Being a Vietnamese, I know Phu Quoc island like the back of my hand as my boyfriend & me visit this Vietnam’s largest island annually. So early this year, my uncle’s family of 5 got back to visit Vietnam and Phu Quoc island can’t be missed out. We decided to rent a speedboat with a captain only to explore some off-the-beaten-track islands in the An Thoi Archipelago ourselves then we got OnBird to arrange the car transfer and speedboat with a knowledgeable captain with little English. We were 7 in total (with 2 kids under 4, free of charge, a big plus of OnBird). The boat is spacious, we were told its actual capacity is up to 20 or 25 adults and it’s right. We can't express enough how impressed we were with the service OnBird – a young company in Vietnam provided us. They were by far the most professional and friendly boat company I've ever used also, in comparison with other big names out there. The guy we contacted with at the first hand, explained us every relevant information in advance (detailed & tailor-made itinerary, what to prepare before the trip, safety-conscious from the get-go which is very reassuring with kids on board, what we could see on each island, what included in the price,...) and he even supported us remotely. We made an appointment on pick-up time & address in advance by email. After that, The car driver & the captain met with us punctually as scheduled. After embarkation, the captain (Vy) then followed the track correctly, all things happened as expected. It’s our pleasure to introduce OnBird’s service to either first-comers to the island (for the tour with their guide) or repeated visitors (with car rental and/or speedboat rental only). Sorry for keeping delay on leaving some words on our experience as It’s quite busy this time. Thanks, OnBird team again!We have enjoyed our private trip a lot. We have visited 4 different swimming, snorkeling and relaxing spots. Nature was amazing and OnBird staff was professional and friendly. Great experience.

Great experience.Very enjoyable trip for 6 of us. The organiser was easily contactable on WhatsApp and helped to sort the whole day. We were able to spend as long as we wanted at each site before moving on. Altogether a fantastic and very affordable trip. Would highly recommend!

Knowing OnBird via their posts shared by other expats in Vietnam related to Phu Quoc island guides, esp. snorkeling experience and coral reef beauty. We have been here, in Vietnam, for almost 6 months due to Covid-19 so we need to get out of the hustle & bustle of Saigon and we are keen on snorkels in some parts of Phu Quoc island. Unfortunately, the weather this time is sort of 50-50, it's hard to predict whether the water is calm enough for best snorkels. Even though OnBird team encouraged us to not join the tour this early September, we still insisted on doing it on our own without the guide. :) We came to the idea of renting their boat with a suggested itinerary and the captain with little English. (yes sure we did have some snorkeling experiences in Bali and the Philippines). Booked a 7-seater car to pick us up @our hotel then drop us off the port for boat embarkation. We had their remote staff provide us all the necessary information in advance and everything was going with the flow. Fortunately, we both enjoyed the snorkeling trip in South Phu Quoc. The sea was much more silent and relaxing than we thought. We saw so vivid coral reefs under the water that never in Vietnam we have found. Thought of ocean conservation & coral reefs protection a lot after getting back. Hope that tourists should be more aware of sustainable development before making decisions to choose a tour operator or any service provider for their holidays! Thanks OnBird for making our great getaway!Words cannot describe the fun, friendliness and excitement that was a snorkelling trip with OnBird.

Words cannot describe the fun, friendliness and excitement that was a snorkelling trip with OnBird. The boat zipped along the coastline and took us to some of the finest beaches and snorkelling reefs left in Vietnam. The boat crew were helpful and friendly as they waited patiently for us to get on and off the boat, drink a bottle of gin and whatever else took our fancy. My friends and I would certainly recommend OnBird to anyone else who was considering a similar trip when in Phu Quoc. Bon voyage.We had a unique and amazing Christmas day! Very relaxed and great value for money. Captain was also a good guy.
