Mekong Delta Bike Tour Reviews
- Mekong Delta Cycling Tour 4 days
This tour allowed us to explore many areas that are off the beaten track and provided a unique glimpse of the every day life of the people living in the Mekong Delta region. Our guide did an amazing job of showing us all kinds of interesting spots all the way.
- Excellent Cycling Mekong 3 Days
Leo was a great guide - knowledgeable, thoughtful and always fun to be with. The tour itself was an ideal blend of amazing sights and food at a physical level that even older and occasional riders can handle. Highly recommend!
- Cycle Mekong 3 days- E bike
We just wrapped up a 3 day biking tour with Vietnam Bicycle Travel and it was honestly one of the best family experiences we have had in Vietnam. Our guide Henry was incredible. He did not just lead the way, he looked after us like family. We have an 11 year old daughter who joined the ride and Henry was more protective of her than we were as parents. He made sure she rode right behind him throughout the trip, constantly checking in and keeping her safe. That gave us so much peace of mind and let us enjoy the journey without worry. Henry also introduced us to local foods and hidden spots we would never have found on our own. These were not touristy places, they were the kind of authentic dishes and experiences that make you feel like you are really part of the community. This tour was not just about cycling. It was about connection, care, and discovering the real Vietnam. We are so grateful to Henry and Vietnam Bicycle Travel for giving us memories we will treasure forever.
