Vinh Guru and their team of friendly, knowledgable and hospitable people provided excellent service, transportation and a splendid local guide during our full day tour which included Green Tea Island, Chu Dai Tue Temple and Ho Chi Minh’s home town.

Nous avons fait le circuit 2 jours une nuit à pu mat parc en famille (3 personnes) et nous le regrettons pas : ce circuit nous a permis d’avoir une autre approche du Vietnam, loin des hordes de touristes de hoi an ou de la baie d’halong (en fait on a vu zéro touriste pendant ces deux jours). Nous étions accompagnés par Andy et harley qui ont été aux petits soins pour nous. Véhicule très confortable et conduite de andy très attentive et prudente. Le circuit en lui même ne permet pas de s’enfoncer dans la jungle et de voir des animaux sauvages, mais c’était bien précisé avant. Par contre il permet de découvrir la minorité thai vietnamienne lors de différentes rencontres très enrichissantes : sur la route, au homestay ou dans le village thaï. Notre nuit au homestay était vraiment authentique avec de belles rencontres. Côté nature : cascade de kem (où nous avons pu facilement nous baigner, même en fevrier), canyonning, bateau sur la rivière, petite grotte et petite rando. Cela dit, même s’il n’y a pas besoin d’avoir une super condition physique, tout n’est peut être pas accessible à tous. Mais je suis sûr que Andy saurait s’adapter. Sur la route entre vinh et pu mat de beaux paysages de rizières et la traversée de nombreux villages. Bref, à faire si vous voulez découvrir un Vietnam authentique et faire de belles rencontres. Un grand merci à nos deux guides, en particulier pour le sens de l’organisation de andy et la bonne humeur communicative de harley.

If you’re seeking an authentic, non-touristy experience, this is the way to go. In all my travels, this was by far the most amazing experience I’ve logged… Andy and Nha, our guides, were friendly, genuine, and incredibly knowledgeable about their country…They took us to a local vinh restaurant for a traditional eel soup breakfast…which was surprisingly good!… And finally they took us into Pu Mat for an amazing waterfall hike before arriving at the best part – the homestay. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! We were welcomed into the home of a local husband and wife, who cooked for us, shared their homemade rice wine, and opened their home so that we felt as if we lived there. It was the most authentic and humbling travel experience of my life… we were guided up a river and I to a jungle that so few tourists see that we needed to stop at a local Vietnamese army checkpoint just to gain approval to venture I to this protected jungle. It was beautiful and untouched, the type of off the beaten path experience that is almost impossible to find anymore… I cannot speak enough about this experience it, I will forever cherish it. THANK YOU Andy, Nha, and VinhGuru for giving me the type experience I always envision but rarely find when traveling the world. I recommend you to the world!

This was one truly one of the best experiences I’ve had in many years of travels. We did the two day Pù Mat trip with Andy and Nha, and man did we have fun. They were friendly, conversational and all around a joy to travel with. You really get off the beaten path here – hiking, visiting locals and truly enjoying local culture. The homestay was the most authentic travel experience I’ve had. Definitely recommend for anyone looking to get off the beaten path and do something truly authentic!

Andy was our guide for the day, and the least we can say is, what an absolutely awesome day!!! Whilst in Vietnam myself and my father have done many tours but never have we been looked after as well as we have been today! Andy will take you to all the best spots, including getting up close and personal with some aquatic fauna. Be prepared to get wet, and have some fun, you’ll be tuckered out by the end, but well fed the entire day!! 11/10 Thank you Andy!
