Because of their low legal responsibility and they have almost no guarantee for their service or a center where the problems of customer complaints are solved.

Travel Agency is run by the Reputable Travel Companies you will get many more incentives and assurances.

Because of this type of Office, they have very high legal, and there are always people who support you 24/24 when you request.

They ensure that they will give you 100% refund if your tour is incorrect as what they offer and sell for you. Because they are run by reputable travel companies in Vietnam and have been in operation for a long time in the tourism industry.

Thus, they will not let a small mistake affect their credibility as well as their brand which they’ve built for many years.

What is the Booking Office

It also makes sense as an office that provides tour information for international visitors. But scale of Booking Office is smaller than Travel Agency.

Booking Office in Hanoi usually specializes in providing short-term tours and services such as bus ticket, train ticket, Booking Office also have laundry services, rental of motorcycles and bicycles.

They have no function, duty to provide and sell to customers all kinds of Vietnam Package Tours. Normally, they can only sell types of ticket in one particular local as Ninh Binh 1 Day Tour, 2 Days Tour, Halong Bay 1 Day, Halong Bay 2 Days 1 Night Tour, Sapa 2 Days 1 Night Tour.

They rely on programs available to give guests. They do not have the function of planning or organizing tours on request of customers .

This type is low legal. So I suggest that you should find reputable Booking Office to book tour for your trip.
