Hi Phuong,

Sorry for the delay in coming back to you, Van and Dat. Could you please provide this to Van and Dat as well.

Thank you Vietnam Cycling Tours for a great Vietnam experience. We can’t speak more highly of the trip and the whole experience. Having had the opportunity to undertake a cycling trip with my sons (10 years ago), I was a little concerned as to whether it would be as good as last time as we were travelling with close friends. The trip actually exceeded my expectations. It was brilliant.

The off road sites were fantastic, accommodation was great and the amount of information that Dat was able to share with us was so informative. We would highly recommend the experience. Thank you once again Phuong and Van for your efforts in undertaking the organising of the trip and being so understanding and patient in this process.
