Peaceful Cycling - We went with our guide David on a private cycling trip through the villages in the delta. We were picked up from our hotel and dropped off near the night market (by our request). David expertly handled all our questions while we were peacefully cycling. We had a great time. 👍

Unexpected (and wonderful!) Rural Can Tho - My husband and I have been touring Vietnam for almost three weeks now and I can say with confidence that David's tour has been the best organised activity we have had!!! Incredible landscapes and connection with local people, unforgettable images and knowledgeable explanations by David on the way. We loved our tour (cycling) the first day, that we booked straight away the floating market one for the next day, totally worth it! Truly recommend this tours.

Biking at the riverside - We had a wonderful day with our guides Mariah and Trena. We explored the Mekongdelta by bike, which offered us the opportunity to see whole new places. We visited a local market, where I got the chance to deep-fry a banana myself. Later, when we visited a lotus farm, we snacked some fresh lotus seeds and learned a lot about the local plants, fruits and vegetables. We also got the chance to watch some farmers doing their work on the rice field. At one stop, where we enjoyed fresh coconut juice, we also got a short language lesson in Vietnamese by Mariah for free. All in all a wonderful, funny halfday bike trip with very friendly and nice people! Would definitely do it again.

Authentic experience. Love it! - This has been one of the best, most authentic tours I have ever done. Its one of those that truly impacts you and leaves you with the feeling that you actually saw something unique and off the beaten path. Yan was my guide. He is super friendly and knows the Mekong delta and its canals perfectly since he grew up in the area. He took my booking with just 1 hour notice, picked me up from my accommodation in Can Tho and took my on a bike tour around the countryside to see the fruit farms and rice fields in the delta. Along the way we stopped several times to see examples of the local way of life, say hi to curious locals and even learn about how to harvest rice. Yan is doing an amazing job offering an insight into people's actual daily lives, and is a good example of the Mekong generous and friendly character he told me about :) SUPER recommended!

Great way to see Village Life - The bicycle tour was sweet through the villages on the Mekong Delta. Hanna (Hung) was a great guide and so was Yen! We enjoyed seeing the life and dwellings along the river ways. Fun and education as well!
