Start with the form

• The trip, or 'not sure'. If you are undecided, tell us what appeals: gardens, boats, cooking, quiet.
• Dates or a month. Weekends and the weeks before Tet fill first.
• Who is travelling. Adults, children and their ages, anyone who needs their own room.
• Your bathroom line. 'Private only', 'shared is fine' or 'advise me'.
• Heat. Whether you need air conditioning, especially from March to May.
• Food. Vegetarian, no fish sauce, allergies. Households cook to it with a day's notice.
• Mobility. Riverbank steps, small boats and narrow bridges are common; we can plan around them.
• Where you start. A hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, Can Tho or elsewhere.

• "Two adults, mid-January, An Binh for one night. Private bathroom please; air-con not needed. Starting from District 1."
• "Family of four, children 7 and 10, late June. Something with fishing and boats, two nights if possible. Shared bathroom is fine."
• "Three friends, February, four days, happy with simple rooms. One of us is vegetarian."

These are illustrations of the kind of detail that helps, not messages from real travellers.

1. We read your message and ask households about the room you need on your dates.
2. If anything is unclear we reply with questions first.
3. We send a quote: house, room, bathroom, photos, and each line priced.
4. You change what you like; each version is priced again in full.
5. When you confirm in writing, we confirm with the household and send payment instructions on the quote.
