Our story

About us

How Local Vietnam began, and why we do what we do.

Founders Nhung (Vietnamese) and Marnick (Dutch) are experienced travelers who have visited more than 50 countries between them. We started Local Vietnam as an alternative to the classic travel agencies: trips with plenty of contact with local people and their culture, through beautiful unspoiled nature, while reducing the pressure tourism puts on nature and local communities.

One shared passion:
