  • Cycling Mekong Delta in Vietnam 5 Days reviewer 1
    · October 26th, 2024
    This tour was not only a bike tour but a cultural experience that allowed us to interact with the local people. Our guide, Danh, had a thorough knowledge of the areas we visited and knew the history of his beautiful country. I recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see the beauty of the Mekong Delta and its people. Our driver, Thanh, impressively drove us throw crowded city and rural streets, all in a calm manner, and had refreshments ready for us at every break. I love biking all over again.

    It was a great experience to discover Vietnam via bike. Leo and Dang were really kind. Our guide Leo provided a lot of background information and adopted stops and breaks according to our needs. The bikes were good and everything worked out very well. The local food was delicious. They always found a vegetarian dish as well. Be aware that dinner is only included on 2 days. But since it is not too expensive to find something and it is also nice to the discover the surrounding of the hotel, it was ok. The hotels were really nice and above standard. The tour was not too exhausting. We extended the distance on the last day. Looking back we should have done this on the other days as well, to reduce the bus transfer times.

    The pre-tour communication and organisation of the website was very good. The tour itself with Vietnam by Bike was also a wonderful experience. Our guide, Loq, and driver Tuong, were dependable, good company and most importantly flexible and insightful regarding our capabilities and needs. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to go off the beaten track, is prepared to expend a bit of energy and to have a little adventure.

    Awesome , excellent , brilliant , unbelievable , great value , , incredible , bucket list , fantastic, supurb hotels , wonderful guide and support team, above and beyond , couldn't do enough- these are just some of the words and phrases that spring to mind when reflecting on our trip. This is much more than a bike ride - you get an insight into the culture , history and way of life of the people who live and work in and around the Mekong delta - and it is truly fascinating !! We were so lucky to have Leo as our guide - full of energy and humour and he really couldn’t do enough to make our trip any better . His knowledge

    We had an amazing time on this tour, and it more than beat our expectations. The support vehicle allowed us to avoid the "less than ideal" roads to cycle on and allowed us to spend our time enjoying the nicer more interesting routes. We rode through beautiful Rice fields and villages, along the river, through rural areas. There were lots of additional activities included such as the floating market and floating village, plus a few additional things we weren't expecting. Ngan/Mr Leo was an excellent guide, and was one of the best we have had on any tour. He was knowledgable, communicative, approachable and led the cycling at a pace that suited us well. He even invited us to his home and introudced us to his family for dinner. He is a great asset to the company, and we feel very fortunate to have had him as our guide. It is worth noting that this tour was advertised as being with e-bikes. However, standard mountain bikes were provided (Trek Marlin 5). This was not an issue for us, as the area is very flat, and we are used to cycling 50-60km a day. However, those who are relying on e-bikes should confirm that these will be provided. Additionally, although mountain bikes are appropriate for the rough and bumpy terrain found on parts of this tour, It might be worth the company replacing the mountain bike seats with more comfortable touring seats. Mountain bike seats are not designed to be sat on for 50km at a time, and even with the gel covers provided, they were painfully uncomfortable by the third day. The only critical feedback we would give is that the hotels are quite high end, and a budget accommodation choice would have been appreciated as a reduced cost option. Also, more importantly, we felt the bikes could do with receiving a little more maintenance, particularly given this is a 5 day tour. On one of the bikes we had, the brakes barely worked and had to be pulled very hard to slow down, and they made a very loud noise when applied. This is not really ideal for a 5 day tour, and could have been very dangerous. On the other one, the handlebar grips were perished and breaking away into rubber flakes and caused blisters on the hands and needed gloves to be worn (although it was too hot for them really). Overall the trip was one of the best trips we have taken part in and one of the best experiences we have had whilst travelling (over 80 countries). We wouldn't hesitate to reccommend it to anyone (and already have).
