This was definitely not described the way you will encounter. The tour guide only meets you for the bike ride portion of the trip. There is not free water and the bus is in horrible shape. We stopped twice along the way but did not get any explanation about what was happening where we stopped. The lunch was ok, but definitely not like anything we have had here. The bikes were in terrible condition, brakes didn’t work, seats were falling apart, and you could hardly pedal. We stopped three times along the bike tour and those were really cool. Our guide Sonny was good at explaining what we were seeing. On the way back our driver got lost and spent over an hour literally driving in circles. Don’t recommend this company- spend a little more for something better.
Dear M/Ms. Alexis, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We appreciate your comments regarding the transportation, communication during the tour, bike conditions, and the return journey. Your feedback is valuable and helps us identify areas where we need to improve. We are particularly concerned to hear about the condition of the bicycles and the issues with the return transfer, as these do not reflect the standard of experience we aim to provide. At the same time, we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the stops during the cycling portion of the tour and that Sonny provided informative and engaging explanations throughout the ride. We will be sure to share your kind words with him. We take all guest feedback seriously and are currently reviewing the points you raised with our operations team to ensure future guests have a better experience.

Great tour! My partner and I learnt so much about the rice fields in Mau Chai and the Thái community there!
Thank you for the glowing review! We’re so pleased that you had a great experience with us. Your support means a lot, and we can’t wait to welcome you back again.
It's been so much fun! The very good driver, the comfortable car even heated the seats and gave massage! He left us a bottle of water and tissues for each one and gave us his cell phone to play music. Our guide is wonderful, super friendly, sweet and friendly. He told us about his family, the environment, the culture... He explained about the area, we made stops for photos and he took us beautiful! Looks like a postcard. The bike ride has been a lot of fun, it has taken us through beautiful landscapes, we have seen several villages and enjoyed all the surroundings that is amazing. We were 3 people and are delighted with the place, the guide and the driver. Highly recommended. Thank you so much!
Your positive feedback means the world to our entire team. We work hard to ensure every guest/customer leaves happy, and knowing we achieved that with you is truly rewarding.
Lindsey Lee was an incredible tour guide! Her knowledge of the sites we visited was both amazing and informative, bringing each place to life. She was caring and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable and well hydrated throughout the day. We could not recommend Lindsey more highly — she truly made our experience unforgettable. “See ya later mate!!”
Wow — thank you for the glowing 5 stars! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour and had a memorable experience with us. It’s feedback like yours that keeps us inspired to do what we love. We hope to welcome you back on another journey soon!
Mai Chau was a refreshing retreat into Vietnam’s countryside. Surrounded by green mountains and endless rice paddies, the valley felt peaceful and welcoming. We cycled through local villages, met friendly ethnic minority communities, and learned about their daily life and traditions. It’s the perfect tour for those who love nature and authentic culture.
