SCAM ALERT!! Misleading pictures Beware - this trip cost does not include the price of the boat at Monkey Island. You will have to pay $300000 dong each extra to go on the boat. We booked English guide and she had Vietnamese customers on board too so we had to listen to everything in both languages. Our guide asleep on our tour. Booking specified that we would get dropped off at the same place we were picked up. They tried to drop everyone off at a town market instead. Don’t book your trip to Monkey Island through these people.
