Excellent Guide and Overall Experience - The floating market was a very special experience. Our guide Nguyen was super friendly and considerate. He was very attentive to all of our personal needs and was a great conversationalist (his English was excellent). We learnt a lot about the history of the floating market and Can Tho in general. I really enjoyed making rice noodles and eating breakfast on the boat. Would definitely recommend!

Boat trip - A fun boat trip with a good explanation from our guide Tien about the operation of the floating wholesale market. Then visited a rice paper factory. And got a nice explanation how they make it and of course color and cut into noodles. Nobody was pushy, so I think that's great.

Unforgettable Private Tours out of Cần Thơ - Paired this tour in the morning with a second one in Hậu Giang. Mekong Smile did a great job customizing the two experiences into a single adventure. Jimmy was a wonderful, knowledgeable tour guide giving us lots of insight into the nature and culture of the Mekong Delta. The private tours felt intimate and tailored specifically to our needs — we weren’t rushed around and given ample time to explore and enjoy the food and drink.

Great daytrip to Mekong - We had a really great tour with Tom from early morning till noon and saw the spectacular Mekong, the floating markets, a cocoa farm and a beautiful fruit garden.
