“The tour was great! One if the highlights of my trip to Vietnam. It was a super rainy day. The whole boat ride that lasted for 1,5h it was pouring rain. But for me it actually made the experience even more unique and fun. We also did the biking tour in rain. The buffet lunch had a lot if options and was very tasty. Only minus is that the tour guide didn't speak that good of an English. So pretty much the whole group had problem understanding what he was saying. Great value for the money!”

Bikes were in fine condition and helmets were provided. According to Khoi, the death count on his tours is stable at zero(!) and we felt completely safe in Hanoi traffic with him. What a ride!”
