We have been in the tourism industry for more than 20 years
Over the past 23 years, our founder has studied, researched, and worked in the tourism industry. While this may not seem like an extremely long time, it is certainly substantial. Beyond academic knowledge, extensive real-world travel experiences across Vietnam have provided deep insights—from the early days when Vietnam welcomed only a few million inbound visitors to today, when international arrivals have surpassed 20 million annually.
Throughout this journey, we have witnessed the ups and downs of the tourism industry: companies emerging and closing, startups rising and striving to establish themselves. Through these experiences, we have accumulated solid expertise in operations, management, and travel services.
More than two decades of learning and working have also allowed us to build strong relationships—from small travel startups to multinational tourism corporations. These connections have laid a strong foundation for entrepreneurship, starting from technology-driven travel services offering basic tour programs to more advanced, research-based, and adventure travel experiences.
Tourism and technology have become increasingly interconnected through media and innovation. Many founders have introduced new travel models and leadership approaches in the tourism and service industries, creating inspiring and meaningful travel products. These developments have motivated us to begin a new, ambitious chapter.
Our mission is to connect cultures, traditions, and knowledge between developed and developing countries in Southeast Asia. Vietnam stands out as a destination rich in natural beauty, historical landmarks, and cultural heritage. Its long history serves as a treasure trove of human knowledge and valuable lessons passed down through generations.
Vietnam has endured and overcome countless challenges, rising alongside other great nations of the world. This proves that Vietnamese knowledge and culture are on par with any in the world. It is a meeting point of Eastern cultures and Western cultures.
Vietnamese people value peace, joy, and sharing. Vietnam is a friendly, safe, and culturally rich destination—an ideal place for those who love exploration and learning. It offers a unique perspective on Eastern philosophy and Vietnamese studies. While many powerful nations once sought to conquer this land, today Vietnam embraces openness, cooperation, and mutual growth—creating shared value, financial independence, and prosperity.
People create money but money does not create people. Cultural tourism and knowledge-based economies are enduring and timeless.
PHDtour was founded with the core mission of creating a value system centered on knowledge sharing, cultural exchange, travel experiences, and study opportunities in every journey. It is a platform where knowledgeable travelers, experienced professionals, and well-trained tour guides (in both tourism and foreign languages) can connect, exchange, and learn from one another.
To realize our ambition of cultural exchange, economic collaboration, and tourism diplomacy, PHDtour was established to connect creative tourism, educational travel, and AI technology in a new era.
