding of the country’s culture, food, history and everyday life. While Thailand is geared more toward mass market tourism, Vietnam is a destination that is attractive to a more selective class of travelers.

Luxury Travel Ltd.’s booking record indicates that British travelers prefer Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, the former imperial capital Hue and Hoi An Ancient Town.

They also want to visit Halong Bay, the Mekong Delta and Sapa, Mui Ne, Con Dao and the Phu Quoc Islands, while many also combine Vietnam and Cambodia or Myanmar in one trip.

Vietnam’s First Luxury Tour Operator Joins VNAT to Promote High End Tour Products in Melbourne and Sydney, Australia

Leave a comment

Vietnam fast-growing high-end holiday destination for Aussies.

Hanoi, Vietnam, September 24, 2012 — Vietnam now has world class hotels and resorts, beaches and cuisine, in addition to its natural beauty, rich history and traditional culture. The country receives 300,000 Australian tourists yearly, and the number of tourists increases an average of 10% annually.

Australia is a very multicultural society and many Australians are familiar with Vietnamese food and culture. Australians travelling to Vietnam are looking for a more authentic experience and seek to have a deeper understanding of the country’s culture, food, history and everyday life.

While Thailand is geared more toward mass market tourism, Vietnam is a destination that is attractive to a more selective class of travelers. Vietnam is becoming more and more recognized as a safe and favored destination for high end Australian tourists, thanks to direct and convenient flights and improvements in the tourism infrastructure.

The new slogan of Vietnam tourism, “Timeless charm”, was created with an aim to attract travelers from Australia and elsewhere, who wish to experience the country’s defining characteristics: Thrills, nature, heritage, festival, pristine, enjoyment, scenery and essence.

Australia is in a strong financial position, with unemployment easing and low interest rates, plus a strong dollar. As long as the dollar remains near its current relative value, all overseas destinations remain attractive to Australian travelers.

“Australia is a great market for us and we have beautiful products for Australian tastes and preferences, and we target the right clients with personalized products and services. We have increased the number private small groups we serve, primarily with tailor made holidays. These groups are generally either from 25 to 35 years old or 40+, the latter group having more disposable income. Australian tourists choose Vietnam for their vacations for safety, affordable prices, authenticity and convenient direct flights. With our marketing efforts and commitments, we will attract more Australian travelers who wish to experience Vietnam in style and luxury, and encourage them stay longer. Typical stays are 10 or 14 days, and in 4 and 5 star hotels. With our new representative office in Australia for the Australian and New Zealand markets, we are targeting double digit growth in this market for 2013.” said Pham Ha, founder and CEO of Luxury Travel Ltd.

Australian market is among the top ten markets of Luxury Travel Ltd. The company serves 2% of total Australian tourist arrivals in Vietnam in 2011 and enjoys an increase of 20% in visitors annually. Luxury Travel Ltd’s booking record indicates that Australian travelers prefer Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi and Hoi An Ancient Town. They also want to visit Halong Bay, Cat Ba Island, the Mekong Delta and Sapa, while many also combine Vietnam and Cambodia in one trip.

“Except for AIME in Melbourne, there are no major travel trade shows in Australia, so we have joined VNAT and Vietnam Airlines in their road shows to promote our upscale products. Our representatives work hard to promote destinations, educate local travel agents, and generate public interest in Vietnam as a holiday destination. To help our travel agents and tour operators to sell our Vietnam luxury tours, I invite travel professionals to do a 10 day familiarization trip to Vietnam. Participants receive a certificate confirming their status as a ‘Luxury Travel Specialist’ after the trip,” said Pham Ha. “This is the perfect way to learn more about Vietnam and some of the most dynamic new products available for 2012 – 2013. This tour blends innovative touring with hotel inspections to give agents insight into the destinations and become true luxury travel advisors.”

Hanoi-based Luxury Travel Ltd. (http://www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) has announced joint efforts with the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism (VNAT) in order to promote luxury travel products in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia from 8 to 13 October, 2012. Luxury Travel Ltd. is a long established Asian specialist in luxury privately guided and fully bespoke holidays in Vietnam and the Indochinese Peninsula.
