We did the Can Tho / hotel stay bike and boat tour with SinBalo, which was a highlight of our Vietnam Trip. Ut was a fantastic guide, a Mekong Delta local giving us a lot of information and answering our many questions. He and the van driver were good-natured, friendly, professional, and responsible.
Bicycling got us into areas a tourist would never see; I wanted a helmet camera on at all times, but I’m happy for the memories. Seeing island life and the Can Tho floating market were highlights.
All of the email arrangements, logistics, food, etc. were excellent – we didn’t have to think about a thing. It was a small group, and since others joined our family of 3, it was less expensive than we originally thought. You may pay a bit more with SinBalo, but you also get what you pay for.
I’m just sorry we didn’t have time to do a longer trip. I would highly recommend this company for any of their tours. BUT . . . the Mekong Delta was very special.
Thanks Martyn! I will defo remember this for my next trip to Nong Khai. I haven’t exlpored much around there (apartment from visiting the Friendship bridge 20 times or so) What’s it like? Worth a special visit?
