Bike day and food tasting with Mo - We did the bike tour with three friends all over sixty and found it easy and accessible . The bikes were simple but functioned well. Mo is a very nice person who shared her knowledge with great enthusiasm. She showed us the production of Tet cakes and other specialties in authentic places in homes of inhabitants and took us around the market where she informed us about fruit, flowers, vegetables and fish, specific for the region with good knowledge and interaction with the local sellers and farmers. We had en very nice day full of little surprises, color and tasting Maryse Belgium

Excellent little cycling trip around Dong Hoi - We really enjoyed our afternoon cycling with Mo. We cycled around the town and sampled various Vietnamese specialties. She showed us how the special Tet cakes are made in the house of a local inhabitant. We went round the very interesting flower and food market and ended the afternoon with a nice hot drink. Mo is a lovely and lively guide with excellent English. Highly recommended!

Cycling Dong Hoi - We had a fantastic day cycling around Dong Hoi with Mo visiting various Vietnamese eateries and the markets where she introduced us to a range of traditonal cuisine. We alao visited a fisherman's hut and learnt about how this 100 year old practice is done. Highly recommended!

Amazing tour and food! - 10/10! We wanted to explore Dong Hoi but didn’t know where to start. Mo’s tour was the perfect way to see the city and try all the foods we NEVER would have found on our own! From a true street cart to making our own dumplings, to the local fish market and then to her friend’s fishing cabin where they made us dinner from their catch that day, we couldn’t have had a better time! While the market isn’t for the sensitive traveler, if you’re looking at this excursion then chances are you’re adventurous and ready to take on a truly local experience. Mo herself grew up here and is so knowledgeable about the history and culture of not only Vietnam but of Dong Hoi specifically. She was a great guide and showed us the best time. We were really glad we took some time away from the caves to go on this tour!

Little Piece of Đồng Hới - This was such an amazing tour. Mo is great. I loved seeing all the sights, trying all the food, and meeting so many warm and kind people. I have a deeper understanding of Vietnam and Đồng Hới. You are the best, Mo!

An Absolute Must Do Experience!!!!! - Absolutely brilliant experience! A must do activity in this incredible city. Our wonderful guide was knowledgeable, funny, helpful and down to earth. Biking the busy streets didn’t feel unsafe, it was a huge highlight! Darting in and out of lanes and merging traffic was hilarious!The street food experiences were filled with cultural diversity. Finishing off with the magical sunset and laughs with the locals. 100% must do! Thank you.

One-of-a-kind experience - We joined the Dong Hoi Biking and Street Food tour. Mo was a passionate, cheerful and thoughtful guide—incredibly kind and generous. This was truly a one-of-a-kind experience that made us fall in love with Dong Hoi. From the get-go, Mo made us feel like we were hanging out with a friend rather than simply doing a tour. She never rushed us, so we were able to savor every moment. The tour offered amazing opportunities to meet with different locals, especially a time to eat and chat with local fishermen, who kindly allowed us to see part of their daily life and shared the fish that they had just caught! Everyone we met was so kind and welcoming. Every food we tried was scrumptious. Moreover, biking around the town allowed us to view it from an especially lovely perspective. This is not a tour for people who hope to rush around and see a million things in a day. But if you are seeking a taste of local life and/or value truly being present in a place, this is the tour for you. We thoroughly enjoyed this unforgettable day and were especially moved by Mo’s dedication to helping the local community here.

Only dumplings - We started in a coffeshop. Visit the market an we where going to eat viet pancakes. The restaurant was closed so no pancakes. We had som dumplings, they where very good and then we where supposed to have som soup but that restaurant was closed. And then the tour was over after 3 hours instead of 4. I asked if we could visit another restaurant but she said that no one where open! It is a city and it seems very strange that there was nowhere to go and have some pancakes and soup! I saw a lot of opened restaurants and this small business in the street. We where disappointed since we paid for food we never got to eat. The bike tour itself was fun though and the guide spoke great English and was otherwise very nice.
