same period of last year. Namely, until now, OSC Vietnam Travel has 400 tourists
for domestic tours and 100 for foreign tours.

the same period of last year and about 50 tourists to foreign tours. The

the West...
This year, VTTours Travel Agent opens
some destination concentrating in provinces, cities of the Middle, Highlands
