Great, varied tour, absolutely recommended - Our guide Trinh made the tour a very special experience for us! The program items corresponded exactly to the descriptions, first we saw a beautiful sunrise, then we went to the floating market, which I found totally fascinating. Here we had a delicious, typical Vietnamese breakfast and then even a stop on one of the sellers' boats, where we were able to try super tasty pineapples. Next we went to the rice noodle factory, where we could see how rice noodles are made by hand. The last stop included a short hike to the cocoa plantation. On the way, Trinh showed us lots of different plants and explained a few things. In the cocoa plantation, the owner himself told us how he makes cocoa and chocolate by hand. At the end we had a very tasty cup of cocoa before we went back to the boat and the hotel. Trinh was really great, she is very warm, told us so much and answered all our questions and gave us enough time to explore everything without rushing us, as was often the case on other tours. We can absolutely recommend this tour with Trinh :)

Boat tour with Trinh - That was a beautiful tour! Trinh, our guide was so friendly. We did the private tour with 4 people and loved it. We started with the beautiful sunrise, after we drove to the floating market and had a nice, local breakfast on the boat. Then we drove to noodle fabric and a cacao farm. It was a perfect tour! Thanks to Trinh and and our nice boat driver!!!

Nice trip with great guide - Alex was a great guide. Her English was perfect and she gave us a lot of information. She was even open to discuss controversial topics with us, which was very interesting. She also helped us a lot with further planning our trip, like transportation options etc. The trip was also great. However, I think the ride to the sunset was not really necessary. We could have started to the market directly. Also the market was not as special as I thought. Still, the breakfast was great and Alex bought us a lot of extra typical food.

Amazing experience! - We made the tour with Trinh and had a really special and wonderful time! The floating markets were an unique experience and we had the chance to eat typical food and drink vietnamese coffee in the boat. Trinh was explaining everything and answered all our questions in a really lovely way. After the floating markets, we've visited a noodle factory and had a walk in the nature. Trinh showed us the vietnamese world of fruits, this was so fascinating! At the end we visited also a Cacao farm...we've really enjoyed the day and want to say thank you to Trinh! :)

Good trip - Charlie collected us from our hotel, by the river, at 5.30. Within 5 minutes we were on the river heading out to see sunrise with the new bridge as a backdrop. Then over to the floating market, traditional Viet breakfast served from an adjacent boat was a visual and culinary treat, while another small boat served coffee. The market itself interesting but felt slightly contrived to us. Then onto some smaller canals, noodle factory, cacao and chocolate production ( both on a tiny scale) a walk with a knowledgeable Charlie on fruits and a visit to a Buddhist temple. Then back, good tour the time on the river watch life, and river hyacinths float by was brilliant.

Amazing Mekong Delta tour guide - We are a group of three boys from Germany travelling Thailand and Vietnam and Ms An has definitely been the best tourguide we ever had. She was incredibly gentle, helpful, polite and professional! She included explanations and little details into the tour that wouldn't have been necessary but made the tour even better and more interesting. We got insight Info local Shops and the everyday life in Vietnam. Her english is also very good. We definitely recommend her as a tour guide if you are planning to book a tour!

Nice but next time with a different guide, boat and time - We were picked up late (at 6am) so the sunrise was already over. We arrived at the market at 8, so quite late. Our boat was quite slow compared to the others. Our guide explained everything to us. We didn’t like that he tried to flirt with us at the beginning and made a very inappropriate comment on Hitler (we are Germans). The Mekong delta was nice to see. Also the everyday life on the River. It’s a lot to see and taste on that too.

Don't waste your time - What a desappointment !!!! Shabby floating market on a mekong where lots of trash floats. A few restaurants on the water which are more like tourist traps. I gave one star because I couldn't give 0. In short, don't waste your time and money!!
