Mekong Cai Be Floating Market Tour - Luc was prompt, very knowledgeable and very courteous. He provided a lot of information on the history of Vietnam. We got to learn how to make spring rolls and crispy pancakes, which was then part of our lunch. At one point, because our boat was stuck in water hyacinths, he helped to free the boat. Luc told us of activities we may be interested in while we were in Ho Chi Minh City. He was exceptionally kind and we highly recommend him as a guide for others.

Mekong Delta - One great tour for one day getaway in the farms.l and enjoying real vietbamese culture. The guide was friendly and sharing a lot of info about the places. This is not for relax, you will be biking, walking, kayaking so be ready to enjoy.

Best Private tour of my trip - This was the best tour of my 10 day trip to Vietnam. Bruce was an outstanding guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly, spoke English very well and showed us the best time. I recommend this trip with Bruce to anyone visiting Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon).

EXCELLENT PRIVATE TOUR - Had the pleasure of touring the Mekong River with Bruce last month while in Vietnam. This tour may cost a bit more than others but it is well worth it. Bruce did an excellent job in maximizing our time on the tour and making sure he took us where I wanted to go. (The Vietnamese lunch was amazing). Bruce is professional, very knowledgeable and quite personable. His English skills are also excellent. I highly recommend this tour to anybody considering a one day tour of the Mekong Delta - worth every dollar!

Awesome Tour! - This was a great one day tour of the Mekong Delta. We were able to take a tour of the Mekong river by boat, experience the floating market, see the culture of the local people, ride bikes around town, and eat delicious food. Bruce was an outstanding tour guide. Not only was he knowledgeable about the Mekong Delta and the floating market, but he was knowledgeable about the country of Vietnam in general. He spoke clearly, made us all feel comfortable, and answered all of our questions. He was a true professional and clearly loves his job. Highly recommend the tour if you want to see the Mekong river/delta up close and personal!

A great day seeing many different aspects of life on the Mekong - Well worth the extra cost of a private tour for the pleasure of spending the day with fabulous tour guide Bruce and learning so much about the region and the people in a full day of activities and cultural experiences.

A Wasted Day - As Gomer Pyle used to say" Surprise, surprise, surprise!!" Well, my surprise and that of many others is that THERE IS NO FLOATING MARKET AT CAN BE!!!!! Yet Trip Advisor continues to offer advertising slots to Can Be Floating markets. The date is 30th March 2023. I arrived home yesterday after touring Can Be on the 27th February, 2023. What a wasted day out of our lives that will never be be regained. More on that day later..... DON'T GO TO "CAN BE" TO VISIT THE FLOATING MARKETS. THEY HAVE RELOCATED TO THE NORTH OF HCMC.
