It's a low budget travel company that has offices up and down the country. But beware there are a number of copies (same name and logo), the real one is
Sinh Cafe
246-248 De Tham, D1, HCMC. Tel: 836 7338,

Sinh Cafe is a budget travel agency that operates a variety of tours throughout Vietnam and into Cambodia. However, beware! As a result of Sinh Cafe's success there are many pirate agencies that call themselves Sinh Cafe (or something similar) to hijack unwary tourists.
In Ho Chi Minh City, Sinh Cafe is located at 246-248 De Tham Street. We did the 2-day Mekong Delta and 1-day Cao Dai/Cu Chi Tunnel tours with them and were very pleased with their professionalism and service.
They also arrange package and open tours.

Hi
I think this is a real law budget one. Until I saw the original Sinh cafe address I had bookmarked another one (sinhcafe.com) and thought it was the real one. Their Mekong Delta tour cost over US$59 for 3 people (per person) and when I checked the real Sinh cafe price, it was only $11.14 per person. Wow!!

We have used Sinh Cafe on two different trips to Vietnam. No complaints, and for the money, there is no way I'd use other travel agencies we compared.
Kim's Cafe is another agency, just a couple doors down with comparable prices. We've never booked tours through them, so can only vouch for Sinh's.
We're getting ready to book again with them for October.

Good evening.
I saw your recent post regarding Sinh's Cafe giving great service? We have used them for local stuff twice, but never cross Vietnam so wondering about their open bus tours.
Did you book long distance tours with them? Wondering about their busses, hotels, etc.
Thanks.
