5.00A must do tour at Phu Quoc. Amazing sight seeing, experiences and information. Tour guide (Tahn) was the same we had for South Island tour, super knowledgeable on history and facts, always very happy and approachable and very engaging along the way. Allow a full day for tour, we were picked up from hotel at 8am and dropped off just before 6pm. Highly recommend doing this tour and suitable for everyone.
Not what's promised.

1.00It all started when the driver who picked us up drove us to the wrong place. After 50 minutes by car we were back where we started. Not how you want to spend your day out. We spent an extra hour for a visit to the silk factory, something that was not included in the tour when we booked it. The visit was just about selling and it was a completely pointless visit. It was also not included when we booked the tour that we would stay at a bee farm. Thankfully this was the last stop so we could take a grab from there so we didn’t have to be there.These stops must be shown when booking so you can choose another tour. One of the promised stops according to the itinerary, Ganh Dao, we apparently would not go to. Why do they have it in the plan??? The other activities were ok.
Excellent land trip to visit the north of island

5.00Khan did a great job in being our guide today. The trip was well organized and we enjoyed it very much. Khan was very flexible in managing the timing of the activities.
Great kayak, bee visit and funny guide. Shame about the lack of respect shown and care from tourists at starfish beach

5.00Kayaking great, bees interesting, guide funny and informative. However at starfish beach..... the guides did not give any instructions not to touch the starfish, many tourists were picking them up and out of the water, or not taking care of these wonderful creatures..... Not nice to watch and some of our group ended up telling people not to get them out of the water. Please instruct on starfish care/respect
Wonderful trip with Johns Tours

5.00Ren was our tour guide and he was fabulous. We were not rushed, he told us fabulous facts and stories. We loved this trip and especially the starfish but it was all fabulous. Ren definately deserves a bonus. All Johns TOurs have been perfect so far. Great value for money too.
A private tour of the North

5.00We booked a private tour of the north island with Klook and was assigned John Tours. We then got a text from Stella from John Tours that our booking specified a different pick up area and have to pay additional 300,000. I reasoned with Stella that as a tourist I am not sure of the region but Klook should have picked this up earlier instead of Stella informing us. Anyway this private tour allows us to pick 6 points of interest with only a car and driver - who cannot speak English. We later hired a tour guide and Khanh was his name. Very knowledgeable about Phu Quoc. We understand each other. His geograhical knowledge of Phu Quoc is commendable. He made some good recommendation of our itinerary. He is gentle, patient and helped me when we were doing the waterfall walk - keeping a lookout for me. At places of interest where admission fee is required, he would inform us first - almost apologetically. We left Starfish island around 445pm and there is the Bee Farm that we did not cover. Khanh said lets do the Bee Farm before going back to Radisson Blu. Our engagement with him is supposed to finish by 5pm. We declined his offer and we were dropped at our hotel by 530pm. A good tour guide's qualities are: friendly, caring, gentle, patience, helpful, resourceful and knowledge of his job scope. Wearing the John Tour white and blue tee, he represents the Company and he sure did a good job. Keep up the good work Khanh and I wish you all the best this season.
Great excursion
