Absolute Asia
 
Does anyone have any experience with this company?

They're very good, but also more expensive then other tour operators offering the same services for less money.

Contact: www.InnovAsian.com

Send them an email with the itinerary you are considering, get their price quote and see the difference in cost to you.

I know they're more expensive and wonder if what they offer is worth the difference. Have you traveled with InnovAsian?

We used Innovasian the first time we went to Thailand. Gregg was very helpful and individually kind to a complete novice. I'm sure he would be glad to answer any questions Innovasian.com.

I recommended InnovAsian because we did use them. I had previously looked at the offerings of Absolute Asia and just felt they were too expensive, when I had seen similiar itineraries from other operators. Working with InnovAsian we designed our own itinerary and found that Gress was perfect for support, answering questions, and we easily saved a third of the price.

... sorry the name is Gregg (not Gress) my typo!

I don't think the increase in price is worth it. They stay in the same hotels and their guides are the same. I met a group once in Vietnam at my hotel and their guide actually said that my guide had been his mentor! And I paid close to 50% less!
