5.00Our guide Tu, and his driver, fetched us from our hotel at 7am and drove us to the Delta. It was a great experience with Tu being very interesting by providing us lots of information about the areas we visited. We got on a TukTuk and drove down small lanes with coconut groves, also went on a long boat on the Mekong which was very peaceful and relaxing. We saw traditional mat making and enjoyed a delicious lunch in beautiful jungle surroundings. A tour highly recommended.
A bit of everything = amazing

5.00Qui was an absolutely wonderful guide and took great care of us throughout a fascinating day - the combination of three boat rides, tuk tuk, and walking let us see so many places and vantage points. Lunch was incredible, delicious and generous amount of food, with plenty of snacks along the way. Such a special day. Highly recommend!

5.00Ni was a wonderful guide. She spoke perfect English and explained everything well. After driving out to Ben Tre we saw bricks being made and coconut candy being produced by local villagers. We had several rides along the river in both a motorized boat and a row boat. Lunch was delicious and the whole experience was very private and away from other tourists. Highly recommended.
