Paul Safe, Managing Director
Paul fell in love with Asia the moment he stepped off the plane on his first visit in 1994. Intrigued by the culture, fascinated by the historic sights and addicted to the cuisine, Paul knew he wanted to share this with others.
His enthusiasm to help people make the most of their holiday, his love of quality "special" places to stay and his incredible organizational skills ensures travelers of a quick efficient service based on his immense personal knowledge. These attributes have helped give Active Asia its reputation as a leader in travel to Asia.
Phan Quang Phuoc, Managing Director - Active Asia Vietnam
Very occasionally a tour company finds someone very special to work with. For us that person was Phuoc. Always with a smile, his gentle but humorous personality has won so many hearts he has his own fan club. Phuoc and his team run our Saigon office and no task is ever too big or too ambitious.
He has helped design some very challenging special interest tours and has a range of reliable air-conditioned vehicles, drivers and guides who are amongst Vietnam's best. We are proud to have Phuoc as our Vietnam Manager.
