Breathtaking nature scenery in Can Tho - Our group had an amazing time touring the nature reserve. Our boat driver did an amazing job as well, taking the time to point out different plants, animals, and fruits of interest along the way. The scenery was absolutely beautiful and was away from major crowds, making the nature around you feel all the more impactful. I’d highly recommend this tour, it was a definite highlight of our trip!

Amazing hidden gem - We visited these lovely places in the morning. The natural beauty of these places was brought to life by our knowledgeable and friendly local guide Tien. If you're visiting Can Tho definitely recommend this hidden none tourist gem!

Absolute fantastic trip with V - Had an absolutely fantastic time on this day trip with V! Everything was well-organized, and V was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about everything even we were just passing by. V and the driver went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable and that we didn't miss any of the 'hidden gems.' This experience is highly recommended.

If you want a peaceful, green protected wildlife area this is it - We loved this experience! Nghi our driver was great and dropped us off at the boat station where our boat driver took us down stream. He didn’t speak much English but still showed up the beehive and so many different species of bird and pink snails!
Not super touristy and great to get off the beaten track a bit.

Great value boat and hike trip - A beautiful boat trip and walk back - definitely one of the best things to do around Can Tho! Our driver Nghi was great to chat with on the journey there (around 45 mins each way) and we spent about 2 hours at the site. In the afternoon slot they expected to see less birds before 5pm, but we saw loads so must have been lucky! Good value and hardly anyone else about so ideal for bird spotting.

Great service, great tour - The tour and especially the transfers booked with Local Mint Travel to the Mekong Delta were very well organized. Phuong Minh has always responded very quickly and advised us well. The boat tour was very nice and our guide Tien told us a lot about the Delta and Vietnam.

Great experience with a vision of a young Vietnamese girl - Doan accompanied us from our hotel to the end, nothing to manage, she has a lot of discussions and answers all our questions about her country, her region, her life as a young Vietnamese. A cultural tour just before the nature park, where we observed plenty of birds at sunset. A sincere young woman, thank you to her.
