Enttäuschende Organisation vom Veranstalter

Leider hat uns der Veranstalter kurz vorher abgesagt. Wir hatten uns sehr darauf gefreut und waren dann natürlich sehr enttäuscht. Schade, wenn die Organisation nicht klappt. Hat natürlich nichts mit der Veranstaltung an sich zu tun. Aber leider ist die Buchung nicht sicher.

We spent the day exploring the city and markets. Luc taught us how to barter 😊 making our market experience fun and affordable 😬 fun day in the city. He then helped me find a local high class tattoo parlour then finished our day at the puppet show. It's an interesting watch, very loud though.

An intriguing , colorful, authentic experience into Vietnamese folk tales.
