Alisa Liu organized a 3 week itinerary to China, Vietnam,Cambodia, and Thailand that was highly organized, efficient, accurate, and done cordially. All guides, vehicles, transfer timing, hotels, time allowances per City were perfect. Alisa is an excellent choice to coordinate your entire journey. Working with her was fast, convenient, and very professional. She has a great personality, funny, and very responsive. The cost of using Asia Highlights was economical. I would recommend Alisa for all your Asia travel need. We were 2 couples, traveling on 10 flights around the 4 countries without a hitch. She is the very very best….ask for her. More

The tour guides were all very knowledgeable about their country's culture and history and were very friendly, polite and professional. A special thank you to our guides Thanh (Hoi An) who was very personable, interesting and spoke English very well, Thomas (Ho Chi Minh City) who was so enthusiastic and caring and Chan (Siem Reap) who made our tour very special with stops at local places. He was also a very good photographer. All the guides were so patient and attentive to our needs. More
