Excellent tour! They packed in a lot of stops with food, local musicians, multiple modes of transport on water and land. Very good overview of the Mekong Delta area. Our guide Thanh Truong was entertaining and knowledgeable.

This was an enjoyable day , it was a bit more commercial based than I thought with many stops at places that wanted you to buy . The bee farm, the coconut candy, even the first shop where we had musical entertainment had the tip box going around . Having said that though each place was worth visiting . The tea and snacks we received were tasty .The ride in the Tuk Tuks was an adventure, hold on tight . Lunch was delicious. The ride in the Sampan after lunch was the highlight as this felt you were getting The Mekong experience so would have like that to be longer . A good tour if you want a taste of The Mekong life .

Not real setting, too stylized for the tourist. Our guide did a fine job.
Review by: Andre F, March 2018
The first half was too organized, the tourist trap rest stop for 20 mins ! and the activities mostly seemed to be about getting you to buy a local product. The second half was a lot better, still quite gimmicky but it was fun! The Tuk Tuk ride and the rowing boat were highlights, the food at lunch was also very nice. The guide was sweet and knowledgeable and went out of her way to please. She did speak a lot, so the trip ended up being quite exhausting as you were listing 99 of the time

I LOVED this trip. _br/_ The scenery is spectacular and all the people are so warm and welcoming. I’ve read lots of comments about the drink sellers having attitude but I didn’t experience anything like that. _br/_ Buffet lunch was great with a huge selection of tasty dishes.

This was a great trip. We were picked up from the hotel and took an almost two hour drive through the city and headed south past the rice paddy fields. I could see in the fields what I first thought were little sun shelters, but hen realised that they were graves. The guide explained to us that these were the graves of the ancestors. In some fields there were a lot of them, which showed the generations that had been in that land. We had a bot trip to Unicorn Island where we sampled some of the locally grown fruits, and were treated to some singing by the amateur singers in their native language. It was very beautiful. After a very very bumpy tuk tuk ride we stopped for lunch at a local restaurant in the middle of nowhere it seemed . It was a tradional lunch of fried elephant fish in rice paper rolls and some prawns, it was served to us by some local girls. Then another small sampan trip down the river to the big boat and back to hotel by bus. It was a very interesting trip and apart from the tuk tuk trip,which left me with many bruises on my bottom I would have given it a five.

The guide was wnderful. However, this felt more like a tourist trap than an insight into the rural life of the delta. We live on a lake so the boat ride wasnt any big deal. Having said that, it was impressive to see the how small the factories for candy and chocolate are compared to the US.

This was a very enjoyable tour of the Mekong delta. We visited 3 islands. Got to taste some honey and tea. Visited the coconut candy workshop. Took a vietnamese tuk tuk ride through a village to a restaurant. Lunch was a little disappointing given all the great streetfood we had in Saigon.

This was, without a doubt, the most amazing thing we did in Vietnam. Every stop along the way was super unique. I'd do it again and again! If you can only fit in one tour pick this one!

Our guide Tan was a wealth of knowledge and also had great sense of humor. Our tour started with a trip to the Mekong 9 Dragons with a bit of history on Vietnam and some epic family stories. We learnt about Ancestral Land, Wifi, Honda-Scooters, and even got given the best advise on how to cross a road basically just go straight!

Unfortunately I became ill with a minor stomach ailment and was unable to take the tour. Therefore, I have no rating for this tour.

Excellent day. We made several stops before actually boarding the boat on the river. We got to see a traditional vietnamese home and learn about their customs. Lunch was at a lovely outdoor restaurant. If you don't like fish, make mention of it ahead of time so you can choose an alternative. The springrolls were made at the table with deep fried elephant ear fish. Then we had time to relax in the hammock before taking a ride on a tuk tuk. Next we boarded a boat that took us out to the smaller boats so we can go through the smaller channels. Overall it was a fun relaxing day. Be prepared with scunscreen and bug spray
