We run every tour ourselves
A licensed tour operator in Hanoi, with our own guides and drivers, and hosts we know by name.
From ground handler to your host
SGO DMC started as a destination management company: the local team behind trips sold by travel companies overseas. We ran the ground work, from Korean famtrips on Cát Bà island to community trips in Mường Lát, a mountain district of Thanh Hóa.
Years of that work gave us what a good trip needs: drivers who know the mountain roads, guides from the regions they show, and families who are glad to host travellers in their homes.
Now you can book us directly. You deal with the team that runs your tour, you pay one company, and you can reach us at any hour while you travel.
