Full description

This is a 9-hour experience in Ho Chi Minh City. It is run by Vietnam Adventure Tours JSC, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

A private day with a driver-guide is the way to see the most of a Japanese city or region in one day, because it removes the transfers between sights that eat a third of the day on public transport. Prices are usually per vehicle for up to a set number of guests rather than per person, and cover the car, fuel, tolls and the guide; entrance fees and lunch are paid as you go unless the listing says otherwise. Japanese guides are licensed for the work and typically punctual to the minute. Give the operator your priorities, and expect them to reorder the day around opening hours and crowds; that is what you are paying for.

The price covers Door-to-door pickup and drop-off in Ho Chi Minh City, Transportation by air-con private vehicle, tour guide, All boat trips and Vietnamese lunch. It does not cover Tips & gratuities, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Hotel pickup in Ho Chi Minh City. Vietnam Adventure Tours JSC confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in.

Wonderful trip with my best friends. Dang Nguyen, our tour guide was very kind and super helpful. We took a private tour for 3 people and it was very flexible for us. The drive was smooth and comfortable. Mien Tay is an unique place that presents the Southern Vietnamese culture and friendliness. We got to visit a couple islets in Ben Tre, My Tho, and Can Tho. The floating market is cool although it is fading as the local infrastructure gets more improved. Highly recommend before there is no floating market anymore.

We had a wonderful trip to Can Tho and the Mekong delta, visiting the floating market in Cai Rang and local produce markets, while utilizing different means of transportation. Our guide Andy has been exceptional too, planning a perfect day trip with multiple stops and showing us all sights and cultural details of the area - well done.

Dylan was an excellent guide. All the activities were enjoyable. The floating market was very interesting and the breakfast was delicious. Walking through the village was also very interesting.

Four of us did the tour with Việt as our guide. It was super personal and we also learned a lot about life and the country away from the sights. Also about the problem of pollution, which the population is well aware of, but which will certainly take another 1-2 generations. All in all, a great day with lots of impressions and experiences. Well organized, great guide. I would book again.

We had a great experience. Although I wasn’t sure about the “private guide” part — and the higher cost, I’m glad we chose it. Theo (our guide) was very knowledgeable and easy to get along with (and has solid English skills). The limo (a highly-appointed passenger van) was super comfortable. Although we saw other tourists at many of the places along the tour, we had a superior experience, getting to do things rather than just see them.

Very exciting trip. More time spent on the way due to long drive but once we reached at the destination, it was worth the trip. We enjoyed the boat ride in the canals of Mekong, enjoyed rain which was a pleasant addition to the trip, songs, fruits, cycling, making pancakes, drinking coffee and eating pineapples in Cai Rang.

It may be a long day but it’s well worth it. The trip includes side stops of interesting places along the river. Our guide Annie was very good in introducing various culture and history background of Vietnam.
