Wonderful trip in Southern Vietnam’s beautiful countryside

5.00The whole experience was amazing. Big shoutout to our guide, Thắm, who was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole tour. She taught us a lot about Vietnamese culture and gave us clear instructions regarding the local biosphere and fauna. The monkeys are indeed mischievous, but the guards do a great job at keeping the guests safe. The crocodile part was a little scary but interesting nonetheless. The lunch at the local resort was delicious and the seafood market was also very nice. Lastly, the little trip to the local fishermen’s community and the visit to their whale sanctuary was culturally significant and enriching. The transport was smooth and the bus was equipped with A/C (very much needed). Highly recommended!
Great tour and wonderful...
