Amazing Experience - My partner and I recently took a day trip to Vung Tau with SST Travel, and it was a wonderful escape from the city hustle. Our guide, Phuoc was incredibly informative and helpful throughout the entire day. He shared fascinating historical context about the city's past as a French colonial port, and detailed insights into key landmarks like the Christ the King statue and the White Palace. He was also excellent at navigating the itinerary, ensuring we had ample time for photos and local lunch. We felt truly taken care of—any questions we had were answered thoroughly, and their local knowledge really brought the sights to life. It was so much more than just a scenic drive; it was a rich cultural experience thanks to their expertise. If you are looking for an easy, insightful, and memorable way to explore Vung Tau, book this trip.Highly recommended.

In Japan, I think it's Atami. - They explained it in polite English. It was easy to use two limousines because there were only a few. It was the rainy season, but it was nice to see clear skies during the day. I'm glad I took part.

Mount Christ and Sand Beach - The tour guide Ryan is very professional, today I have a lot of fun, there is a chance to participate again; Ryan accompanied us to climb the mountains, always pay attention to everyone's situation on the journey, although I'm not in English, but he is very patient, willing to say slowly, try to let me understand, the end of the trip also helped me call the car, thank you, I can meet a good guide today

Friendly Guide and Amazing Journey - The tour guide was very friendly and kind. His English was fluent, so communication was smooth without any problems. Overall, the trip was enjoyable — I especially liked the food and the beautiful scenery. However, there are some areas that could be improved. At times, the trip felt a little dull. On the bus, it would be better if the guide used a microphone, as people sitting at the back could not hear clearly. In addition, the tour arrangement could be improved by separating the groups that want to swim and those that don’t. Otherwise, the non-swimmers end up waiting for a long time in the bus, which feels like wasted time. Thank you for the trip on 17 September (Wednesday).
