4.00Ruby was adorable throughout the visit. Clearly explained, she answered all the questions. The morning was pleasant, visit the land market then floating with tasting full of fruits and a very good soup. Visit the cocoa farm and the noodle factory. Very interesting. I removed a star because of the pollution that is impressive and would need to be really taken seriously by the Vietnamese people.
Absolute recommendation

5.00A very nice tour. Ruby has created a great atmosphere, has responded to all wishes and is overall a very charming guide. We all found the individual stations (floating market, rice noodle making, canal and cocoa farm) very exciting. Very delicious was the breakfast from one of the traders at the floating market (noodle soup), which (especially the broth) is possible vegan no problem. We also found it nice that it was not a sales event at any time.
Absolute highlight tour on the Mekong

5.00We had a very varied and interactive excursion that took us from the Floating Market, through a rice noodle factory, through picturesque canals and finally to a cocoa farm where we could trace the whole process of traditional chocolate making. We were accompanied by Mai, who did her job wonderfully and introduced us very lovably not only to the individual stops on the tour, but also to life and culture in the Delta.
Great tour with Tammy
