Overall a good service but could be made better

Lunch quality and quantity was not so good After spreading food on table , there was zero service. No attendant / Waiter came to see . They just forgot us. Restaurant could have been an AC restaurant We were there for one hr

Mekong premium boat trip

Was told pick up was 8.00am then they changed it to 7.25 am and to be there 10 mins early we did not mind that . Then they eventually pick us up at 8am. So 35 mins late ☹️☹️

Mekong Delta experience not to be missed

This tour was amazing. We did a little bit of everything to introduce us to life in the Mekong Delta. The guide was very knowledgeable and he made the trip so much fun. I learned so much about life in this part of Vietnam and was able to really step out of my comfort zone including holding bees, an anaconda and trying wine that had a cobra fermenting in it for 12 years!! Great experience.

Nice introduction to the Mekong Delta

The Mekong Delta is the most beautiful city in Ho Chi Minh City. We had a small group tour (max 12 people maae we wareb with 8), Everything was well arranged without feeling massive and the guide (Justin) was friendly and professional. The lunch was also very good and extensive compared to many other “set menu” lunches included in tours. If you really want to experience the Mekong Delta I would go for a longer stay, but to get an insight this is a great option. Also fun with children!
