definitely a decision worth its weight in gold! - This tour was an unforgettable adventure that I’ll remember for year. Gliding through the mangroves with the sun shining down, surrounded by the sounds of nature, was truly peaceful. The highlight came when we encountered vibrantly we spotted a group of playful monkeys swinging between the branches, their curiosity just as strong as ours.. Our guide was knowledgeable and ensured everyone was engaged, explaining the ecosystem in a way that captivated both adults and children alike. The guide’s expertise and friendly demeanor made the tour even more captivating..It’s not just a simple excursion, but a must-do for anyone seeking a unique and enriching experience while visiting HCM City.

This was by far the best experience we had in HCMC - The tour due to the small group size, and our guide was incredible-fluent in English, funny, and friendly. We learned so much about Vietnamese culture, the environment, and daily life. The crocodile encounter was unforgettable, and having lunch on the farm was a once-in-a-lifetime moment. The driver was friendly, and the boat ride, with its cooling breeze, added to the magical atmosphere. It was truly one of the highlights of our trip, far from the usual tourist crowds.

Great tour guide , amazing trip - The guide was reasonably friendly and spoke English fluently, so if the traveler can only speak English, it will be a very meaningful trip. It was my first time touring Monkey Island and it was a very amazing experience. The food was so delicious that I ate twice. It was a very satisfying trip.Can gio tour was impressive. It was more fun because many people went there. Especially the Mangrove Forest was good. Our guide was kind and fun.Highly recommended

Great Can Gio Monkey Tour - Our guide, Duckie, was cheerful and informative and made sure we had a great time. There are a large amount of monkeys, a lot with babies and you can hand feed them which was a highlight for us. A wonderful lunch was also included at a peaceful beach location.

Great day trip to take - I really enjoyed this tour. It was nice getting to be with the wildlife and learning more about the Vietnam War along the way. Particularly enjoyed the final stop in Can Gio to enjoy some iced coffee at the beach. Kudos to Harry for being a great guide too. Anyone doing this tour should be warned, the monkeys will take any loose items on you

Enjoyable enough day out - The bus ride was quite long but it was fun driving onto the ferry to get across to the island. The best part was the forest itself as it is quite unique. The rest was just ok.

good activities but was rushed - Activities were good but i felt rushed during the visit to the forrest, time with monkeys, and the crocodile. We were back at the city more than 1hr ahead of schedule. Should have spent more time in the activities. moe time spent on the bus

Great guide but the rest is probably average - I first of all have to say we had a guide called Phil, he was brilliant, funny, charismatic and just lovely to be around, hence the 4 stars. The tour not so brilliant...Monkey island is good if you've not experienced monkeys before, they are in a natural environment, they are cheeky and cute and mischievous. The crocodile farm was underwhelming, with just a view deck, little information on them and not much else, though again we saw a few in their natural habitat, it just wasn't much of a "tour". The mangrove forest, unfortunately there is little to again report, I've done this in other countries where the mangroves look healthier and full of life, whilst here they all just felt a little sad. We had paid to have a boat back through the mangroves included but the guide had not been informed and we didn't want to pay extra for a boat ride so we had to walk the same 2k route back in high humidity 🥵 (currently awaiting a refund for this part of the tour). The lunch/food included was also not very good, it was a little bit sad again, felt like a ghost hotel and the beach was covered in litter. All in all, great guide but lacking in content.

Decent - the guide was incredibly nice and good at explaining, but felt over half of the trip we were just supposed to relax instead of experiencing something. liked the monkey forest and the whole experience there but the rest was a waste of time and money

A tour guide and group either makes the experience or ruins it! - I’m sorry to possibly be the first low star review but this tour wasn’t all that. The other reviews do not reflect our experience. And a lot of the pics do not reflect what we saw either….. We had a chaperone NOT a tour guide. I kept walking over to another group where the tour guide was actually engaging, involving his group, giving informative talks about the areas etc. Our guy took us to a destination, walked off, sat to the side and said “go explore” see you at this time. It’s like he didn’t care. He wasn’t the kind of a tour guide like we’ve been used to traveling Vietman and Cambodia. Another thing was, our group was a very old group. We’re two lads in our mid thirties. Our guide went to the pace of the 60yr / 70yrs olds. They practically skipped the monkeys and went straight back to the bus because they were scared or tired. Therefore our guide was rushing us to get back to the bus so they weren’t waiting long. We didn’t have any real good amount of time with the monkeys or crocs. To go 2hrs 30mins to get there and be there for such a small amount of time was extremely disappointing. The other tour guides group (I kept going over to) was getting his group involved, was fun, had the monkeys climbing all over his group. There was laughter. There was enjoyment. Because of him I was able to get some amazing pics with the monkeys. I’m thankful to that guy! Again being with an old group it’s also like they had precedence over all choices made on this trip. Which in turn ruined our experience because the 60 / 70 year olds wanted to sit more than explore. We were at a restaurant (after lunch had been consumed) sitting around doing absolutely nothing, longer than being at the island….. It was as if we didn’t pay the same amount to be there because our time/ experience wasn’t considered like the older folks were. Overall, the monkeys climbing on you was worth it. A tour guide either makes the experience or ruins it. After lunch the coffee stop was pointless, we just had lunch with tea and juices. The beach in front of coffee shop was dirty and full of trash. Just a bit of a super disappointing experience for 4hrs / 5hrs total of bus traveling to and from. Note to self - pay a little extra for private tours. You never know the type of group you’ll be with and the guide will be way more engaging and informative!
