Explore Real Asia (ERA) is a destination management company (DMC) headquartered in Hanoi, Vietnam, founded by Hoang Thi Mai on December 19, 2006.[1] The company organizes tailor-made and group tours for international travelers visiting Vietnam and other Asian countries.

History and operations

The company was established in Hanoi in 2006.[1] In April 2015, the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism selected Explore Real Asia as one of 15 travel firms to represent Vietnam at the Global Exhibition on Services (GES) in New Delhi, India.[2] ERA subsequently participated in the ASEAN Tourism Forum (ATF) in 2019[3] and the ITB Berlin travel trade show in Germany in 2020.[4]

In 2019, American journalist Dominick A. Merle mentioned the agency in an article for the Times-Shamrock, recommending its services to travelers visiting Vietnam.[5] Domestically, company representatives have participated in destination planning initiatives, including contributions to the South Capital heritage tourism route (Hanoi–Thanh Oai–My Duc) recognized by the Vietnam National Authority of Tourism.[6] Representatives have also taken part in professional green tourism workshops, emphasizing the conservation of indigenous cultural values in community-based tourism development.[7]

Recognition

Explore Real Asia has been nominated for several World Travel Awards, including "Vietnam's Leading Destination Management Company" in 2021, 2022, and 2023,[8] and "Vietnam's Leading Tour Operator" in 2025 and 2026.[9] In 2024, the company was featured in the Asia & Oceania edition of Best In Travel Magazine.[10]
