Mekong delta small group tour - Varied tour with different stops.
Not too much time in bus or minivan, which is good!
Thumb was a good and energetic guide, thank you to him!
Coconut visit, bike on island, Mekong crossing were my favorites.
Biking on island could be a little longer!
The small trip on small boat with villagers, on a small canal - river, is really nice but the villagers can be heavy on tips demand...

Fantastic trip and well worth the price! - Very enjoyable and well worth the price! Wendy our guide was amazing and looked after us all so well. River canal ride was stunning. Lunch was so tasty and so much food. I don't eat fish which they did in wraps and they so kindly did chicken for me, I didn't ask they just did it, so thoughtful.
I would definitely recommend this trip

Great tour. Would recommend. - Great tour, would recommend. The small boat trip was lovely and there were lots of other interesting things to see too. We tried honey tea, ate some local fruits and heard some folk music, saw how coconut sweets were made, held a snake, rode bikes, had lunch (there was a vegetarian option) and visited a Pagoda. Very friendly and informative guide.

Nice getaway from hustle and bustle of Saigon - What a great trip with our very knowledgeable guide, Zayne. It was a perfect way to get away from the hustle and bustle of Saigon and enjoy some peace and calm in the countryside.
Four of us enjoyed the comforts of a private air-conditioned mini-bus for the 2-hour ride in each direction and Zayne shared much information about Saigon and the Mekong Delta. His English was excellent and he was very personable.
All parts of the day were interesting - from the honey tea, to learning about and tasting some local fruit, to a fabulous and very large lunch.
The boat ride up the Mekong provided welcome relief from the very hot day and the smaller boat ride down one of the canals was tranquil and zenlike.
Would definitely recommend!

Good Experience Overall - Everything as advertised. Lunch was included, and it was better than most meals I’ve experienced on similar trips. We did not feel that the Mekong Delta is beautiful, but the boat rides were fun, and the tour included several cultural experiences such as snake-wine tasting and the opportunity to hold a live boa and a bee-hive panel. Hotel pickup included for free if you’re staying in certain districts. Great deal for a fun day.

Lovely tour, beautiful location but very touristy and a lot of selling. - We had a lovely day, full of activites such as boat, a lot of tasting of locatl proudcts. But not stressful. The tour went smoothly and our guide, Layla, was good.
I have given 4 stars out of 5 just because I would have liked more information about the local culture and also because it was basically a food tour where they were selling local products like honey, rice cakes, coconut candies and it required a lot of tippings for shows and boat tour.
We arrived back at the hotel by 5pm, which was perfect.

Delta dayz - Interesting day and Alex our guide was most entertaining.
Not the type of tour I'd do again but it was a fun filled day.
Very commercial with lots of groups even though we were in a small group we were surrounded by many other peps, as to be expected.
Would love to have seen more of the Delta included in our tour.
