Buffalo Bulletin - Jan/Feb Edition

Chuc Mung Nam Moi!
Happy Lunar New Year (Tet) from Buffalo Tours! We are excited to say goodbye to the Year of the Rat and to welcome the Year of the Buffalo, which also happens to fall on our 15th year anniversary.
The Buffalo crew and their families all joined together recently for our annual Tet celebration.
Amongst stiff competition, Tung, one of our favorite male staff members in Direct Sales, won the award for best performance – a solo rendition of Westlife classic, ‘When You Say Nothing at All’. Abba’s classic ‘Happy New Year’ was also a big hit, with everyone joining in whether they knew all the lyrics or not.
Congratulations also to Thu Hang from our Voluntourism department for winning ‘Buffalo of the Year’, for her passion, compassion, and dedication. Well done!

Launch of 2009 Brochure
Our 2009 brochure has officially been launched! Check out our fabulous new brochure online or email us at marketing@buffalotours.com for a print copy or Cd Rom.
We also have launched our first Spanish brochure! Either pick up a copy at Fitur 28 Jan – 2nd Feb (booth 6A04) or email sandrine.depeux@buffalotours.com

New Luxury Junk Perfect for Honeymooners!
Buffalo Tours is proud to introduce a new luxury junk to its portfolio – the ‘Princess’. A beautifully appointed one cabin boat that is perfect for couples looking for a romantic experience of Halong Bay. The best part about the Princess is that it leaves from its own private dock away from the main harbour, and cruises in a route where there are few other junks. It is private, quiet, and receiving rave reviews!
We recommend a two night cruise to allow time to fully unwind and relax.
Hot specials will be on offer all throughout the year, so email us at agents@buffalotours.comfor the best rate available!
