Therefore, the number of tourists coming to the island is increasing dramatically. Vinlove would like to give some necessary information to help you avoid the scams here, ensuring the trip has real meaning.
Diep Son Island only goes by canoe, not by boat
Currently, the means of going to the island are mainly canoes, only a few backpackers use fisherman’s boats to cross the island, this way is not safe and there is no insurance at all. Currently, there are fishing boats participating in carrying passengers to the island to play very dangerously. This condition is very common. The reason why renting a fishing boat is popular is because it is cheap and costs less. Accordingly, renting a fishing boat carrying 15-20 people to the island only costs 400,000 to 500,000 VND/day, while canoeing costs 3 to 4 million. Due to the low price, many people take advantage of fishing boats to conduct illegal tourism activities.
Besides, they also have the trick of “hanging goat’s head to sell dog meat”. If you see a tour for sale that takes the train, it is a sign that you are being scammed. As soon as you step into the car, the guide will immediately announce that today because of some ABC reasons, you can’t take the train, you have to pay an additional 80-100k to go across the island by canoe. At this point, you will have no other choice and have to do what they say. So please be careful.
Canoes with sizes ranging from 16 – 36 seats run from the mainland to the island for about 15-20 minutes, but usually with enough numbers, the canoes will run. If you are late or few people (3,4 people)
Cheap tour with less experienced guide and lunch cut
It’s true that “whatever you get”. When you have accepted to buy a cheap tour, it means that you should prepare to welcome the lack of quality service.

These people sometimes do not have enough knowledge in professional activities, so it will make you feel vague, the trip is not scientifically planned.
Along with that, many cheap tours will cut your lunch for unconvincing reasons.
