One day like a local - It was a fantastic experience ! Our guide Lee was very kind and shared a lot with us about the life in the Mekong delta, as well as history and culture of Vietnam. We were offered a long and rich journey starting with an authentic vietnamese coffee before embarking on a boat in the delta. The captain even made us sail the boat before offering fresh fruits and rice wine. We then started paddling on kayaks to a village on the river where Lee spectacularly climbed a coconut tree to bring us the freshest coco juice. Then back to kayaking through the river, and peaceful river branches until we set foot on a small town. We had there an amazing lunch with local banh cahn and sugar cane juice. Our guide Lee then kindly drove us to the awe inspiring Chua Ving Trang temple complex. He then drove us back to our hotel to conclude this rich and adventurous day. I wouldn't hesitate one second to go again and try other courses, it is very much worthwhile and more !

Experience of a lifetime! - I was part of a group of 8 who recently visited Vietnam and Cambodia supported by the Countryside Adventures team (please also read Ali's review below). Once we were through passport control, we were greeted by the fantastic Vietnamese team. It was full on Rock 'n' Roll from thereon in :). Professionally managed, fully supported the whole time (in terms of guiding, information, cycling support and fantastic food and beverage stops all delivered with lots of smiles and filled with fun. I had some reservation prior to the trip (having never done anything like this before), however, I cannot think of one negative comment to say and I had such an amazing time, I cannot thank the Countryside Team enough (and of course my 7 fellow friends). We saw the most rural of villages and were greeted with lots of "Hello's" and smiles (and maybe even a little giggle at us!). It was the most humbling experience of my life. The whole team (in both Vietnam and Cambodia) were absolutely brilliant, Quang in Vietnam was sheer entertainment value. We were sad to say bye to Vietnam and the team, however, once across the border, we were warmly greeted by the Cambodian team, Phea with his amazing smile and humour, the Cambodian team mirroring the Vietnamese team, they are unquestionably passionate about what they do. A huge thank you to Ramon who was the best tail cyclist one could wish for (and super fast at sorting any cycle issues out), Mr Nall and Mr Mobitel for their great humour, fun, singing (and amazing neck massages !). A final thank you to Chau, professional, informative, supportive and above all, jolly good fun! If you are in any doubt about trying this, DON'T, you will never regret having an experience like this, having an opportunity to see the sights most tourists don't have the opportunity of seeing. To make it totally complete, just make sure you go with a fun group like I did!

Mekong boat and kayak tour - We had a great day on the Mekong river, kayaking and sightseeing by boat. Very interesting to see the delta and the people living there. Our guide, Ben, was very friendly and full of knowledge about the area. We had lunch at a local restaurant and it was the best meal we had during our stay. Highly recommended!
