An Amazing Mekong River Tour with a Local Expert!!! This Mekong River tour was beyond amazing, and Kevin, our guide, truly made it unforgettable. Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable about the Mekong Delta, but he’s also a local, which made the experience even more special. Kevin shared fascinating stories and insights about the culture, history, and lifestyle of the region – it was like getting an insider’s view of the Mekong. The boat ride itself was peaceful and scenic, with plenty of opportunities to admire the lush landscapes and charming riverside villages. Kevin took us to local spots where we got to try authentic food, meet friendly locals, and see how life along the river really works. His personal connection to the area added so much depth to the experience. I really appreciated how attentive Kevin was throughout the day, ensuring everyone was comfortable and making sure we didn’t miss any of the highlights. This tour was perfectly organized, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Mekong Delta. If you can, request Kevin as your guide – his passion for the region and local expertise made the experience truly one of a kind!

It can be said that this is a must-visit attraction when visiting Ho Chi Minh City. In addition to the delicious food on the cruise, the scenery is also very beautiful. You can take photos as much as you want during the two hours on the ship, and there will be a music feast by a singer at the end.

Well worth a visit! All-you-can-eat lobster in a variety of flavors, and grilled oysters with cheese are very delicious without any fishy smell. I will definitely come here every time I come to Vietnam!
