Hey Friends, Many thanks for your outstanding feedback. Countryside Adventures Team is trying our best to offer the Authentic Mekong Delta,Vietnam for those who love to Experience the Real Vietnam. All the best from Vietnam. Countryside Adventures Team.
We had a wonderful experience on the tour all thanks to our guide, Joe. From the moment the day started, everything felt authentic and thoughtfully planned, allowing us to see a side of the Mekong Delta that felt much more local and genuine than the typical tourist routes. The scenery was beautiful, and we especially enjoyed traveling through the quieter villages and canals. It was a great opportunity to experience everyday life in the delta and learn more about the local culture. Unfortunately, my husband became unwell during the tour, and we had to shorten our trip. And Joe was accommodating. Although we weren't able to complete the full itinerary, the time we spent on the tour was memorable and enjoyable. We would happily recommend this tour to anyone looking for a more authentic Mekong Delta experience.

Such a great day to end our Vietnam adventure as a family of 4! (14 and 13 year old children) . Lee our guide was amazing and we felt very safe and comfortable the whole day. The river boat ride and meeting the captains wife was a highlight. As was the bike tour and kayaking. We went through the villages and really felt like we were in real Vietnam! The people and children are so friendly and we loved every minute. Would highly recommended if you are a sporty family. It was super hot but we were well looked after with lots of breaks and refreshing food provided. Can't wait to come back so the long bike tours with Lee and the team!
Dear Family, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We’re really happy to hear your family had such a great day with Lee and enjoyed the boat ride, biking, and kayaking. It means a lot that you felt safe, comfortable, and got to experience the real Vietnam. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you all back again soon for more adventures! All the best from Vietnam. Countryside Adventures Team.
Just before TET New Year we had a great pleasure to take part in tour to the very heart of Mekong Delta. Our guide and driver Chau was very kind and helpul, so we didn't have to worry at all :-) It was the time with less tourists and more Vietnamese preparing for the feast week, so we had great opportunity to see the real life in the countryside. We took the boat to the floating market in Cai Be, then we went to one of the islands on the Mekong River, did some kayaking along canals where some fishermen were checking their nets and after all that water experience we made over 20 km by bike through narrow streets and paths in the neighbourhood of Cai Be. That was a fantastic day, although we were dead tired on the way back to Saigon.
Dear Family, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that you had such a memorable experience exploring the Mekong Delta with us, especially during the special time leading up to Tet New Year. It’s great that you could enjoy a more authentic side of local life with fewer tourists around. Chau will be very happy to know that his care and support made your journey comfortable and worry-free. Your adventure—from the floating market in Cai Be to kayaking along the canals and cycling through the countryside—sounds like a truly unforgettable day! We really appreciate you choosing us and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Vietnam in the future. All the best from Vietnam. Countryside Adventures Team.
This was quite a unique trip as I barely saw other tourists. It meant that we were off the beaten track! The tour operator had great communications, and reminded me where to meet and sent me photos after the tour. The trip started at 7am and finished at 6pm. We drove out to the Mekong river with a short coffee stopover. We then picked up our bike to cycle to the riverside. Hopped on a boat and got a great explanation of how the locals live off the river. We had a short excursion to a wet market. We then kayaked on a very peaceful strip of the river for an hour, with a short stop for fruits and water (or beer), before we kayaked some more. We got back to have some local snacks and cycled to lunch. Local lunch with such fresh food. Cycled to a temple and then back to the car. Everything was taken care of. I had a great time.

Wow what a brilliant final tour to end our trip. It was a long and varied day - we were picked up 7am and got back to hotel 6pm. We ended up with a private tour as no other tourists booked but it was absolutely worth the money. Quang our guide was exceptional - very engaging and knowledgeable made the whole experience very enjoyable. Uc our driver did a great job navigating the traffic and getting us between activities on time and with all relevant equipment. We explored local markets, drove a boat along Mekong delta , Kayaked through quiet waterways, cycled through picturesque villages and enjoyed delicious local food and variety of cold drinks
Hello Friends, Thank you very much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring the Mekong and the local villages away from the typical tourist routes. The combination of kayaking on the river and cycling through the countryside is exactly the kind of authentic experience we hope our guests will enjoy. A special thank you as well for your kind words about Quang — we will be sure to pass along your compliments! He will be very happy to hear that you appreciated his friendliness and knowledge. We’re also glad you enjoyed the lunch, fresh fruit, and drinks, and that you had the chance to experience a place loved by locals. Supporting the local community is very important to us, so it means a lot that you mentioned it. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again for another fun and adventurous day in the Mekong! All the best from Vietnam. Countryside Adventures Team.
What an amazing time we both had. Chau was a fantastic guide who chatted a long the way. After a morning of cycling we were heading for a spot of canoeing, but the heat of the sun sapped our energy. Thankfully Chau took pity on is and let us opt for a lovely shaded boat trip. The captain even let us have a go at driving the boat. Highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting HCMC

We’re especially glad you had the chance to try driving the boat — such a fun experience! Your kind recommendation truly means a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! 🚴♂️🚤 All the best from Vietnam. Countryside Adventures Team.
