We took 3-day private Mekong delta trip. The sites were quite remote, so lots of driving, but with beautiful landscapes on the way. The transportation was comfortable. Our tour guide was very polite and helpful. Accommodation 3-4* hotels, pretty new with spacious and clean rooms. The sightseeing - nothing spectacular, but fully met our expectations. It was interesting to see, how people live and work, what do they plant and grow etc. The floating houses, fish farms, rice paper production, walking in the forest or around villages was nice, although tons of plastic trash everywhere put a pinch of salt into the whole experience. Lots of boat trips in the Mekong river and surrounding canals. Everything well organized, well deserved 5.

For this reason the number of boats on the market fluctuates depending on harvesting seasons and market demand. Furthermore, modern wholesale markets are becoming more popular in Vietnam. This can result in decreasing numbers of boats being present on the markets.

I had a great trip to from Hanoi to Nihn Binh with Dung! He was very nice and we had great conversations together! We sailed down a river on a small boat to see the beautiful landscapes that surrounded me. I have never seen anything like this before! Dung was very nice and was sure to get the best pictures of me. We also climbed 500 stone steps to visit Mua Cave! The view from the top was breathtaking! Even though there were many steps, it was worth the views. I had an amazing trip and would book with Asianway Travel again. Stella, the travel consultant, helped me plan every aspect of my 10 day trip. You are the best! Thank you for an amazing adventure!

We spent a day cruising the Delta on small paddle boats in the canals and larger motorised wooden boats between the Islands. The river is so fertile that although rural it is densely populated. People live, trade, go to school and travel along the riverbanks. The Delta is called the "rice basket of Vietnam" as the surrounding land is farmed for rice, coconuts and vegetables

I almost never write reviews, but I am happy to recommend Mr. Biker. I've had the opportunity to do two day tours with Thai (Mr. Biker) and his crew, and will certainly do another in the future. Thai is a super-nice guy, and his tours are top-notch. He loves cycling, and employs English-speaking guides who also love cycling. His shop also sells and repairs bikes. When my bike broke down at the beginning of a long tour, he fixed me up and got me back on the road quickly.

I had a wonderful time doing the Night Food Tour. Kevin, my guide, took me to five different food places. At each restaurant, I was able to try their signature dishes. Delicious. I would not have known about these restaurants without the tour. And along the way, Kevin gave us many other city recommendations. Fabulous tour. Come hungry. Kevin, I am sorry for not reviewing the trip sooner due to a long travel list. Hope you are all good too these days. Be safe
