What a great day. Tri brought us to the Mekong Delta and we had the best time. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. We tried fresh chocolate, made our own traditional food, and even biked around the small villages. Highly recommend!

Kayaking was our favourite part of the trip. It was amazing. Lynda was a very good tour guide. She discribed a lot of information about Vietnam & the culture.

Had an amazing time on this trip. Made all the more interesting with Tommy our lovely guide who not only kept us entertained with his humour but was also very knowledgeable with historical facts. The weather was perfect, no rain and temperature wasn't too hot. The food we ate was delicious, the boat journey a dream and as we were such a small group (only 3 of us) very friendly. Tommy made sure we had plenty of water to drink and if it had been needed - a rain mac. All in all a very memorable day and would definitely recommend this trip and this company.97mayankg

This is a small glimpse of the area. I you have more time, do a multi-day tour, because the 5 hrs of driving is not worth the small view of the Mekong area you get. Our tour guide (Van) was fantastic though.
