Shree’s Thrillophilia Hanoi Trip Review: A Family Journey of Wonder and Warmth
When Shree Jain set off with Krishna, Vishakha and Pari for their long-awaited Vietnam adventure, the family carried with them equal measures of excitement and curiosity. They had chosen a plan that stretched from the bustling streets of Hanoi and Da Nang to the quieter charms of Phu Quoc, wanting both adventure and time to simply be together.
The first moments in Da Nang were softened by the tropical air and a smooth transfer arranged straight from the airport. Golden Line Danang Hotel welcomed them with a simplicity that felt comforting after a day of travel. The children, Shree and Pari, seemed immediately taken by the pace of the city and by evening the family found themselves gliding on a boat through the Coconut Jungle, lanterns lighting up Hoi An like a dream. It was a gentle start, a kind of whisper of what was yet to come, with soft ripples against the boat and hundreds of glowing lanterns reflected in the dark waters.
The next day carried more energy, as Ba Na Hills rose out of the mist with its grand Golden Bridge curving through the clouds. The cable car ride stretched endlessly, carrying them above green canopies and into an atmosphere that felt almost otherworldly. The family lingered on the bridge, taking photographs and laughing together, the hands of the giant stone structure holding them steady above the valley. At Sun World, Shree marvelled at the rides and the strange mix of fantasy and mountain air, while Pari rushed from one corner to another, eager to capture everything in her young eyes. It was a day that left them both tired and thrilled, their conversations continuing long into the evening over shared meals.
From Da Nang, the journey shifted to Phu Quoc, the island where their days would stretch out with new discoveries. On arrival, the hotel at Tahiti Central welcomed them for five nights, its closeness to the bustle of the Grand World providing easy access. The family explored the Teddy Bear Museum and took the gondola ride, laughing as they moved above shimmering water, their shadows falling on the waves below.
One of the most enchanting experiences came at VinPearl Safari and VinWonders. Here, they found themselves wandering through open spaces where animals roamed, and later inside the aquarium that seemed to transport them beneath the sea. The mermaid show was met with wide eyes from Pari, who clapped her hands in delight, while Krishna and Vishakha found quiet joy in simply watching the children’s faces light up.
A small hiccup came one morning when their driver was delayed, leaving the family briefly anxious about reaching the safari park in time. Yet the Thrillophilia team quickly smoothed everything out with a prompt solution, rescheduling the pick-up and making sure the family still had the full experience without missing a moment. It was one of those moments that reminded them how travel always carries surprises, but also how good support can turn inconvenience into nothing more than a passing pause.
Perhaps the most memorable day was the four-island tour. Speedboats skimmed across the waters, carrying them from one island to the next. The aquamarine shades of the sea shifted with the light, and the Aquatopia Water Park added another layer of laughter to the journey. Shree and Pari splashed through slides while Krishna and Vishakha found their own moments of calm under the shade, simply watching the day flow.
The Kiss of the Sea show added a touch of theatre to their adventure, blending light, music and movement in a way that left the family enchanted. Later, Rach Vem Beach and the famous Starfish Beach gave them quieter time to walk barefoot on sand and watch the red starfish in the shallow water. These places reminded them that travel is not only about grand structures or organised shows but also about standing quietly in nature’s presence.
Throughout the trip, food was a pleasant surprise. Though they had wondered whether they might struggle with meals, the options were varied and satisfying, making the journey easier and more enjoyable. The hotels were clean and welcoming, never giving them reason to worry, and the vehicles provided for transfers felt reliable, making the whole experience flow without stress.
For Shree, the youngest of the family, the journey was more than a holiday. It was a way to see their parents and sibling outside the routines of daily life, to laugh without distraction, to learn new cultures, and to carry memories that would last far beyond the trip itself. For Krishna and Vishakha, it was a chance to watch their children grow a little more confident and curious, shaped by landscapes that were both foreign and warm.
By the time the family prepared to leave on the last day, their suitcases were a little heavier with souvenirs, and their hearts heavier too with the reluctance of departure. The final transfer to Phu Quoc Airport felt quiet, as if each of them was still lost in the mosaic of memories they had gathered.
Looking back, the Jains spoke of their trip as a journey where everything had come together with thoughtfulness. From the reliable drivers to the clean stays, from the careful arrangements to the moments of quick problem-solving, they felt supported in ways that let them focus on joy. They were grateful to Thrillophilia for weaving the plan so seamlessly, making it budget-friendly without compromising on experience.
And so the Hanoi trip ended, but its stories lived on. In Shree’s eyes there was the glow of lanterns, in Pari’s laughter the sound of water slides, in Krishna and Vishakha’s memories the calm of beaches and the strength of family. Vietnam had been more than a destination. It had been a mirror that showed them who they were together, and a canvas where they painted days of wonder.
