  • Amazing!! A must do!

    Let me say this tour was amazing and I cannot recommend it enough! I went on this trip with a friend in a group tour with 6 other tourists. Our guides, Jason and Bi were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and patient. A few days before the tour, the guides contacted me by what’s app to confirm transportation arrangements. They also shared information on what to bring etc. They picked us up at our hotel and on our way to the boat, Jason and Bi explained the days itinerary and what to expect. Their English was great and we had no issues communicating at all. As a beginner snorkeler and swimmer, they reassured us and patiently educated us step by step on how to snorkel. We started off in water where we could stand to get accustomed to our equipment and later went to the Coral Mountain and North-East Coral Reef. We ended the trip at a relaxing beach waterfront, drinking juice and eating fruit which were complementary. There was a place to shower for 20.000VND which was definitely needed after being in salty water for awhile. The whole trip lasted from 12pm to 7pm including pickup and drop off at our hotel in Vinpearl land area. I’mSo happy I went on this tour, made fun memories, and would do it again! Highly recommended.

  • Loved this snorkel trip!

    The guides were amazing friendly and professional. One thing I liked the most is the care and consideration they took for the ocean. Other tour companies here don’t seem to have as much love and respect for the ocean and the reefs. They were also very impeccable with safety in all the ways and really looked out for beginner snorkelers so if it’s your first time snorkeling you’re in good hands.

  • Nice Boat Trip

    I had booked two trips with Onbird: 1. An afternoon boat tour (south islands) excellent communication via whatsapp. We did not want to snorkel, so it was appreciated that we were taken to nicer beaches. We were taken to 3 islands, the first two were incredible but the third was too commercial (and had too much damage). In hindsight, would have preferred only going to the first two islands. All in all, a good operator who I would use again for this type of trip. 2. Diving trip - this was disappointing as they cancelled the day before based on not having enough passengers. This was the only day I could dive and luckily managed to find another provider in time.

  • Lovely snorkeling experience in Phu Quoc

    Jason and the team were very friendly and helpful. We chose this tour because it only took 8 people max, less crowded compared to other ones taking more than 10 people. For those who have little experience in snorkeling, the team provided a brief crash course at the beginning in shallow water. I thought I knew the basics of snorkeling myself, but I actually learnt some useful tips on using snorkeling equipment. I really liked that initial introduction, instead of going to a snorkeling spot directly and diving into the water straight. The actually snorkeling itself - i didn't expect too much as Phu Quoc isn't really well known for that. You wouldn't find sea turtles or exotic school of fish. It was more about seeing some local coral reefs and mountains. Some of the coral reefs were pretty impressive. Jason and Gavin took some lovely underwater photos of me and my wife with the coral mountains in shot. The water temperature was just perfect so it was just nice swimming in open water. Stopping at May Rut Island was also great having fresh juice and slices of mango. Overall, it was a nice half-day excursion that I'd highly recommend!!!

    • Must have experience in Phu Quoc

      - The guides (Wavey and Zavine) were super friendly and kind. They were very professional and they instructed us really well from the very basic steps of snorkeling and also whenever each of us needed assistance. - The course was well planned, starting from the very shallow waters to the deep coral forests. - It was a great half day experience overall! We loved the experience of seeing all kinds or corals and fish in the clear water. Phu Quoc is so beautiful!- Make sure to take medicine for sea sickness before trip if you get sick on boats easily! The tour is also tougher than you expect so I recommend you get prepared. :)

    • The best snorkelling trip!

      We had the most amazing day snorkelling with Onbird. The guides were brilliant and gave very clear safety instructions whilst catering to all swimming/snorkelling abilities. The team take the conservation of the reef very seriously and were very informative about this. This tour is unlike other typical snorkel tours and you can see the care they have over creating the best experience for their guests. We would recommend Onbird and their snorkelling tours to anyone visiting Phu Quoc. Thanks so much!

    • Snorkelling done right

      Hands down the best snorkelling experience in Phu Quoc. Jason and the guys made the whole day feel exciting, fun and totally safe. The coral hill and coral mountain snorkelling were both excellent and we learned a lot about the local corals and marine life. The enthusiasm and energy the group organisers brought to looking after everyone and protecting the coral was truly inspiring and I hope these guys continue to lead the way for the other snorkel groups to follow. 10/10 experience and would recommend them in a heartbeat.

    • The best experience in Phu Quoc

      It was a great choice to book with Onbird! We were looking for a half-day snorkelling trip and they did not disappoint! Alex, our guide was very knowledgeable about the area, and he also created a super friendly atmosphere on the bus, so that we can get to know our fellow snorkelling buddies. In the water, he was paying attention to everyone's safety (also a big plus for the small group size!) The spots are breathtaking with colourful corals, all kinds of fish and even tiny jellyfish that look like little ghosts! The trip wasn't even finished when we started making plans to come back with an extended group of friends in September or October. Can't wait!

    • A MUST-DO IF YOU WANT A TRUE SNORKELING EXPERIENCE!

      Excellent tour and overall experience. I'm a diver and my mom (65 years old) has never done any snorkeling before. As soon as I made my reservations, onBird reached out to me for our information and informed us of the tour's itinerary. They kept us updated also on the water conditions. Honestly, I was pleasantly surprised by the customer service at onBird. On the day of the tour, we were welcomed by 2 very enthuasiastic and knowledgebale guides (Tuna and Bi). We are Vietnamese and we were with 2 other English-speakers (Korean and Indian). One guide was with me and my mom, while the other was with the other two foreigners. They made sure to accompany us according to our fitness and experience levels. They were very patient and attentive to my mom, who was a bit slow with the techniques) and the other guest who does not swim very well. Moreover, I'm very pleased with how the tour guides knowledge and attention to the health of the coral reefs. I was looking for a more authentic, slow-travel kind of tour and onBird provided me exactly that. It's a small tour where you know you will get a REAL exposure to nature. We added the photo services to have some nice photos for memories. Very satisfied with the outcome. This time I went with the Southern tour, which takes place in the afternoon. I'll definitely come back for the Northern tour (morning departure) next time. Thank you again for your amazing service. Keep up with the good work!

    • Highly recommended! Willing to revisit!

      We both enjoyed this tour, which was our first time snorkeling. As soon as we made the reservation for the tour, Emilie gave us full instructions on what to bring and kept us informed if there was a change in the schedule so we could enjoy it to the most. Alex and Bee were also fantastic tour guides! The excursion was highly educational because Alex provided information about the corals. The tour's best component, seeing coral mountains and reefs, was guided to a less crowded location. Alex and Bee helped us familiarize ourselves with snorkeling even though we were novices, and we were able to see a variety of fish and corals as a result. If we get the chance to revisit this island, we'll schedule this tour once more.

    • A very professional tour operator

      This was a very professional tour operator. We had 6 people in our group & 2 English speaking guides who both went snorkelling with us. The guides were excellent-they gave a detailed lesson on snorkelling techniques before we started as well as explaining a lot about the coral. They watched us all closely when we were in the water to ensure we all felt comfortable & showed us what to look at while we were all snorkelling together. They also took us to some interesting snorkelling sites away from the main tourist spots. I’d definitely recommend them & their gear was good quality too.

    • Best day of the trip!

      I booked a private snorkeling trip well before we went to Vietnam and it was the highlight of our trip to Phu Quoc and Vietnam. Our guide was punctual, friendly and helpful. We got straight out to the first spot which we used as practice (we could stand up). I appreciated that as I've only been snorkeling a couple of times.The coral reefs were beautiful and we saw many interesting fish. The water was warm and clear. There was a risk of rain in the week leading up to our trip but the actual day was clear. We were given countless bottles of water and on the last spot I had a fresh pineapple juice and my partner a smoothie (which was included).We ended up cutting our trip a little short just because we had had enough after a few hours - and that is the benefit of a private trip - you can finish when you want. Floating down with the current seeing the amazing under-sea creatures is a memory I will have of my trip. I would highly recommend this to others, including those who haven't much experience (like me).

    • Amazing coral reefs snorkelling experience with On Bird and Steven

      Even before going on the tour, On Bird were very communicative and responsive to our questions. We were picked up promptly and Steven and Gavin were amazing as were the rest of the boat staff. Steven explained in a clear way all the how to's of using the snorkelling equipment etc., and took us to amazing healthy Coral Reefs and received A1 guiding. The Company obviously really cards about the environment and preserving the precious coral around the various Islands in the area. And to top it off, even though i had an unfortunate accident towards the end of the trip and required stitches, Steven handled the situation really well and took matters seriously - even driving my husband and I to the hospital, acting as interpreter and I was in and out of there within 15 minutes, stitches, extra supplies for changing bandages and all. Amazing and I will remember well the feeling of being well looked after. Definitely recommend over any of the other companies.

      Onbird were excellent from start to finish. Booking was easy but thorough to ensure they fully understood our party’s needs. Safety was paramount whilst not inhibiting any fun. All abilities were catered for and really looked after to help them to build confidence. The snorkelling sites we visited were amazing with a huge variety of corals and fish.Thus is a definite must do when you visit Phu Quoc and we would thoroughly recommend On Bird. It is definitely worth paying a little extra to get a tailored experience without the crowd herding you get with so many other operators.

    • Best way to discover the underwater world

      An amazing day exploring the corail of the islands in the south of Phu Quoc. Steven, our guide, was excellent in his explanations, the way he cared about each members of the group and also helping us taking underwater pictures! (With our own GoPro). Overall the tour was exactly as advertised on the website, the snorkeling was peaceful, no rush, not crowded. We were not disturbed by other groups. The last stop on Love island was very relaxing, with showers available for 20k, large fruits platters and drinks, enjoying the view before returning to the main island. Everyone was so happy with the experience!

    • OnBird and Upward

      From beginning to end the experience with OnBird tours was exceptional. They made sure we were in communication before our trip thru email and whatsApp to let us know what to expect and tips for a better snorkeling adventure. A van of friendly crew picked us up right from our hotel and took us to the docks where our boat await. Steven made sure we were familiar with the equipment and our experience level before we went out to the reef. He was friendly, knowledgeable, funny and gave us the space to explore the reef. We finished our tour at an island with fruit and drinks before heading back to Phu Quoc to be dropped back off at our doorstep. We had the most wonderful time and would recommend OnBird to anyone visiting Phu Quoc who is wanting to have a good time.

      We had such a prefect day out. My daughter is 11 years old and was quite worried about the trip as she’s not a confident swimmer. The guide was so patient and kind to her that she ended up loving the trip and wants to go again!The guide also gave plenty of encouragement to our teenage son who also thoroughly enjoyed the experience. He was extremely knowledgable, spoke excellent English and explained how to equalise so we were able to dive deeper and really engross ourselves in the underwater world.Happy kids = happy parents and a wonderful day out amongst the most beautiful scenery.All the team were friendly and helpful which made us glad we chose this small group trip 😊

      It was a great trip, Steven our guide was very chatty and helpful. We went on a small boat for like 10 mins and were snorkeling for over 1.30h. We would have never found this place if it wasn't for Onbird. It was truly an amazing experience to see the coral so close and all the different colours and shapes. Thank you for that!

    • Great afternoon of snorkelling for the whole family.

      We loved the crystal clear waters and the diversity of the coral and the many fish we saw. The snorkel spot wasn’t too touristy and the coral seemed in good condition. Our guide was very friendly, helpful and informative and took time to explain all the different coral we came across. The equipment was clean and in good condition and didn’t leak at all. He gave us a comprehensive brief on how to use the mask, snorkel and fins and how to come off and back o to the boat. The whole experience from enquiring about the trip to the end when they dropped us back was smooth sailing and all our questions were answered quickly and fully. Totally recommend!
