Adventurous Mekong Scooter Tour: A Day of Local Flavors and Exploration - This was an excellent tour :) You're literally zigzagging through the countryside on a scooter. We made several stops to eat, drink, explore, and rest. My opinion on this tour is that it is for travelers who are adventurous and comfortable on a scooter all day, while tasting local foods and drinks. This tour is not for those who prefer an organized air-conditioned bus type of tour. All stops were great/informative, but we only did a quick drive through of the market with all the meat, and would have preferred a walk-through to see more. Linh was our guide and she is very knowledgeable about the Mekong area, and super sweet! She also helped us to book our overnight homestay while in Ben Tre, and also arranged our pickup and drop off from the local bus station (we took a bus from/to Ho Chi Minh). She will also kindly take photos and videos for you to share later. By 3pm, the tour was starting to feel a little long (maybe because of the heat outside), but overall, we really appreciated hospitality of the locals and highly recommend this tour! Tips: bring water, a rag to wipe your sweat, comfortable clothing and footwear, sunglasses.

Fabulous tour in Ben Tre! - We did two tours in Ben Tre, and Mekong zig zag was by far the best! We saw so much of the local life in Ben Tre, zooming around on motorcycles. It was hot, but the motorcycles made touring around much more comfortable. Our guide A was fabulous and navigated the tiny roads effortlessly. Lunch was at the Ba Damh Homestay, and it was fabulous. ( We booked to also stay overnight at the homestay and it is such a beautiful place ). Our previous tour had a hand rowed Sampian, and I thought the Mekong zigzag sailboat would be just ‘ok’. Honestly it was a spectacular experience—the river they took us on was beyond stunning. The sailboat was so comfy with the bean bag chairs. This tour was 10/10 for us. Thank you An!

Amazing dive into the culture - Amazing trip. Perfectly organized. The drive through the villages, seeing local life was accompanied by a lovely guide answering all questions and enriching the experience. Lunch and coconut candies were so tasty 😋 will come back for more. The best part was our guide An, she is super friendly and would take amazing care of us, replying to all questions. She also takes nice photos!!!

An unforgettable day in the Mekong Delta - I recommend the tour 100%!!! I don't think you'll find anything comparable in Ben Tre and the Mekong Delta. The day was beautiful and packed with unique experiences. You ride a scooter through the beautiful landscape (real fun), learn about the life of the locals and in the region, and take a wonderful boat tour over the canals. At the end of the day we went to the market in Ben Tre and tried some street food. It was a really lovely and fun day with Zen and An. Thanks a lot!

How we experienced Ben Tre at 100% - The whole day was full of pleasant surprises and experiences. Through a coconut farm, crossing the river by ferry, demonstration of coconut jelly production, candy production, demonstrations of sugar cane pressing. Tasting local specialties, including the evening's fantastic herb pancakes in Ben Tre. A pleasant guide who fulfilled all our wishes, even the unspoken ones. The boat ride was the cherry on top of the whole trip. Loads of local specialties, lots of useful information about vegetables, fruits and food... I'm more of a remcal, but I recommend this. We felt very good. We discovered places we wouldn't have found otherwise.

An active day in the Mekong Delta - A full day's program. We were on a coconut farm, in a private house, on a boat - a Mekong cruise. There was a lot of great food and drink.
