Traveler Reviews
Our trip was excellent. We got to see a lot of the area and packed in so many sites. Mario is a brilliant guide , very informative and very funny. Highly recommended.
Good day trip, Mario and Luigi were great fun and lots of fun information!
It was a lot of fun. The only negative was that we were being hurried a littley but there was so much to see and do that it literally didnt matter. Everything was so fascinating and awesome to see, its definitely worth the trip.
Really enjoyed our Mekong Delta tour with Phong and our driver Mr. D. Phong was great – always smiling, helpful and really engaged. He told us a lot about the area and local life, but everything felt relaxed and not like a boring history lesson 😄 We had a lot of fun, saw some really cool places and the whole day went super smoothly. Thanks Phong and Mr. D for a great day! Definitely recommend :)
Had a great time. Tour was very professionally run, with a great fun tour guide. BANANAS!!
I had a good journey during this tour thanks to Ken who took good care. I recommend him as a guide, i learnt a lot of Vietnam culture and his availabity was very appreciated.
It was an amazing experience. Our tour guide Lam was very knowledgeable and made the whole experience very pleasant.
We had a fantastic trip and could not have had a better guide than Phong, who is so knowledgeable and has a wicked sense of humour. We booked our tour very last minute (online late the night before) and they still accommodated us and collected us from our hotel (district 1) and dropped us back there. Amazing value for money and the group was really great. I’d highly recommend this tour (our driver Dee was also wonderful). We even got to hold a boa constrictor (named John Wick) Such a memorable experience
excellent tour and Phong is a great tour guide and Mr D was taking and bringing us back safely.
Had a great time, Phong was an excellent tour guide, we felt very safe with Mr D driving us, all over a great experience!
Really enjoyed this trip. The guide was informative and I liked hearing about the history of the Mekong and how life along the river works, it made the whole day more interesting than just sightseeing. The coconut candy workshop was a highlight, seeing how it’s made and tasting it fresh. The sampan ride through the narrow canals was my favourite part, very peaceful and beautiful. Overall a great experience and a good way to see the delta. Would recommend.
Our day trip was amazing, Tam our tour guide was very resourceful, he not only showed us the places but made sure we understood the history of this amazing country.
