The tour was really great! The guide accompanied us and explained every moment of the experience. From the market to the factory visit, including the canals, the floating restaurant, and the fruit farm, everything was perfect. The boat was also great.
Quan was wonderful he met us at our hotel and walked us to our meeting point. He answered every question we had. Gave us a very knowledgeable tour of the culture and enriched lifestyles that I have never experienced. This is a must do! If you are not going to walk or drive into the rural parts of Vietnam, you will get a snippet into their lives. Vietnam is nothing as people expect. It is so much more and upcoming. You will experience wonderful people that will embrace and take care of everything you need. Food is wonderful and still there are plenty of Western foods such as pizza, burgers, and fried chicken for my kids when needed.
Highly recommend. Such a beautiful Mekong experience. Our guide Kim Ngan was truly excellent: sweet, polite, intelligent, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. You could feel how much care she puts into sharing the culture and history of the region. Her colleague on the wooden boat tour who was also sooo sweet and kind. The whole experience felt warm, authentic, and we were well taken care of from beginning to end.
A great tour with our guid Pi. Explained everything great. Very committed smart and funny. A great experience. Be sure to do it! 😁
Ngen is super friendly and speaks fantastic English. She tells us a lot about the surroundings and history of the area.
Thinh was a great guide and told us the story about the floating market and the origin of rice noodles. It was a super interesting day
The Can Tho Floating Market and Garden tour gave us a lively glimpse into Mekong Delta life, with a busy morning boat market where we bought fresh fruit from the boats. After Seeing how fresh noodles Hủ Tiếu is made, we happily gobbled down delicious noodle soup sold from one of the boats. The experience was perfectly balanced by the peaceful charm of the fruit gardens - enjoying tea, fresh fruit and karaoke —an authentic and memorable experience. The 6am start was early, but well worth waking up for. The tour guide we had was Mr Hiền who spoke both English and Vietnamese, he was knowledgeable, kind and helpful. Thank you Mr Hiển for a wonderful tour.
Great tour and wonderful tour guide!

My husband and i just returned from a tour with Pi today, she was lovely and very knowledgeable. We learnt a lot about the Mei Kong delta and every day life of the locals. The tour started at 6 am and just ended at about 1 pm. The pho we ate for breakfast on board was delicious, tasty fruit from the fruit garden and cacao. This tour was very different from anything that I've ever done before. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a new experience.
