Spectacular.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We did the excursion with Vietnam Adventure Tours, and it was a very complete and well-organized experience. Everything went as planned, and we were able to see incredible places. The best part was undoubtedly our guide Alex, who was very attentive, friendly, and always ensuring that the entire group was comfortable. He explains very well and makes the tour much more interesting. I totally recommend this excursion, especially if you have the luck to go with Alex.

Perfect overnight trip to the Mekong Delta from HCMC

Excellent two day trip from HCMC. Loved the time on the river, meeting local people and learning along the way. Sounds like the floating markets are not going to be around forever so highly recommend this excursion- especially experiencing the sunrise one the way to the floating markets.

Great 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Great excursion, very well organized. Our jack guide was great: nice, always smiling, humorous and above all shared the customs and habits of his wonderful country. Thanks also to our driver who was perfect and very pleasant. Activities (cooking, bicycles...), visits (floating market, pasta making, coconut plantation, beekeeper...) everything was very well thought out and organized. And as a bonus a superb hotel with a very nice room and great service. I recommend ++++ Again thank you to Jack and our driver for his incredible discoveries and memories in their company.
