Mekong River Tour - The day was amazing. We got picked up from our hotel on time, and were taken to the Mekong. The day was action filled, and we had a great day. Phu was an amazing tour guide. He was informative and kept us to schedule, meaning we got back to the hotel on time. It was a really great day. Would highly recommend!!

Happy wine tour - Boa was a fantastic guide. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. The cruise was a great way to see the delta. The stops along the way were a lovely way to get a taste of the region.

Highly recommended! - This company was excellent- we did the small group Mekong Delta and Cu Chi tunnels tour with them and both tours were exactly as described and the guides were superb.

Thank God for our guide Lucky!! - My wife and I joined this day tour and the experience left us quite disappointed. Our tour guide Lucky was the only reason why I give a 3-star rating - he made today fantastic! He picked us up from our hotel and then gave us a fun introduction to Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta. He is a really informative, funny, kind and enthusiastic guide and we had a lot of fun with him. The tour itself though was a real let down. Our first stop was a relatively modern Mahayana Buddhist temple complex which is interesting but not a unique experience if you have visited one before. Lucky was again fantastic and explained the cultural importance of Buddhism to the Vietnamese and to the community. We then went to the docks to board the boat and continue the tour at a bee pollen farm, coconut farm, tropical fruit farm with a music performance (including “If you’re happy and you know it”) sampan ride and then lunch. These were all tourist traps designed to extract tips or make you buy something. Such a disappointment compared to other tours we have done in northern and central Vietnam. Again, Lucky was the star today and made the tour fun!
