Mekong less touristy trip - Tri our guide was brilliant and entertaining. Picked up from hotel and arrived at Mekong earlier than anticipated which was great. Very informative and the river cruise was great..felt as if the only one on it. Cooking class excellent and food outstanding. We did the bicycles and we were the only people on it. There were only five altogether which is why we booked this type of tour. Slightly more expensive than the larger group tours but well worth every penny. Would recommend anytime.

Great experience meeting the locals - Great tour- was only two of us which was nice. Met lots of locals and the food was amazing! Ended earlier than we thought it was going to but not sure if that’s just because it was only two of us. Our guide Hine was great and very informative
