Great Tour with motorbikes - We had a very good day on our trip today. We were picked up on time from the hotel (family of 2 adults, 2 children 11 and 9). The tour out of Saigon was very interesting. The mangrove forest and the history of the fighters there were also interesting. We had time to relax on the beach with a delicious drink. On the way back we had delicious noodles. Our guides were great. A great experience.

Very hot but fun scooter tour to Monkey Island - Chow & Ben took us to the Can Gio Island today and we had a great time with them! Chow told us lots of interesting information about the land and the way the soldiers fought in the vietnam war. He also helped to get back my friends hat which got stolen by the monkeys. It's the second tour we did with their company and we would recommend it to everyone!

No regrets! So much fun :) - We had a wonderful time with Chow and Ronald. They were so so friendly and incredibly insightful with so many history facts. They always checked in on how we were feeling, making sure we were always comfortable. Even when we were willing to push through a really hot portion of the day, they stopped to let us rest on hammocks and made sure we were feeling hydrated and rested enough before we continued the rest of the tour. Incredibly welcoming and warm all around. They even took so many photos for us!! Seriously, book this tour and ask for Chow and Ronald. You won’t regret it!

Great way to experience Monkey Island! - We went on the Can Gio Monkey Island tour with Chow and Ronald and had an excellent time! We had a smooth trip to the island by ferry and motorbike, and learned about the island’s history while seeing the monkeys. We also had some excellent food in the city. I highly recommend this tour!

Awesome trip to Monkey Island, definitely worth making! - We went to Monkey Island, and explored the nature reserve together with our tour guides, Jacky and Chow. They showed us both the preserved nature of the area, like the mangroves, monkeys and crocodiles, and told us a lot about the history of the place and how it came to be as it is today. We visited the Can Gio Warfare, which is a small exhibition on the recent history as Can Gio has been an important place during the war, and were invited to enjoy a glass of fresh sugarcane juice at the beach afterwards, as well as to enjoy the speciality of the local cuisine back in Ho Chi Minh City. All in all, it was a very relaxed and very enjoyable tour, where we learned a lot and experienced a true nature jewel. Possibly due to the early time of the trip, we were almost alone in the reserve of Monkey Island, which made for a great break from the city. The trip was thoroughly well organized and our guides went above and beyond to make sure we would have a great time, and we did! Thank you!

Tour to Can Gio monkey island - We decided to do a trip to Can Gio. From all tour operators, Saigon On Motorbike was the most interesting as we wanted to do something different than a bus trip. Everything was well organised. We had an amazing day with Chow and Jacky our guides. Our guides provided a lot of information and showed us great places like the Can Gio Warfare and we experienced a short walking trip in the mangrove forest. Before heading back to the city, we could relax at a bar next to the beach. Our trip ended with delicious food back in Ho-Chi-Minh-City. For us it was the first time on a motorbike. Despite the chaotic traffic in Ho-Chi-Minh-City we always feeled safe on the bikes of our guides. Thank you for the great day
