        Amazing trip to Laos
        We are two friends whip like to take culture photos . We had the most wonderful tailor made trip to Laos , from south to north in December 2024 for two weeks . The operator of this wonderful trip was Ron from trips of Asia . The trip was exactly what we asked for, everything we ask for was included: authentic villages, local markets , and the highlight of Laos which has beautiful scenery, very good hotels, flexible schedual and attentive guides. The trip included domestic flight and travel by the Chinese train . Everything was as planned and much more . Ron checked up on us through the trip to make sure everything is good and we are satisfied. This trip exceeded all expectations and we’ll definitely travel with “trips of Asia again Ariela & Ariella

        Very Good!
        The trip to Central Asia was an amazing interesting one. It was very well organized, full of knowledgeable information about the history, geography politics and culture of the area. From being a black hole for me before I went to that trip, I can definitely say now that lots of interesting aspects and the importance and beauty of the area we covered and the places we visited in, were revealed and opened for me through this beautiful trip.

        WOWWW
        A unique trip on the "Silk Roads" that combined the ancient Bukhara, Khiva, Tashkent and Samarkand with scenic trips of special beauty in Tajikistan (trip to the Seven Lakes) and Kyrgyzstan to the Hidden Lake and the country's landscapes with the beauty of the mountains.

        Corea in our mind / Mongolia in our heart
        This was the second time Christiane and myself went on a tour with Trip@Asia. We spend amazing 11 days in Corea and went on an even more amazing trip to Mongolia. In Corea Ron and team showed once more their flexibility in organising an outstanding individual tour across the country. The trip to Mongolia was somewhat out of this world - something we have never imagined. Nice and helpful people, magnificent sceneries , interesting villages, a perfect tour in Ulan Batar and on top of it the eagles festival in Ögli. Ron/Michi and all others. Thanks for this spectacular trip. Christiane and Johannes

        Great Vietnam tour
        Vietnam, of course, is breathtaking. The people, the views, the history, the sights, sounds and tastes. All of these were made accessible by an impeccably organized tour. Eveything was well thought out, operated on time, and with a special spice of being pleasant. Guides, drivers, hotels, timetables were all exemplary.

        Two amazing weeks in Vietnam
        We recently completed a fantastic two-week tour of Vietnam organized by Trip Asia, and we couldn't be more thrilled with the experience. Ron did an exceptional job tailoring the tour to fit our specific needs and interests. Our guides, Toni in the north and Hong in the south, were both incredibly knowledgeable and personable, making each part of the journey unforgettable. Every aspect of the tour was meticulously planned and executed. Highly recommend!

        Excellent experience
        Trip@Asia is highly recommended. We already had two trips with them in China and we were always very satisfied. They worked with us to design our ideal itinerary and booked our transportation and hotel arrangements. The hotels were of high standard. Their tour guides are fluent in English, friendly, and full of knowledge. Their drivers are always on time and drive safely, and in comfortable cars. We will surely book our next trip to Asia with them.

        An Amazing tour to Taiwan
        We've finished few days ago a comprehensive tour in Taiwan (13 days, 8 people) which was specially prepared for our group by Ron Oren, the owner & CEO of Trips@ Asia. Our requests were to be enriched with contents such as - museums, temples, culinary, etc. as well wild nature that should be involved with intensive walking. We returned back excited!! For every aspect of the tour - places that had been chosen, hotels, some of them were quite unique & all the others highest grade, AC bus that had followed us fm the 1st day till the end, and an excellent tourist guide that have opened us a window to any aspects of Taiwan, we've requested him - history, policy, education, economic, family relationships etc. and experiencing the wild nature have widen our breathing & our soul. We came to Taiwan without knowledge or expectations & came back as lovers of Taiwan. All those couldn't be achieved without an excellent planning & execution by Ron Oren & his team. It's a 10 marks organized tour. No doubt, we'll meet Ron's tours in the future & we recommend all our friends who're planning to visit South-Asia to get Trips@Asia service.

        A comprehensive visit in Taiwan
        We were a group of 8 (4 couples), travelling during 13 days in all Taiwan, a trip which was organized by Trips@Asia. Our satisfaction was high due to the high level of organizing and the local guide, Joe Huang, which speaks in fluent English. The accommodation was in very good hotels. So, if you plan a visit in Taiwan, I should recommend you to choose Trips@Asia, managed by Ron Oren in order to ensure the success of your visit. Shlomo Carmi ISRAEL

        Trip to the nine holy mountains in China
        We just came back from a three week trip to China‘s 9 holy mountains. What a trip - temples, mountains, cities, natural beauty and most of all nice people. Ron Oren and his team developed a individual program for my wife and myself that was exceptional in all regards. One of the best trips ever.

        Highly recommend
        My wife and I are retired from Israel. We and another couple of friends were interested in a two-week trip to Mongolia, Lake Baikal (Siberia) and Kazan (Russia). I got a recommendation on Trips@Asia, contacted Ron Oren, Founder & CEO of the company and asked for an offer for the trip. After a few days, I received a detailed offer for a trip that included flight schedules, day-to-day itineraries and accommodations. We liked the trip offer, we made a reservation and in early August we went on the trip. The trip was amazing and beyond all our expectations. At every airport we landed, a local guide with a car and driver was waiting for us, the accommodations were excellent, the local guides who were all qualified were knowledgeable and spoke good English and the excursions and sites we visited were perfect. Thanks to Ron for the amazing trip and I highly recommend anyone interested in a private trip to East Asian regions to book the trip with Trips@Asia. Following is Ron's company information and email: Ron Oren Founder & CEO ron.oren@tripsatasia.com www.tripsatasia.com
