Things to do in Dong Nai Province, Vietnam: The Best Tours

April 6, 2022 Hector Krause

Đồng Nai (Vietnamese: [ɗə̂wŋm naːj] ( listen)) is a province in the Southeast region of Vietnam, located east and northeast of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon). The largest city in Đồng Nai is Biên Hòa. Prior to Vietnamese colonization, the area was dominated by the Funan, Chenla, Khmer empire and subsequent influences until 1627. The area was known as Kâmpéâp Srâkatrey (កំពាប់ [កំពប់] ស្រកាត្រី) in Khmer.

This was the best thing I did on my trip to Vietnam! It was smooth runnings from start to finish. Our tourguide Phuc met us at our hostel a few minutes early but was more than happy to wait for us to finish our breakfast. He was polite and courteous throughout and spoke excellent English. We were guided through stunning vistas and met some lovely local farmers who seemed genuinely pleased to see us rather than seemingly like they were being watched. Phuc made sure he went at our pace and that we were kept topped up with water and food throughout. The price may seem high for Vietnam, but we can assure you it is well worth it. My partner and I were on our own for the tour which made it a bit more pricey but I'm sure it's good with others in the group as well. We aren't anything like professional cyclists, we just poodle about a bit on holidays and the pace and climate were perfect. We thought the heat might be too much but actually because you have the wind going past you the whole time, it's cooler than walking around in the heat. Phuc told us so much about what we were seeing but also left us to enjoy the scenery for much of the time as well. The homestay in the middle of the two days was superb! We even had a cooking lesson and got to eat the produce! Logistics are easily managed and smooth as a button. Please choose this tour - you won't regret it!

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.

If you love being a part of nature, and you are interested in the Wildlife conservation or an Eco-tourism, then Nam Cat Tien National Park is an absolutely must-see destination in Vietnam. This national park is located in three provinces (Southern Vietnam): Dong Nai, Lam Dong, and Binh Phuoc with 71.920ha wide. Nam Cat Tien National Park is approximately 150km from the North side of Saigon, a perfect tranquil forest to escape from the busy city, out loud, full of confusing activities to recharge your soul batteries. A half part of a forest cover is surrounded by Dong Nai river, so the climate is quite cool, and this old-growth forest still remains its pristine wildlife with murmuring streams and green vegetation regions; more than 1.400 species of animals and 1.610 species of plants. That’s why Nam Cat Tien National Park is recognized by UNESCO as the biosphere reserve zone of the world in 2001.

Inclusions: Breakfast, Lunch, Lunch, Breakfast, Private transportation, All Fees and Taxes, - Free pick-up and drop-off right at your place, - Experienced, friendly and super-informative English tour-guide

Last week, I and my husband took Cai Rang Floating Market 1 day tour with Zara. She is such a friendly , super- informative and helpful tour guide that helped us a lots. She explained about Mekong Delta and showed us the nice vibes along the ways we travelled. Before booking this tour, i considered much because i was afraid that we could not see much within 1 day but after the tour, we enjoyed it much. Save time, money and explore a lot. Highly recommend you to book this tour when you expect to expect explore Mekong Delta!!

Had an easy day excursion out to Monkey Island. We did it ourselves and it is a decent day out. Definitely take the boat out first to the camp and then walk back as it can get quite complicated to get boat tickets. It is quite a good spot to experience the mangroves and some of the Vietnamese culture as well as the Wildlife. Whilst the monkeys are interesting it is still worth keeping a distance especially with young children as they are wild animals.

We booked and paid for a week bike tour in Vietnam with this company. We even went to Vietnam but after arrival....covid took over and Vietnam closed many of its hotels, restaurants and public areas in many cities. Airports were restricting flights and our connection city did close it doors a few days after we left. We had to leave then or be stuck there. We contacted the tour operator (we were the only three on the tour) and the only response we received was "OMG, I will have to get back to you." Since then they have not replied to any emails we have sent. They have not even responded to say they are busy as many are in this wild world we live in just now. We were a group of 3 so not a big deal to reply to our email and let us know where we stand regarding refunds. No money was spent by them other than the time to book the hotels. Many of the hotels were cancelling at that point so cancelling them might not have been necessary. Does anyone know how to contact this company?

Thank you to our fabulous guide Nhu for a great day out. She spoke such good English and had a great sense of humour. Brilliant understanding of the tunnel system and careful promotion of a situation which resulted in many deaths all over. A lot of general Vietnamese information given to improve our local knowledge. Beat of luck for the future Nhu, you deserve to do well.

We had an AMAZING time traversing the waterfalls and rivers. Because of the current global situation our group of three received a tour of our own. That gave us time to move at our own pace and really get to know and enjoy our time with our guides. Jackie and Son are magnificent guys and so lovely to chat with. The repels are easy enough and while there’s a few “scary” sections it’s all in your head and completely safe. You go down 4 total repels and get a chance to slide down small falls and also do a high jump. Plus the park is beautiful. if you are interested in trying canyoning, you HAVE to use Vietaction tours.
