Thousands of travelers have had to cancel tours to Thailand due to the uncertainties in that country. Nguyen Cong Hoan, Deputy Director of Hanoi Redtour, reported that six groups of travelers (140 travelers) who booked tours earlier this must cancel their plans. The travel firm is not accepting bookings for tours to Thailand at the present time.

Vietnamtourism in Hanoi has also canceled tours with a total of 200 travelers.

“Vietravel has halted its tours to Thailand. At first, we intended to stop organizing tours to April 18. However, with the escalating riots, we must cancel tours through the May holiday,” revealed Nguyen Minh Man, a senior executive of Vietravel.

Vietravel declined to reveal the number of cancelled tours, but the number must be big. The firm had nearly one thousand clients by this time last year.
