Had a great time on this tour. I got to see ALOT in one day and Toan, my tour guide, was so great! He shared a lot of information and facilitated a really nice day. Boat rides, local food, local sights…it was special! The boat rides were my favorite part!

The noodles and coffee on the boat was a lovely experience as was the rice noodle making and rum tuk drive through the rural villages. I’d pass on the cocoa and song and dance which was a bit contrived. Overall very enjoyable change of scene from Saigon

This was a very informative tour. I have heard the Mekong Delta in war references since I was young, but I didn’t know what it was all about. Max was great at explaining how the locals live and how the floating market was a trading hub until modern shipping methods took over. It was definitely worth the drive from HCMC to experience this important area. And Max was Awesome!
