Abbiamo prenotato il tour da fare soli. Ci sono venuti a prendere in Hotel a Saigon e da li ci siamo affidati in buone mani. Mr Chao la nostra guida è stato eccezionale, competente lungo i tragitti in macchina ci ha fatto un ripasso di storia del Vietnam che serviva proprio. Veramente lo ringraziamo tanto perchè ci ha fatto passare tre giorni veramente indimenticabili. Gli Hotel sono puliti e le camere spaziose.I did a private 3-day tour of the Mekong Delta with 3 friends in November 2022.

I did a private 3-day tour of the Mekong Delta with 3 friends in November 2022. Sinhbalo offered a great itinerary packing in loads of the area’s highlights at a very reasonable price. They responded to all of my emails quickly and were easy to deal with. The tour itself was excellent, including a great mix of lots of different boat trips, opportunities to see local life and industries, fantastic scenery and overnight hotel stays in large towns too. Our guide Ngan Danh was so knowledgeable and friendly, also acting as our unofficial trip photographer and sending us all his photos. I would highly recommend a trip with Sinhbalo, and will definitely use them again if visiting the area again in the future.Would highly recommend Sinbalo and our wonderful guide Loc. He was friendly, funny and very interesting and we learnt so much about the fruits, herbs and vegetables grown in the region.

Would highly recommend Sinbalo and our wonderful guide Loc. He was friendly, funny and very interesting and we learnt so much about the fruits, herbs and vegetables grown in the region. My bike was new and super easy geers ( which you need when peddling over the bridges!) We were given a different meal at every lunch and dinner - all were delicious. Loc and the driver kept perfect timing and we were always greeted with cool bottles of water, which in the heat was very welcome. This is an efficiently run company and Loc gave us a wonderful few days.We enjoyed a three days cycling trip in the mekong delta white the excellent local guide Quang. We also had a very good driver.

We enjoyed a three days cycling trip in the mekong delta white the excellent local guide Quang. We also had a very good driver. His name was Than and he never lost controlle in the busy cities. The food and the beautiful landscape were the highlights of this journey! We were always asked if we want to cycle more or less, so it was never too exhausting. We can only recomend this trip!All technical issues (booking, pick up and so on...) went smoothly. The tour itself was the only way to actualy see the life od the people living on the Mekong delta.

All technical issues (booking, pick up and so on...) went smoothly. The tour itself was the only way to actualy see the life od the people living on the Mekong delta. Forget boat trips offered by agencies, on this tour you see the real life (boat ride is a part od the tour, but just one of the activities smoothly ballanced with cycling). Mild to moderate pace of cycling. Everyone can do iz - you do not need long distance cycling experience. Numerous picture opportunities, as well as triing various local food. Our guide Queng was EXCELLENT!Where to start ! This was incredible , what an amazing way to finish up our time in Vietnam! We had the best guide , LOC ! what an awesome experience. It was safe !
