Prehliadky Thoi Son Island

Neuveriteľne vydarená malá prehliadka rieky Mekong Delta, vďaka sprievodcovi Ryanovi, ktorý je pozorný a zaujímavý. Veľmi obohacujúca cesta, navštívili sme továreň na kokosové cukríky a chrám, vyskúšali medový čaj, počúvali miestnu hudbu pri ochutnávaní miestneho ovocia a previezli sa loďou po rieke Mekong. Odporúčam :)

Plavba po Mekongu a jeho kanáloch je super relaxačná a príroda je nádherná na fotenie. Páčil sa mi zážitok z vychutnávania si prírody, hada, rýb, krokodílov, vidieť, ako pripravujú produkty z kokosu a dokonca aj rum, bolo to super! Len si nezabudnite vziať to, čo vám odporučia na výlet (hlavne na slnko a aby ste sa cítili pohodlne na lodiach), jedna pani išla v šľapkách, ktoré sa šmýkali a skoro spadla pri nastupovaní do loďky. Je to skvelý výlet na vypnutie a užitie si dňa bez zhonu!

This full-day excursion was such a blast and easily one of the highlights of our trip! We had an amazing time exploring both the Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta. Everything was well organized, informative, and fun, and we felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire day. There were so many little experiences included along the way. We had multiple food tastings, rest stops, and plenty of opportunities to grab coffee, snacks, and souvenirs without ever feeling rushed or pressured. At the Mekong Delta, we especially loved trying the different coconut samples and seeing how coconut is used in so many different ways. Our tour guide, Johnny, was amazing! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience enjoyable He kept the day engaging from start to finish. I would absolutely recommend this tour to tourists or anyone interested in learning more about Vietnamese history, culture, and local life. You get to experience so much in one day, and it was 100% worth it!

Since I was staying in an apartment rather than a hotel, I made my own way to the pickup location. There were many similar vehicles and large buses at the pickup spot, so I wandered around for a while, not knowing which car I was supposed to take. The guide got out of the car, looked at the voucher, and recognized me, but since I arrived before the guide did, it would be helpful if the vehicle license plate number could be provided in advance the day before. David was the best guide; he took good care of everyone in our group, explained things thoroughly, and made sure we had good meals. We stopped at souvenir shops and other places during the tour, but there was no pressure or awkwardness if we didn't buy anything. In addition to meals, before taking the small boat across the Mekong River, we were able to stop at a place where we could eat fruit and rest for a bit. It was the rainy season, so it rained on and off, but David managed the schedule well so that it didn't cause any major disruptions. At the Cu Chi Tunnels, we even went inside the tunnels. It was educational regarding the Vietnam War, and his explanations were very engaging. For long and difficult explanations, he used translation apps tailored to the Korean and Chinese tourists to help us understand carefully. He truly was the best guide.

Honestly, I thought our tour guide yesterday was already really good. But then Kelvin became our tour guide, and I was like, “Wow, okay, he’s definitely my new standard for tour guides!” 😂 You definitely won’t get bored the entire trip with him. We learned so much, and he was genuinely so fun to be around—you’ll definitely find yourself laughing because of him! He was also super helpful whenever we had questions, and he could spot us so quickly in the crowd. He constantly checked on us to make sure we were okay. He also insisted on taking videos and photos of us, which was such a nice touch! He was very approachable and made us feel comfortable throughout the whole tour. Overall, I HIGHLY recommend this tour, especially if you get Kelvin as your guide! He really made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. 100000000/10! ⭐️😂

Túto prehliadku sme si naozaj užili, najmä vďaka našej úžasnej sprievodkyni Puon. Bola taká milá, podporujúca a ohľaduplná, vždy nám fotila a zdieľala užitočné tipy, aby bol náš pobyt v Ho Či Minovom Meste ešte lepší. Dokonca prekvapili moju tetu zaspievaním „Happy Birthday“, čo urobilo zážitok mimoriadne špeciálnym. Prehliadka prebehla hladko napriek tomu, že bola nedeľa, a páčilo sa nám jedlo, hudba, zvieratá, plavba loďou a jedinečné zážitky. Okrem niekoľkých mrzutých predajcov kokosových cukríkov boli všetci priateľskí. Len si prineste vodu, pretože môže byť dosť horúco. Túto prehliadku vrelo odporúčame, najmä s Puon ako vašou sprievodkyňou!

Hoci bol Hočimin v tomto období uprostred obdobia dažďov a obávali sme sa prívalových dažďov, vďaka tomu, že sme vymenili poradie zájazdu do delty Mekongu a tunelov Cu Chi, a tak sa vyhli davom a prívalovým dažďom, mohli sme si zájazd užiť bez toho, aby nás zastihol prívalový dážď, okrem úplného konca v tuneloch Cu Chi. Ak sú v tejto cene zahrnuté zájazdy do delty Mekongu, tunelov Cu Chi a nočný autobusový zájazd po meste, myslím si, že je to mimoriadne výhodné. Ak hľadáte zájazd v japončine, toto je tá správna voľba!

Všetko bolo zábavné. Sprievodca bol veľmi informatívny.
