Traveler reviews
A breath of wilderness close Ho Chi Minh city
We had a wonderful time visiting the mangrove and learning about the history of the place (and Vietnam in general). Max was a great guide and really knowledgeable, thanks again and hopefully we'll meet again! Seeing monkeys, bats, birds and navigating in the mangrove was so refreshing in the middle of a trip with so busy and lively cities
Monkey Mayhem
We saw many friendly monkeys, some bats, and even got to feed crocodiles. Mom was a great conversationalist and spoke great English. Easy 5/5
Fun activities, lovely...
Fun activities, lovely landscape, friendly guide and not too far from Saigon. I really enjoyed travel.by speed boat and look out to the mangrove forest.
Great Visit to Biosphere Reserve
We spent a wonderful day at Vam Sat Mangrove Reserve with our guide Max. His excellent English, combined with a comprehensive knowledge of the reserve’s natural features and wildlife, made for an enjoyable and educational experience. This was our first excursion since arriving in Vietnam, and we were very happy to have spent it with Max, who made us feel most welcome!
Fun filled trip
Wonderful day spent exploring the mangroves, with Kevin as our guide. Very professional and knowledgeable. Answered all my questions patiently and showed us around well. My sons enjoyed his conversation with them. Thank you Kevin for all your efforts.
