TESTIMONIALS

Please trust that, should we return to Asia, either with a group or with family, we will most certainly use Buffalo Tours. I am entirely confident that my course would not have been the success that it was without the assistance of Buffalo Tours! - Roanoke College -

The trip went exceedingly well. Every aspect of the service Buffalo Tours provided was first rate and professional. – Cambodia Community Development Projects –

Running the clinics will be my favourite memory from the trip, I enjoyed them so much because I could put my practical skills into use to assess the people and to see their faces light up knowing we were there to help them. - Community Health Care, Mai Chau -

The most amazing experience and trip of my life. I went on a nursing program with Phong Phung and Dan and they were so extremely helpful to us…They are more than just translators; they helped us understand the language and culture of Vietnam which helped us do health checks more specific to the villages we were in. The nursing program and experience would not have been even close to what it was if it wasn't for this wonderful funny caring supportive team! Cannot wait to work with this team again. - Community Health Project, Vietnam -

Thank you all for your dedication to service learning and for organizing such a meaningful experience and powerful workshop for all of us, so that we can also share and inspire others to take action. - Empower Action Workshop, Siem Reap -

This was a fantastic workshop. I came back to school energized and ready to get work done. - Professional Development Workshop, Siem Reap -

The extra activities were fantastic and such a surprise…the ox cart ride and temple visit, plus Phare circus, were highlights. - Community Needs Analysis, Chansar Village -

I actually expected a lot more classic classroom work and was really happy that everything was so hands on because we were in the village itself. - Empower Action Workshop, Siem Reap -
