Sailboat and scooter tour through the Mekong - I had the most amazing morning tour with Mekong Zigzag tours. Dzung was lovely to spend time with and speak about North and South Vietnamese culture and customs. He took me on a sailboat tour through the peaceful canals surrounding his home and then a scooter tour through the hamlets outside of Ben Tre. It was a peaceful morning I hope to experience again in my life.

A must do tour! - Our tour guide An was amazing. We captured a real glimpse into the every day living of coconut farming life among the local people of Ben Tre. Even when it is hot it is cool riding on a motorbike amongst beautiful plantations. The boat ride was so picturesque and relaxing on bean bags! The food was exquisite, the markets were an eye opener and so clean. Thank you An for everything

Interesting and nice experience - I took the half day trip and it was such nice! We had a great time with An, we drow through the villages, islands, made a sugar cane and see the Locals and end it up with the sailing and very good lunch. An knows a lot so she always said something interesting. Really recommend! 🤩

Great unique experience! - We booked our half day tour the night before and we got an instant reply. An was our guide - my mom and me had her all to ourselves :) She showed us a coconut farm and had authentic lunch with an amazing view. We drove with the scooter through the Mekong village and our highlight was the private bout tour at the end of the day through a small Mekong river with jungle feeling. 10/10 can only recommend!

Unique and wonderful tour - Highlight of our trip so far. Wonderful boat trip down a quiet and beautiful section of river was a real privilege. Great boat was fun and contributed to some fantastic memories. The scooter tour was awesome as well. I loved being able to ride my own scooter and my son and wife (who was a bit nervous) really enjoyed it as well as pillions to some friendly and careful riders. Snacks and drink a yummy bonus. 100% recommend

Amazon day visiting Ben Tre area and the Mekong River's canals - We've booked our trip late in the evening and Zin replied directly. 🙂 He picked us up at our hotel and guided us thought the market and little streets in the country side. After a few minutes of driving he asked us if we wanted to drive the motorcycles for a little while 👌🏻 After visiting a coconut factory, tasted coconut on the streets and driving along the Mekong River, we've started or trip on the sailing boat. Zin let us drive the boat, cut bamboos and eat fresh fruits !! We ended our excursion with a candy tasting followed by a delicious meal 🍜 Zin is a lovely enthusiastic guide ! Thank you for the day ☀️

Unique Tour of Mekong Delta - It was such a great experience! Lunch was delicious and we got to explore the local area of Ben Tre via scooter. Also with southern Vietnamese hospitality, we visited one of our driver’s homes and got to harvest our own coconuts. The boat ride at the end was very relaxing. I think the only thing to keep in mind is when you go. The order of the itinerary looked like it was for the morning even though we booked the afternoon tour. Many places were also closed since there is a break period during the afternoon due to how hot it gets. Overall, an amazing and unique experience if you can get out to Ben Tre!
