A comfortable guided private trip down river on a small motor-powered wooden boat with a canopy to provide shelter from the sun (and rain if this happens). We made two stops, leaving the boat first to see how one of the families who still live and work on the river live their lives, and secondly we took a walk through a riverside village where families grow food and other crops to supplement their income. Finally, the driver/pilot took a turn into smaller canals to show us part of the maze of waterways around the delta. Throughout, our expert english-speaking guide Logan kept us informed about all the sights we were seeing and relevant history and culture. It really was great to chat as we travelled.

Very nice tour! Thinh took us through the delta and showed us local life during a brief walking part of the tour. He brought us fresh fruit and a nice boat. He was very helpful and explained us about the the daily life and in the Mekong Delta specifically. Would recommend!

Jane gave us a delightful, informed and laid back experience through the tiny side rivers of the Mekong Delta along with the competent old lady who was our driver. For those who are not in time for (or do not want to wake up in time for) the morning floating market tour, this is very much worth it. We started 2:30 and got back to land as the sun was setting.

A very good tour, make sure to do it early in the morning to actively experience the floating market. Very well run, definitely worth a trip.
