Went on a private tour with excellent English speaking guide named Emily. She was so kind and knowledgeable and has an amazing sense of humor. She also took videos and pictures of us and sent them to me. Had a great day and the driver (Mr Wing) was patient and professional.

You can’t visit Saigon without making the trip to the Mekong Delta. We had a wonderful guide. She provided so much interesting history. We were “one on one” with her and had our own car and boat. We highly recommend this experience. It was worth the extra money! We stopped at a Pagoda that is home to giant buddha statues and beautiful gardens. Next, we visited the river and various islands. The delta has a unique beauty and culture! The lunch was beautifully presented… great for pictures. But if you don’t want to pluck fish from the skeleton, make sure you bring extra snacks! The only thing we could’ve bypassed was a visit to the lacquer shop. It’s a high pressure environment. Several of the excursions include this particular stop. Had we known ahead of time, we would’ve requested to not to go there. We would highly recommend this trip.

Emily organized an amazing day exploring the Mekong Delta! She took us completely off the beaten path – no tourist traps, just authentic local experiences. We visited family workshops, explored quiet canals, and enjoyed incredible home-cooked food. Her local knowledge and connections made all the difference. If you want to see the real Mekong Delta, book with Emily. Highly recommend!

Bunny and the driver (Hai) were great! Very patient with us when we were delayed getting out of airport. Well worth it to take advantage of short amount of time in city.

We absolutely loved the Mekong Delta Full Day Trip. Choosing the VIP Private Tour was worth every penny, it felt completely tailored to us, allowing us to go at our own pace and truly escape the crowds. Our guide, Hannah, was fantastic! She was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and brought the history and local culture to life. Highlights included the peaceful, small boat ride through the canals, the coconut candy factory, and the amazing traditional lunch (that fried fish was a feast!). A must-do escape from Ho Chi Minh City. Highly, highly recommend booking this tour and asking for Hannah!

Hannah from Indochina Heritage was absolutely wonderful! Her and her company kindly accommodated my last-minute changes and made sure everything about my reservation suited my needs perfectly. Thanks to their flexibility and attention to detail, my partner and I were able to enjoy the tour in a more private and comfortable way. Truly outstanding service — thank you, Hannah!

We had a very enjoyable day with our guide Matthew and driver Mr Nam visiting the Mekong delta. Matthew was very friendly and knowledgeable about his country and was able to not only show us the sights but also to answer questions about the area or the country.

I can’t speak more highly of the tour and Bunny our tour guide. She made our day! Not only did the company organise to start earlier than scheduled, Bunny looked after us - translating, explaining Vietnamese culture, language differences, history and geography. She checked on our needs and made sure we always had our belongings after each stop. We went to the Mekong river boat ride, turtle island to try fruits and local honey and tea, we then visited Coconut Island and watched candy making demonstrations and taste tested a lot of varieties. We took a TukTuk to lunch at a riverside restaurant- had a feast of a lunch, went for a river canal ride and saw crocodile, frog, snake and fish farming, before going to the Pagoda. Bunny was the absolute best and this day I’ll never forget. Highly recommend booking the private tour with Bunny.

This trip was a great way to experience the Mekang Delta beauty in Vietnam. Our tour guide - Bunny, in particular was awesome. She shared many interesting facts about Vietnam and the locations we visited. Boat rides were thoroughly enjoyable and safe. Food was heavenly. Lot of personal care and attention give by Bunny durng the trip. Recommend everyone experience this tour when they are in Vietnam. Satya
