Amazing Tour to Mekong Delta - With our three young children, we have just taken their Mekong Day Trip, in April 2024. We had a super time and were well looked after by SST and their office team both when we booked and on the day. The tour itinerary was quite fast paced, which worked for us and our three under elevens, particularly as we only had limited time in HCM. The English speaking guide was good and friendly to us and our children and they enjoyed the opportunity to take bee honey, sample the fruits and of course enjoy the slow boat ride . The lunch was superb, a lot of food to eat. Overall I would thoroughly recommend SST, entirely what I had hoped for with a tour such as this.

The whole family was very satisfied! - It was a tour with 13 people, 70% of whom were Japanese, and the guide was fluent in English, Vietnamese, and Japanese, and the local explanations were easy to understand. The tour included lunch, boat ride, tuk tuk, and coconut juice, making it a great value. When I booked the tour, I had to rush in at the last minute, but I am grateful to the staff member, Mia, for her thorough explanation. I would like to take another tour when I go to Ho Chi Minh.

Mekong Tour - the experience is superb!! Vy was so accommodating. She really makes sure that we are enjoying the tour and she really did her best to show and make us appreciate the tour. She also makes us try some delicacy and she did not disappoint us! Every food/candy we tried tastes good!! Definitely worth recommending

A fantastical world where you can enjoy something out of the ordinary! - It was a wonderful tour. The course was sophisticated and designed so that tourists would not get bored. The staff were also cheerful and polite, even before the tour, and made it possible to keep in touch via LINE. Those who are not good at English may be worried, but the support is safe and secure, so I highly recommend it. The tour guide was attentive from start to finish, and we had a great time. I would like to use SST TRAVEL again next time.

Well Organised. - Great experience! The guide does his best to make sure everyone is taken care of, not left behind, and that nothing gets lost. Gave 4/5 stars because everything is a bit “packaged” and “very turisty” but I reckon thi is the only way it could work with groups of 20+ people.
