Wonderful experience exploring the Mekong River. Our tour guide, Ðúc, was funny, knowledgeable and very helpful throughout the entire 2 day tour.
Exploring the village on coconut island and riding through the canals was amazing. My highlight had to be walking through the local market in Can Tho located right next to the floating market.
The accommodations for the one night hotel stay was also very clean and close to the night markets in Can Tho. Fast WiFi was also a huge plus since I work remote.
Would recommend this tour to a friend and definitely ask for Ðúc.

We had two very eventful days! We experienced everyday life and Vietnamese culture up close and learned a lot. The food was super tasty and exceeded our expectations. Alex our guide and his trainee An speak great English and were always concerned about everyone's well-being. Alex creates an exuberant, great atmosphere with his guitar and his humor! We really grew together as a group over the two days. We would book the trip again at any time!

Riding the bicycle's through the village and floating down the small rivers in canoes. Visiting the floating markets on the water, incredible experience. Our tour guide was also very passionate about his job.

2 days with Justine on tour from Ho chi Min to delta of Mekong. It was good service and the guide take care of US, with many information, different stops, with safety and fresh comfort on board of minibus with small group (we dont like group over 20 persons). Eccellente tour guide, we recommend It again.

Great tour with Justin, I loved it! We did so many activities in two days:
* explore temples, the Mekong river and Islande
* learned about Vietnamese's culture and history
* cooking classes and tastings of multiple Vietnamese's delicacies
* nice activities like biking and canooing
* discover 2 différent type of market: typical land market and floating market
It was great and I was never bord! We were a small group of 11 people and Justin was very nice and educative.
The hotel we stayed in in Can Tho was much better than I was expertise.
Would totally recommend!

We really enjoyed the first day of our journey. Thuan was a friendly and informative guide. On day 2 the trip to the markets was disappointing. Most of the activity was finished before we got there.
