Undiscovered Vietnam Private Adventure

Our love affair with Asia began when MTS became the first company to organize a trek to Nepal back in 1969. Our curiosity led us to Bhutan—leading trips in 1974, six years before the country formally opened for tourism. We were also the first into Vietnam and Borneo—it's no wonder prestigious publications like The New York Times have noted our historic firsts.

Award-winning Trips. Trek to the roof of the world, Mount Everest; track Bengal tigers on an Indian safari; explore Sri Lanka’s diverse landscape of beaches, villages and forests; or journey to Bhutan’s sacred Chomolhari mountain—our pioneering adventures have been praised by Outside magazine & National Geographic Traveler.

We'll advise you how to train, review any medical conditions, supply equipment checklists, and help you sort out gear once you arrive.
