I did a one day hike to Tiger Falls recently with Luet. Even as a single traveler, they customized a trip and I was on the back of a motorbike for the same per person rate that they would use when they use a car/van for larger groups. Safety and service were top rate! And, the hike was great, but... More

We took 2 trips from Da Lat, a short mountain bike ride (3-4hrs) in the pine forests near town and a ride and raft from Da Lat to Nha Trang. The short ride was just as described and the 2 guides were attentive and helpful. Bikes were Giant mountain bikes in generally good and safe condition. The longer ride, 50... More

White water rafting? I don't think so! Booked the trip in the UK before heading out to Vietnam. Phat Tire arranged for us to be collected us from Da Lat airport for 10 USD which was good as the airport appears to be nowhere near Da Lat. Office manager surprised that there were 4 of us on the trip (me,... More

Infrequentnomad, Thank you for your feedback. We of course take all feedback seriously (both positive and negative). I apologize for the oversight of having your family go out on this trip with a 9 year old. That shouldn't have happened. It is difficult for us to gauge an accurate age cut off for difficult trips like this, but nonetheless we... More

We can highly recommend this fantastic experience. You don't cycle all the way, but get to enjoy many kilometres of downhill cycling with wonderful views to boot. Only small issue was the guide cyclist often went off too far ahead into the distance for no reason, though the back up car was always behind us which was great. More

Myself and a friend booked a one day trek with Phat Tires. We were late for the day we booked for as the tour bus people told us we'd arrive at 6am when we actually arrived at 11am! We turned up and they were really nice about it - despite the fact that the guide had turned up and our... More

I had several tours with Phat Tyres since 2009 : bike tour around Dalat, bike tour from Dalat to Mui Ne, canyoning. Every tour has been a great experience. All guides are professional, nice and speak good English. The service has improved over the years : good communication before the tour, pick up on time at your hotel, material in... More

We spent 5 days with Phat Tire. The 2 days in Cat Tien were slower paced but educational with some trekking and wildlife spotting then we moved on to Dalat for some real adventure! Mr Long, our guide, was superb ensuring we had a fantastic time canyoning, abseiling, climbing and mountain biking. This company has ensured they meet Western safety... More

We did the 2 day cycle trip from the cool, European villa dominated mountain retreat of Dalat to the kite-surfing mecca of Mui Ne on the coast. The trip took us through banana, coffee, tea and dragon fruit plantations, to spectacular waterfalls and villages, local markets and off-the-beaten-track restaurants. Our guide was just lovely and professional, and full of fascinating... More

We took the Jungle Boogie trek with Linh as our tour guide and it was a great experience. We felt from the beginning that he is a professional and indeed he is. We arrived to the starting point (for some reason we did the trek on the opposite route to what they told us in the email but that didn't... More
