The trip lived up to its name - it was incredible

5.00A truly fascinating deep dive into the Mekong region. The 3 days allowed us to reach as far as the Cambodian border and see an huge variety of life and culture in the area. The excursions were well planned, varied and fun, involving boat excursions of all size and speed and even visiting a hill temple riding pillion on a local bike. Luan our guide made us feel safe and looked after at all times - we could never have accessed or learnt what we did without him. He is a brilliant guide, full of knowledge and insight. We highly recommend him. Highlights of the trip included the early morning floating market, the canoes along the river, the cooking course, the simply stunning Tra Su National Park and of course the food.

5.00From the very beginning the tour Luan (Ethan) our guide was amazing. From discussing the itineary to teaching us basic vietnamese nothing was to much trouble and he ensured everything went smoothly from the get go . The car - a very comfortable MG sedan - and driver ensured we travelled in style and comfort and the hours flew by. The tour itself is fantastic. From floating down canals in the Mekong to visiting temples adjacent the Cambodian border you wont be dissapointed. Luan is a very knowledable guide and explained the history of the regions and sites with passion and insight. Highly reccomend Luan as a guide. Five stars
Recommended trip to the Mekong Delta.

5.00Fantastic day trip to the Mekong Delta with Mahn as our guide and Than as the driver. Mahn told a lot about Vietnam’s history, and was very knowledgeable, kind and good at having fun of my son. We experienced the most beautiful local villages, sailed on canals, the Mekong River, visited a temple and a flower farm. In addition, Mahn surprised with birthday cake when it was my birthday. All in all, an unforgettable day.
Great trip to the Mekong Delta

5.00Great tour with the excellent Manh as our guide. Three days in the Mekong Delta, with an adjustment to the schedule to accommodate the fact would not return to Saigon but head on to Phu Quoc island. Driver let everything calm on the road. Driving, cycling, back of a motorbike, floating down rivers…a lot to fit in but super interesting.
Outstanding Private Tour – Highly recommended!

5.00We are a family of three from Munich in Germany and booked a 2,5 days private tour from Saigon to Ha Tien Pier. Our guide James was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the history of Vietnam and many other topics. We really enjoyed listening to him. The car was very luxurious and comfortable, and the program was simply excellent. We highly recommend Asiana Link Travel. Everything was perfectly organized. It was one of our highlights of our four weeks Vietnam holiday.
THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND!!

5.00We were delighted and grateful to have shared this tour with our guide Luan and driver Thao . As 3 ladies travelling to VN for our 60ths they were always happy to accommodate our needs. Luan’s vast knowledge of the varied cultures of the Mekong Delta and contacts with the local community added extra meaning to the experience. This unique tour packs a lot into 3 days and Luan and Thao showed a genuine love for their job and brought humour to make this tour the trip of a lifetime !! Big thanks from the Susans !
