VEGAN TOURS

A Google Verified Review My husband and I, along with 2 two relatives, took the 14-day Vietnam Tour in March 2026, and it was an amazing experience. Martin, owner of GoVeganTravel was an attentive and knowledgeable guide, who designed a great itinerary (Hanoi, Ha Long Bay, Hoi An, Ho Chi Minh City) and pulled it off seamlessly and with apparent ease (though there must have been a lot of behind-the-scenes work). Martin was consistently flexible in response to customer preferences, and he always made us feel well cared-for. Martin’s decades of experience living and travelling in Asia and his planning skills showed up in many ways, big and small (like showing us how to cross the street in Hanoi and where to find the best banh mi sandwiches in Saigon), and in his curation of quintessential experiences such as the water puppet show and tuk tuk rides in Hanoi, and the Cu Chi tunnels from Saigon. We chose this trip over other vegan options in part because of the boat and overnight tour of the Mekong Delta, and truly that is an iconic experience not to be missed. Another highlight was the cooking class in Hoi An with a local vegan chef and restauranteur, which included bike rides through the rice paddies, a visit to a local garden and market, an excellent chef instructor, and a huge array of dishes we got to cook and eat. The hotels were quite nice with amazing breakfast buffets, and amenities like a spa, pools and a rooftop deck, while also staying within our budget. The local guides and drivers procured by GVT in the various cities were professional, friendly and added an important dose of local knowledge and perspective. Vegan food options were plentiful and delicious, with a personal highlight being the young tofu with coconut sauce at the Home Stay in the Mekong. The trip included history, culture, food, crafts and comradery, and honestly was an incredible journey I would not have missed for the world, and the memories of which I continue to savor. I highly recommend GVT as a company and Martin as a guide.

A Google Verified Review We had a fantastic experience with Martin and Go Vegan Travel! The itinerary was interesting and well-paced, including a great variety of experiences. We visited historical sites and museums, took an amazing cooking class, had several boat trips in Ha Long Bay and Mekong Delta, rode bikes and ate delicious vegan meals. There was also ample free time to explore a bit on our own. Martin is very attentive to individual needs and made sure everything ran smoothly and was vegan friendly. The in-country guides he arranged were fabulous - informative, personable and well-organized. We highly recommend Go Vegan Travel!

A Google Verified Review My wife and I booked this trip specifically for the vegan focus in Thailand. It proved to be excellent and offered far better value for money than other tours we researched online. The itinerary really suited us, as there were no crazy early mornings or horribly long days.All scheduled activities were worthwhile and genuinely enhanced the overall experience. This trip was timed to coincide with the Thai Vegan Festival – wow, truly amazing. It meant the availability of quality vegan food was exceptional in every place we visited. All the activities were worthwhile. The cooking lesson in Chiang Mai provided some increedible insights tinto Thai cooking. And the day spent with the elephants at the Natural Park was quite profound. The food tour through Chinatown was a highlight, and the evening cocktails at the Bangkok sky bar offered truly superb views. A truly enjoyable/memorable experience all round. Hats off to Martin and his team.

A Google Verified Review I recently got home from GoVegan Travel’s two week vegan Thailand tour and I'm still on such a lovely high. Every hotel breakfast had plenty of genuinely good vegan choices. The included meals were tasty whether local or Western, and for all the other meals, night and day, Martin simply organized relaxed optional group meals at excellent vegan or vegan friendly restaurants. No one ever had to eat alone unless they wanted to, and it was just as easy to slip off and do your own thing. I really appreciated having that kind of flexibility. The hotels in Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Phuket were in wonderful spots and honestly much nicer than I expected. The days were planned so smoothly, and the activities were varied and thoughtfully chosen. The day with the rescued elephants at Elephant Nature Park, learning to cook vegan Thai food, and the totally unique sea cave canoe trip were real standouts for me. There was plenty more packed into every day without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Everything just ran beautifully, and it never felt like a “vegan-only” holiday, just a very well organized adventure that happened to be entirely plant based. I'd happily recommend GoVegan Travel to anyone considering it.

A Google Verified Review Martin is a great fun to travel with, a fantastic guide, organised, friendly, very good at smoothing any problems that naturally present on these kinds of trips. We learned an incredible amount about the countries we travelled through with the help of all the information Martin had at his fingertips, along with very wise tips about staying out of trouble and where to find the best food and drink. He was a strict time keeper, which made life easier when moving from place to place on every form of transport imaginable. We met his lovely family too and we'll always remember him fondly for his contribution to our enjoyment of one of our most memorable trips.

A Google Verified Review Martin and I became friends after he lead my tour to Laos. He's a professional, knowledgeable and a very well travelled man! Really loved my trip with him and still have such fond memories of that and him! Went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable and happy as well as thinking one step ahead to make it a hassle free experience.

A Google Verified Review We toured Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand with Martin. Martin was very professional and well organized so we could enjoy our travels stress free. But what stood out most in my mind (and the others too, I believe) is how much fun we had traveling with Martin. It seemed we were often doing out of the ordinary experiences under his leadership and local knowledge. My travels with Martin exceeded my expectations just about every day and as a whole. I would love to travel with Martin again.

  I was only on tour with Martin for a short time, but during that time he was great to travel with. His organisation skills were matched by his British sense of humour and his ability to empathise with everyone regardless of their nationality. It was an unforgettable trip. I can higly recommend Martin as a tour leader, he is a wonderful person and knows South East Asia very well.  

  Martin was very knowledgeable and fun about the tour. He kept things organized, connected with people, and steered everyone clear of any issues. Overall he was great and I certainly would go on another tour with him.  

  I would like to share with you my/our experience with Martin as our tour guide. He was very good at what he did. He was professional and new what and where to go making it a very relaxed tour for us because he took care of it all. I would highly recommend him as your tour guide.
