5.00Ngan was an excellent tour guide. She was extremely attentive and very knowledgeable. Her English was nearly perfect. My daughters loved her. She was the highlight of our tour!! The tour itself was generally interesting. We came for a day trip from Saigon however and had to get picked up at 4am! The tour operator provided a travel service that was very helpful. In the end though, it was too long of a day. I did feel like the rice noodle factory was interesting but took way too long on the river to get to. The floating market was very interesting and we enjoyed all those stops and learning about its history. We didn’t get back to Saigon until close to 6! I would recommend this tour but be aware if trying to make this a day trip from Saigon.
