I relied on the very good reviews to book a trip and it did not disappoint!! AMAZING experience! Such a good way to visit Vietnam! We were in the villages and felt like the only tourists who had ever been around, felt extremely safe and well taken care of by our guide Mr Thuan! Accommodations were great and the food was awesome as well. Will definitely book another trip with them in Asia :)

My wife and I really enjoyed our private cycling tour around northern Vietnam! It was very affordable and great value for all the beautiful sights we got to see, exceptional service, and delicious local food we enjoyed.

Our guide, Thuan, was one of the best we’ve ever had in all our travels. He was personable, attentive, knowledgeable, a good communicator, and a really fun cycling buddy. He had excellent food recommendations and brought us to local spots that we would have never found on our own. We hope to plan another tour with him in the future!

Booking was really easy as well. Quy reached out immediately and was very helpful with crafting the right tour itinerary for us.

If you’re looking to cycle around Vietnam or other countries in the region, you can’t go wrong with Thuan, and Quy. They were recommended to us by friends, and we would recommend them to you too!

First encountered Thai and team on same charity tour as Horacio.  Then the Mai Chau-Pu Luong one.  Each time Thai and his expert team of experienced riders and professional support team have made the tour experience effortless, even if the riding has been challenging - just the way it should be.  That's why I can't wait to ride with them again - next stop, I hope, Ha Gang loop.
