A fantastic day trip to Thoi Son (Unicorn) Island, the Mekong Delta, and Vinh Trang Pagoda

5.00We recently enjoyed a fantastic day trip to Thoi Son (Unicorn) Island, the Mekong Delta, and Vinh Trang Pagoda. The tour was led by Hung, who was incredibly knowledgeable about each location. Hung provided fascinating insights, answered all our questions, and made the entire journey smooth and enjoyable. My family and I had a wonderful time exploring these spots, enjoyed a delicious lunch and treats on the island. Truly appreciate Hung’s efforts in making the day memorable. If you’re considering this tour, we highly recommend going with Hung—he did an awesome job!

Mekong Delta Full Day Tour

5.00The Mekong Delta – Full Day Tour Explore was truly a memorable experience, especially for those who want to discover the charm of the Mekong Delta within just one day. From early morning, the tour departed on time, with a friendly and knowledgeable tour guide who shared many interesting stories about local culture, history, and daily life, making the journey more engaging. The highlight of the trip was the boat cruise along the Mekong River. Sitting on the boat, enjoying the peaceful river scenery, lush coconut palms, and the slow-paced lifestyle of local people was extremely relaxing. Activities such as visiting a coconut candy workshop, tasting seasonal tropical fruits, and listening to traditional Southern Vietnamese folk music (Đờn ca tài tử) offered an authentic cultural experience. Lunch featured typical Mekong Delta dishes, well prepared and flavorful. Another memorable activity was rowing a traditional sampan through small canals, which brought a close-to-nature and tranquil feeling.

It was refreshing to step away from meetings and experience rural Vietnam for a day. The boat ride and garden visit offered a relaxing contrast to the busy city. The guide was professional and well-organized. Lunch was nicely arranged and suitable for international travelers. Overall, a productive yet relaxing way to balance work and leisure.

The itinerary was well-structured but not rushed, which allowed me to relax and observe local life. Cruising through the small canals surrounded by coconut trees felt very peaceful. The guide was attentive and shared interesting cultural stories along the way. Lunch was tasty and surprisingly filling for a day trip. I felt safe, comfortable, and welcomed throughout the tour.

5.00I had a really enjoyable experience on this Mekong Delta day tour. Everything was well organized, from the early pick-up in Ho Chi Minh City to the return in the late afternoon. Cruising on the Mekong River and exploring the small canals by rowing boat was peaceful and beautiful. I especially liked the fresh tropical fruits and the traditional folk music performance, which gave a nice insight into local culture. The lunch was delicious, and the scenery throughout the trip was relaxing. For the price, this tour offers great value and is highly recommended for a short getaway from the city.

5.00Mr. Hung Ngo took us on a great private tour of the Mekong River Delta area. This is our 2nd tour with Viet Kolors and Hung Ngo. We had such a good experience with Viet Kolors and Hung Ngo our previous private tour of Cu Chi tunnels we decided to cancel our other booking with another tour company for a Mekong River Delta private tour and book a new one with Hung. Hung is a very experienced tour guide with good knowledge of Vietnam. He’s super friendly and entertaining. We had a wonderful day with Hung and his driver and highly recommend him and Viet Kolors if you are seeking a fun and educational experience in South Vietnam.
