Fantastic tour packed with activities, never a dull moment. Highly recommend, great experience with stark contrast to HCM and Northern Vietnam. Great communication (through whatsapp) for pickup and drop off directly to hotel.

I recently attended the Coffee & Course experience I booked through Klook and thoroughly enjoyed it. The instructor was passionate and knowledgeable, making the coffee-making process from bean to cup fascinating. The hands-on activities, include brewing our own coffee, were engaging and interactive. Tasting the coffee blends and make 4 different coffee drink was a highlight. The class size was perfect for personalized attention, and the session was well-paced. I highly recommend this experience to coffee lovers and those curious about the art of coffee-making.

Justin’s proficiency in english and his knowledge towards vietnam’s history is truly commendable. He guided us well and ensured that everyone was present before he started any of his explanations. He lightens the mood with his humorous jokes and ensures that we are all safe and sound at the end of the day. Good job and thank you Justin :)

Highly recommended! not only I was able to try the yummiest food, personal fave was the banana sticky rice but you also get to know about Vietnam history. My driver Van was excellent and the team leader Ken was really knowledgeable and was great at leading the group. Overall awesome experience. Do it at night rather than day, much better!
