We enjoyed our day trip with Lamb. Morning breakfast and coffee in the floating markets was an experience and tasty. Visiting the coco and rice factory was fun. Lamb was friendly and knowledgeable and really made our day with his kindness. We definitely recommend this trip if your visiting the area. We will be featuring this trip in our travel vlog on YouTube and social media accounts over the next few weeks @ourglobalgetaways

It was very good, visiting the small market, the floating market, the noodle factory and the cocoa farm. Hannah is an excellent guide, very attentive and explains very well. We feasted on all the fruit she made us taste and the noodle soup. This tour is very well dosed and we recommend it to you those visiting Can Tho. The morning passed very quickly. We were lucky to be just the two of us for this tour and it was really good. From the sun and then from the rain, Hannah had everything planned: hats and then rain capes!
Wonderful tour of the Mekong !

Enjoyed the whole experience! Breakfast on the floating market was delicious and we loved seeing all the different boats selling their wares. We even got to climb onto one of the boats and see how they live aboard. The noodle factory was a hands on experience and very interesting. We were able to take part in some of the steps in cooking, drying and cutting the noodles. Then we visited the cacao garden and were shown the steps in making chocolate. The iced chocolate drink was so good we had two! This is definitely a tour I would recommend you do when you visit Mekong Delta. Our guide Hannah was wonderful and we learned a lot about local life on the river.
