Rooted in Experience, Built on Connections.
Joy Degenhardt
Joy Degenhardt is the visionary behind Asiatique Voyages, a travel company built on authentic cultural connection, meaningful experiences, and personalized service. Born in Vietnam and raised in the United States, Joy brings a unique cross-cultural perspective to every journey she curates—blending local insight with a global sensibility.
Her work in Vietnam began in the early 1990s, when she returned to launch one of the country’s first international adoption and humanitarian programs. Through this work, she built deep relationships with local communities, government agencies, and cultural institutions—connections that now form the foundation of Asiatique Voyages.
Joy’s background spans international business development, expat support, and cultural consulting. She has guided individuals, families, and organizations through the complexities of living, working, and traveling in Vietnam, offering practical expertise in immigration, integration, and cross-cultural engagement.
With Asiatique Voyages, Joy creates experiences that go beyond traditional tourism. Her tailored itineraries invite travelers to explore Vietnam’s heritage, cuisine, landscapes, and people in a way that is immersive, respectful, and unforgettable. Whether you’re planning a luxury escape, cultural journey, or relocation adventure, Joy ensures every detail reflects the beauty, hospitality, and spirit of Vietnam.
