From Ho Chi Minh: Mekong Delta & Vinh Trang Pagoda Day Tour

Our trip was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Everything went so smoothly, and we had Jason as our guide who we can thank for that. He made sure to take plenty of photos for us all to enjoy, and if we had any questions about anything at all, he was happy to answer them. The bus we were on was comfortable, and there were plenty of toilet and refreshment breaks. The first stop was at the oldest Pagoda in Vietnam, and a giant Buddha- very interesting! we weren’t here for too long, as we had exciting things ahead. We got on a boat and headed to the islands, where we saw lots of animals such as bees, snakes, crocodiles, fish and frogs. We tried tasty treats like honey tea, dried banana, sweets and ‘happy water’- got to see how they’re made! The Mekong river boat was lovely and the lunch we were fed was delicious. We even got some entertainment on the boat back, because some fellow group members sang for us. Overall, we would highly recommend this tour to anyone!

I truly enjoyed this tour, and Jack the tour guide was excellent! He had all types of facts to share with us, important facts, side facts, fun facts all about the Mekong Delta river and pretty much Vietnam’s history in general. The tour package just had the right amount of activity. It wasn’t too tiring as it wasn’t boring either. Everyone in the tour seemed to enjoy.

Our family had a fantastic experience on the Mekong Delta Day Tour. The booking process was very convenient and smooth. We visited the beautiful Vinh Trang Pagoda and had so much fun exploring Unicorn Island and the Ben Tre River was relaxing and scenic. We also enjoyed fruit tasting, coconut candy making, honey bee tea tasting, and watching how pop rice is made; such a fun way to experience the island’s local delicacies and culture. But the highlight of our trip was definitely our amazing English-speaking tour guide, Mr. Tibiet. He truly deserves special recognition Mr. Tibiet was extremely helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and very funny. He made sure everyone in the group was comfortable, well-informed, and enjoying every moment of the tour. His positive energy and sense of humor made the whole experience even more memorable. Not only is he handsome, but he is also very dedicated and professional guide who clearly loves what he does. He truly made this tour exceptional. Thumbs Up!

Had a wonderful experience overall! Our guide, Caroline, contacted us the night before the tour and was friendly, & informative from the very beginning. Throughout the tour, she did an excellent job explaining the stories and history behind each island we visited. She was full of energy and made the experience enjoyable. Great job, Caroline! The driver was also efficient, we felt safe. The only area I would suggest for improvement is the seating arrangement. It would be great if the company could keep track of the number of passengers and ensure that everyone has a comfortable seat. Since my family of three was the last group to be picked up, the minibus was already full, and I had to sit at the front with the driver and guide. Unfortunately, this wasn't the most comfortable arrangement, especially for the duration of the trip. Ultimately, everything was very well planned and organized. We truly enjoyed the tour and appreciate the effort in making it a memorable experience.

If you are looking for a Mekong Delta tour that is authentic, fun, and deeply enriching, look no further! Our day trip with host Jason and co-host Mia was the highlight of our entire trip to Vietnam. Jason blended fascinating history and cultural insights with hilarious jokes throughout the journey. He made us feel connected to the Mekong. Mia was the sweet, attentive. While Jason drove the narrative, Mia ‘s kindness was incredible—she helped take pictures, answered all our questions patiently, and even taught us a few basic Vietnamese phrases with a warm smile. We glided through lush, narrow canals on a traditional sampan boat—a serene and beautiful experience. We visited a local family's bee farm and tasted delicious honey tea, and the coconut candy workshop was a blast. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch with local specialties. Thank you, Jason and Mia! Do not hesitate to book this tour—you will be lucky to have them as your guides and Jason might even sing a song!

Our Mekong Delta tour was absolutely fantastic — an experience I’ll remember for a lifetime! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, comfortable, and full of charm. The scenery along the river was breathtaking, the food(vegan) was delicious, and the local experiences felt truly authentic. But what made this tour truly exceptional was our amazing guide, Dyan. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and full of energy. Dyan’s passion for his culture and his deep understanding of the Mekong Delta brought every stop to life. He shared fascinating stories about local traditions, helped us interact with local families, and made sure everyone in the group felt welcome and cared for. Dyan went above and beyond to make the day special — from recommending the best local snacks to helping us capture beautiful photos along the way. His humor and kindness made the journey even more enjoyable.

It was a great trip, but felt a bit on a hurry. At 14:00 we already finished the itinerary and returned to Saigon. They picked us up from the hotel and returned us very close to it. All the boat trips were nice, the fruits were excellent and the food tasty.

The tour guide was a very cheerful and fun person. The tour was very fulfilling, including visiting temples and a coconut sugar factory, experiencing a hand-rowed boat while wearing a Non La (Vietnamese conical hat), and traveling through nature in a three-wheeled vehicle. The lunch, including local fish dishes and spring rolls, was delicious, and it's wonderful that you can enjoy so much content for this price, including water and coconut water. I highly recommend it. (A separate tip of about 50,000 VND is required for the hand-rowed boat.)

I participated in the Mekong tour. I was told it would be a large group tour, but there were only 12 participants. Our guide, Bo Han, was a very cute and energetic guide. She explained things in clear English, which made it easy to understand even for someone like me who isn't very good at English. The music performance tips, honey, and coconut candy are not necessarily required. I didn't buy anything, but I tasted everything during the samples. The experiences move along quickly, so I was able to enjoy everything. She took photos of us on the boat and sent them to us via WhatsApp. If you are Japanese and participating in an English tour instead of a Japanese tour, it is good to have a messaging app other than LINE.

we had a wonderful day on this tour ….our tour guide “Rick” was amazing so helpful with lots of information and tips very kind and caring we saw and experienced so much on this tour we highly recommend and very reasonable price good vale for money
