⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Unforgettable Private Tour Experience! Our Private Tour to Explore Mekong Delta was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Jason, our tour guide, delivered an exceptional experience — attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly adaptable to our group’s preferences. He truly made the day special and personal. The travel arrangements were luxurious and seamless, and the tour itself exceeded all expectations — culturally rich, vibrant, and full of energy. The food was delicious, the service impeccable, and every detail was thoughtfully planned. The highlight was definitely the Mekong River, it was breathtakingly beautiful and an unforgettable part of the trip. We highly recommend this private tour experience to anyone visiting Vietnam. Huge thanks to Jason and the entire team for creating such a memorable and enjoyable day for Dance With Me Sydney family!

We had an amazing experience on my tour with Hái! He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience enjoyable. His passion for the local culture really stood out, and he shared fascinating stories and facts that made the tour so much more interesting. Hái was attentive to everyone in the group, always ready to answer questions and personalize the experience. We left with a deeper understanding and appreciation of the area. I highly recommend booking a tour with Hái – you won’t be disappointed!

We had a fantastic day exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta as a family of five! Our guide, Nick, was absolutely brilliant, friendly, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. He made the whole experience engaging and enjoyable for everyone. Boo Boo, our driver, was excellent too - safe, smooth driving and always ready with a smile and a dance. The VIP tour bus was super comfortable and made the journey really relaxing between stops. Everything ran perfectly on time, and we got to see and do so much without ever feeling rushed. Highly recommend this tour — it was one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip!

First time experiencing a show while eating, there are many traditional Vietnamese musical instruments on stage, which I've never seen in Taiwan. The two-hour performance was worth the ticket price.

Among the many massage places in Vietnam, this one has a great experience. The massage process is very relaxing, and the store environment is very good. I will come again next time.
