Absolute highlight tour on the Mekong

5.00We had a very varied and interactive excursion that took us from the Floating Market, through a rice noodle factory, through picturesque canals and finally to a cocoa farm where we could trace the whole process of traditional chocolate making. We were accompanied by Mai, who did her job wonderfully and introduced us very lovably not only to the individual stops on the tour, but also to life and culture in the Delta.
Great tour with Tammy

5.00We experienced a wonderful biking tour with Thuy yesterday. It felt very authentic to explore the landscape by bike under her guidance, listening to her stories about the village during our stops. Along the way, we met locals and enjoyed drinks and fresh fruit, which made the experience even more special. Today, we did the Floating Market Tour with Clara and her driver, and it was absolutely outstanding. Clara is a fantastic guide with great experience and an excellent sense for her audience. She showed us places and scenery we never would have discovered on our own. Her way of sharing local stories and insights made the tour truly memorable.

5.00It was my first time ever visiting Vietnam and signing up for this tour was easily the best decision I’ve made. Our guide, Mariah, is fluent in English and knowledgeable about the tour because she grew up in Can Tho. She is thoughtful about the details and shares with a lot of zest for the province’s culture and tourism (good energy!). I learned so much in a short time, and bought unique souvenirs (cocoa produce, rice noodles) from the organic farms we visited during the tour. This is truly a great way to see and experience Can Tho as a local. I wouldn’t have appreciated the place as much if not for this tour.
