About AVT

A Warm Welcome from Our Founder

“As a lifelong traveler of over 20 years, I believe a journey is measured not by distance, but by the connections and memories created along the way. At AVT Travel, we do more than design tours—we invite you to experience Southeast Asia as we know it ourselves, with authenticity, care, and a true sense of belonging.

Whether you are seeking a peaceful heritage escape or a meaningful family adventure, our mission is clear: to craft high-quality, fully personalized journeys filled with thoughtful ‘wow’ moments—experiences that feel like a second home in Asia.

My team and I are dedicated to ensuring every journey reflects your story, your pace, and your dreams.

Welcome to the AVT family—where your Holiday of a Lifetime begins with a personal touch.”

Our Journeys

Our Journey

AVT Travel began with a passion for connection, culture, and discovery. In 2001, our founder, Mr. Thien Pham (Tim), started his career as an English teacher. His early passion for language and connection with people naturally evolved into the world of travel, leading him to become a tour guide in 2004.

By 2008, Tim expanded into tour operations, crafting private and group journeys across Vietnam, Indochina, and Thailand. Building on this expansion, in 2009, he began offering tailored travel experiences, especially for travelers from Canada and the United States.

In 2014, AVT Travel was officially established as a professional DMC and local tour operator based in Hanoi. Since then, we've grown through partnerships with global travel agencies and the launch of innovative travel experiences—including wellness retreats, adventure tours, and even a culinary project, Hungry Hanoi Restaurant.

Despite the challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic, our dedicated team continues to evolve. Today, we remain committed to designing personalized, meaningful holidays that celebrate the richness of Southeast Asia and leave lasting impressions on every traveler.
