RV Lotus Reviews
2 reviews of RV Lotus from past clients of Global Journeys
Great trip through Vietnam and Cambodia 2 Wonders of Vietnam and Cambodia Phil and Linda, WA, Australia, Oct 2025
Our first time adventure to Vietnam and Cambodia and our first time travelling with Travelmarvel. Was very impressed with Travelmarvel. Well organised and thoroughly enjoyable trip. Our TD, Mr Thoi, was brilliant. Very professional, nothing was too much trouble for him and always a simile on his face. The local guides were also good. Extremely knowledgeable read more and great sense's of humor. The accommodation throughout the tour was excellent. Pity we did not have a bit more time to enjoy the facilities at some of the hotel / resorts. The dining was excellent, particularly on the Mekong River cruise. Would have no issue to recommend travelling with Travelmarvel through Vietnam and Cambodia. Finally, again, great service from Tracey at GJ. Look forward to booking our next adventure with GJ.
Along the Mekong- Cambodia to Vietnam 3 Essential Vietnam and Cambodia Mandy and Peter, NSW, Australia, Sep 2025
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent rip along the Mekong. There were lots of opportunities to sitesee on set tours or to do what one wished. We love that flexibility, as after all it’s our trip to enjoy! The staff from TravelMarvel and onboard the boat were amazing to deal with, with nothing ever being a problem. And I won’t even talk about the food as read more there was so much choice of excellent quality and quantity. A wonderful trip for an older couple.
