Why book with us

A guide who
plays too

Most Vietnam tours are sold by an agency and handed to whoever is free that week. This one isn't.

Eight people. That's the ceiling.

Not "small group" as a marketing word. Eight. You will learn everyone's name on day one, and you'll still be playing with them at home a year later.

We play before the heat

Courts at 6:30 or 7am, off by 9:30. Vietnam at midday is not a place to play a sport. That's what the long lunch and the afternoon are for.

Nobody sits out

2.0 or 4.5, we split the sessions so the games stay close. If you learned last month, you play. If you're chasing 5.0, we'll find you someone.

Zero shopping stops

No jade factory, no silk showroom, no commission detours. Ten years in this industry taught us exactly what travellers hate. We cut all of it.

How booking works

Three steps,
one person

You talk to the same person from the first message to the airport drop-off.

STEP 01

Send a message

WhatsApp or email, whichever you prefer. Tell us the tour, roughly when, how many of you, and your level. Reply usually within a few hours — we're GMT+7.

STEP 02

We send the day plan

A full itinerary with hotels named, courts named, and the price broken down. Ask for changes. Most people do, and that's the point of a small group.

STEP 03

Confirm with a deposit

30% holds your place, the rest on arrival. Free cancellation up to 30 days out. Then all you do is book a flight and pack a paddle — or don't, we have those.

when

Fill this in and send it straight to WhatsApp or email — it fills the message for you. No account, no newsletter, no automated reply.

Both buttons open your own WhatsApp or mail app with the message already written. Nothing is stored on this site. We're in Vietnam (GMT+7) and usually reply the same day.

Before you ask

The questions
everyone asks

Do I need to bring a paddle?

No. We keep loaner paddles in every common weight and grip size, and balls are on us. That said, most people bring their own — it's the one thing you'll miss on day three. Either way works.

I've only played a few times. Will I hold everyone up?

No, and this is the question we get most. We split sessions by level so games stay competitive on both courts, and there's coaching every morning for anyone who wants it. We've had people book this trip having never held a paddle. They come back the next year at 3.0.

How hot is it, really?

Hot enough that we don't play after 10am. That's why every session is early and every afternoon is free. October to April is the comfortable window nationwide; the central coast is best March to August. Tell us your dates and we'll be honest about what you're walking into.

Do I need a visa?

Most passports need a Vietnam e-visa, which you apply for online yourself — it's straightforward and takes a few days. A handful of countries get a visa exemption. We'll tell you exactly which applies to your passport before you book anything.

What are the courts actually like?

Better than you'd expect. Vietnam has picked up pickleball fast, and the clubs in Hanoi, Da Nang and Saigon are proper dedicated indoor and outdoor facilities with real nets and real lines. We only use courts we've played on ourselves.

Can you build a trip that isn't on this page?

Yes, and roughly half of our groups do. Sapa, Phu Quoc, Da Lat, Ninh Binh — if there's a court within reach, we can build around it. Four people is enough to make a private tour work.

What if I need to cancel?

Free cancellation and full deposit refund up to 30 days before departure. Inside 30 days we'll do what we can depending on what's already been paid to hotels and cruises. We'll be upfront about it rather than hiding behind a policy page.

Is the trip suitable for a non-playing partner?

Very. Play is roughly three hours a morning; the rest of the trip is Vietnam. Non-playing partners pay the same, do everything except the sessions, and usually spend those mornings at the beach or in a coffee shop. Several have ended up playing by day four.

Bring the paddle. We'll bring Vietnam.

Eight seats a tour. Message us and we'll tell you honestly which trip fits you — even if it's none of them.
