Amazing Tour - We had Alex as our guide. He’s fantastic. I would highly recommend requesting him if you can. The hotel was great. Also, try to make your way to the city center during the night for food and drink. Even with the early morning wake up, totally worth it.

Great experience with Justin as a guide! - This tour should be recommended if you want to understand Vietnam and people living here better. It is not only about the Mekong delta boat trip. It is about the life of people here. Coconut processing, rice noodle production and even bee keeping. Everything helps to immerse in the Vietnamese culture. The inclusion of a short countryside bicycle trip helped to see regular people's homes. The guidance of Justin was very professional with strategically timed remainders. Great job!

Good Tour with One Small Annoyance - This Mekong Delta Tour was good. Our guide was Phu. He was knowledgeable. There were alot of interesting experiences crammed into a short two days. The hotel accommodations were at Senior Hotel and they were good as well. The only part of the tour that was terrible was the bicycle ride on the island we visited. The bikes were very old, rusted and a few were not fit to ride. I ended up with the last bike. The pedals were bent and unsafe. As a result, I did not join the ride. It was just as well as others told me it was terrible hot and Phu pushed them to hurry through the ride. As a whole I would recommend this tour.

Awful trip and guide - Terrible experiences. Guide failed to take any care ,was always way out front, failed to advise on what we were seeing. All we got was mysogenistic speell. The boat trips were tourist traps expecting tips, not much local life was seen or understood.
