The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. There was flood that day and she rushed to buy us Flipflops. The experience was unique and didn’t feel touristy. We managed to see a lot in a short time

It has been very interesting to tour the canals of the park in a small boat. It makes you feel closer to nature. Our guide has been very kind to take us to a 100% Vietnamese restaurant, which we would not have gone to if not for his proposal. It is a recommended activity. Greetings
A great trip away from Saigon

Today, we ventured off the tourist trail, about an hour from Cần Thơ, into the hidden wetlands of Lung Ngọc Hoàng — a place still untouched by mass tourism. It was a rare, authentic glimpse of the Mekong Delta at its purest. We cruised through peaceful canals blanketed in water plants, surrounded by pristine forest. We stopped by an ancient heritage tree with deep wartime history, and watched wild birds flock freely — nature’s quiet masterpiece. Such a great tour.
Amazing day out into the Mekon around Can Tho.

Loved the tour with Nick! It was a really nice day out into the Mekon. The tour included breakfast at the floating market, fruit tastings, a visit to a noodle factory and a cacao farm (inc. tastings). All supporting the locals. As we went around in a small boat, it felt like a very private tour and it was easy to see the local life and nature on the water. Nick was happy to answer all of my questions and I also appreciate the pictures/videos that he took. Thank you for such a great day!!
Very enjoyable and divers tour!

Loved the tour with Nick! He made the day a lot of fun. There were many stops and tastings! He speaks English super well and was able to explain many details during the day. Going by a smaller boat, made the experience feel more private too. The floating market, the breakfast, the fruit tasting, the visit to the cacao farm, the exploring of the river and more. I enjoyed it all!! Thank you Nick.
An unforgettable moment

We visited the Mekong Delta with Nhi, a young student who is part of Minh's team. We are a family of 3 with a young teenager of 13 years. The program: pick up at the hotel at 5:30 by Nhi by taxi, then we left to join our boat. 30 minutes to reach the floating market, then breakfast which was delicious (I am of Vietnamese origin). Then we strolled through the mangrove forest and stopped at a rice noodle factory. We participated in the making, it was really very funny. Then we stopped at the fruit nursery, visited the nursery and tasted a dragon fruit, a guava and a mango. We walked a quarter of an hour along the water to reach a cocoa plantation. Nhi, explained to us the process of making chocolate, cocoa butter. Then we took over the boat, and got on a boat from a pineapple seller (very good!), visited her boat, bought her some souvenirs. And in return to a traditional market and lunch in a bánh xèo restaurant. This trick, it amazed my husband and daughter. They understand how lucky they are. Thank you to Nhi for his kindness. Be humble, give some money to the people you meet, it's only a coffee in France but it means a lot to them.
Great tours from Nick

We have had two tours with Nick through our travel organization. Nick speaks good English and has a lot of information about the Khmer, floating market, noodle factory and cocoa plantation. With that the tours are also very informative, in addition Nick is very welcoming, we had a beautiful authentic experience.
