The Mangrove Monkey Island is a truly unique experience! Get up close and personal with lively monkeys, admire the mangrove ecosystem, breathe in the fresh air, and relax in a soothing atmosphere. It's definitely worth a visit.I recommend this for those who want to have a unique experience in Ho Chi Minh City! Since it's a city, there's not much to do, but it's a great experience to go to the outskirts to see monkeys and go trekking. The guide is also friendly and explains everything in English easily, so you can learn about Vietnamese history. The guide is amazing
It was the best trip ever. Even though I booked it last minute the night before, they picked me up from my hotel right on time in the morning. I was grateful for the consistently kind explanations delivered with a smile. I also really enjoyed the meals provided on the tour. If I have the chance in the future, I would like to book other tours as well.

This tour is highly recommended. Our guide, Terry, was very friendly. He bought snacks for the monkeys and placed them in our hands, encouraging the monkeys to come closer so we could take some great pictures. I personally love monkeys, and being so close to them was an amazing experience.
Wonderful day trip can gio tour .The tourguide is very welcoming and helpful regarding translations when we were buying food and other things. The trivias mentioned during the trip is informative. Overall, we enjoyed the tour so much. Will definitely recommend! Beautiful scenery
The tour was very fun. Highlights of Ho Chi Minh day trip.Phu was exceptional guide, extra caring and ready to explain, help and share a smile! I loved and enjoyed each moment of the day, the food and even if it was an hot day, everything was ok and not too much to handle. 5 stars for me!
Complete scam. We paid a lot of money for a small (guaranteed fewer than 15) guided trip through the Delta including rowing boats, collection and drop off from hotel etc. Communication was poor before the trip. The pick up time was ambiguous and checking the day before just gave us a third different answer. We were picked up and bundled into a taxi by a lady who didn't speak English and was unable to tell us where we were going. We didn't travel far by taxi before joining a big group. 25 people in one bus + another smaller bus was also with us. The itinerary bore no relation to what we had booked and paid and was actually advertised at 300k Dong rather than the more than 1,000,000 Dong that we had paid. We didn't see the delta, spent just 5 mins on a boat and no rowing as booked at all. On the way back the bus declared they didn't want to drop us back to our hotel - as booked & paid - rather we were 'kicked out' somewhere completely different to find our own way back. All super disappointing.
The tour was great. The lunch was fantastic. The tour guide was awesome. The monkeys were also very well behaved. I don't think the explanation is exactly right though concerning the boat. The explanation on Trip Advisor says, non motorized and it was a motorized boat so the time on the water went really fast and I wished that could have been a bit longer. Besides that great trip. You are in good hands. What it says online concerning boat: "Continue in a small, non-motorized rowing boat that’s ideal for navigating the Delta’s winding canals, where you’ll get a glimpse of the traditional houses that cluster at the edge of the water."
I didn’t like the fact that no one got in touch with me regarding the tour. I reported at the pickup place at 7 but had to call a US number to know why nobody is picking me up or calling me till 7:40 I had to pay for the international call, the local number given on my ticket wasn’t in service. Then the tour guide texted me n finally picked us up at 8am, till then I was anxious without communication Our tour guide wasn’t much of a help in explaining things in English, may be he was good in Vietnamese
