Footprint Vietnam Travel Celebrating 10 Years

In 1999, the dream began, when two students, from Hanoi Open University’s Faculty of Tourism, met and began to design a travel company that would show Vietnam to the World.

With passion, Son and Thanh worked with other companies as guides and tour operators, paying off student loans and saving money to start their own. Their experiences in the field allowed them to travel extensively to isolated destinations in Vietnam, and to truly see the roles tourism played there.

In the evenings on an old computer we designed the beginnings of Footprint Vietnam Travel. And in May 2001, with a few thousand dollars borrowed from friends, the company was established. It would be a company built on pride, honesty, passion and adventure.

Today, after 10 years, Footprint provides guests with safe, high-quality travel and adventure, with a healthy dose of fun. Footprint sees itself as a bridge between host and visitor. With a focusing on responsible travel, eco-adventure, and community based tourism, we strive to travel in a way that respects culture, protects our environment and supports the communities we visit. Footprint has also been instrumental in starting the Vietnam’s first Responsible Travel Club.

“Since 2003, we have chosen to design and operate personalized tours for independent travelers and private group tours who have the same passion for travel and want to learn about the World around them,” explains Thanh.

Footprint has built a reputation with thousands of travelers Worldwide and are proud to be highly recommended in many of the travel guides as a local tour operator offering unique adventures.
