Amazing trip with Lana! - Definitely an unseen tour to be seen. Our small group was taken on a very intimate journey through dragon fruit factories, caught ferries to coconut islands, rode on mopeds through the forest, glided through the Mekong on a local sampan (think canoe) and cruised amongst the coconut canals.
Definitely recommend - we saw no other tourists and our guide Lana was all smiles and information!

Great value day out with Thao! - This was a fantastic day out, away from Saigon with a very friendly and knowledgeable guide with excellent English! So much is included in the price - a/c transfer, riding on the back of a scooter, ferry crossings, a boat, coconut and dragon fruit tasting - all topped off with a delicious meal in a local village. Would recommend!

Go Cong - non-tourist Delta Mekong day tour - We booked the tour through our hotel, we chose it for the different program from all the others: An authentic experience in a non-touristy island of Delta Mekong, and the expectation was largely met. The tour was for a maximum of 10 people but we were only two couples, so almost a private tour and without stops or toilet stops in places to buy souvenirs.
We toured among local families who showed us how they work and produce brooms, roofs and work coconuts, accompanied by scooter until delicious lunch.
The guide, Lana, was very good for preparation and explanations given, passionate and very attentive to everyone's needs, with excellent English.

Great! - We had a great experience by joining a small group tour to Mekong Delta Ben Tre area. We visited a brick business, then a coconut farm, then a enjoyable bike hike to the restaurant in the middle of the countryside near Mekong river. Maybe the only flaw was the poor lunch, but at least I learnt hot to prepare fresh rolls with Vietnamese food! A special thank to our guide Vin, speaking a fluent English, always smiling and very knowledgeable!
