Just the Mekong Tour we hoped for! - We and our two children aged 6 and 10 had really much fun with our guide An who was both knowledgeable, easy to understand in English and extremely pleasant company. The trip went to a weavery, a coconut factory, a coconut lick shop (yumyum!), a boat trip and a scooter tour along the beautiful little paths and roads. It was just something of what we hoped to experience when travelling to Vietnam. Can highly recommend!

A must if you’re visiting the South of Vietnam - An absolute must if you’re visiting the South. Such a great way to see local South-Vietnam. The boat tour was very peaceful and undisturbed from mass tourism. The ride with the scooters was also so much fun with good explanations on the way. The food was very tasty too and as everywhere in Vietnam in abundance.

Fully immersed in mekong life - We've had such a great day out with Chi! We booked the cooking class followed by the half day mekong tour. Visiting the markets to buy ingredients was so fun, the stallholders were really kind and welcoming, and it was nice being the only travellers in the market. We then helped cook a delicious meal, which I think we'd be able to recreate ourselves at home. A bit of time to chill at the lovely homestay where we cooked, and then a really fun scooter ride through the local villages, stopping at lots of interesting businesses. Finished off with a very peaceful boat trip in the river. We saw 4 kingfishers! Chi was so kind and thoughtful throughout, we felt very welcome and so well taken care of ☺️ One thing I really appreciated is that Chi took photos of wherever we visited, so we have some really great memories recorded without needing to have our phones out all the time. Thanks for everything Chi ❤️

Excellent must do tour of Ben Tre. Great value for money! - This tour was excellent! Great value for money and A was very welcoming, kind and knowledgeable and also speaks very good english. We did the afternoon tour and started at a gorgeous home stay in the jungle and ate lunch which was delicious. We travelled by bike to visit different villages and learn about their crafts. We ate and drunk fresh coconut and then had a gorgeous sail down the river and watched the sunset. A must do tour if you’re visiting Ben Tre!

Great morning around Mekong delta - We really enjoyed this tour! Ann, our guide, explained a lot of interesting things about the culture and about plants and fruits growing here. We visited some markets and productive activities around the villages. The boat tour was beautiful and relaxing and finally we really enjoyed the great lunch. We highly recommend this experience!!

Amazing tour! Absolutely recommended! - We chose the afternoon tour and were really lucky with the weather – sunny and warm. Ann was our guide, and she did a fantastic job! The group was small, which made for a very pleasant experience. We (a couple from Germany) thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour with its variety of stops. Our highlights were the scooter ride through the narrow streets of Ben Tre, surrounded by palm trees, and the boat ride along the Mekong – simply beautiful. Despite the many stops, activities, and things to try and learn, the tour wasn’t rushed; it was very relaxing.

Beautiful tour - We left from our homestay by boat and had a wonderful morning tour on the river. Afterwards we did a little scooter tour with Chi and were able to see the area. Chi is super likeable and lovely and has shown and explained a lot to us. Finally, we enjoyed a very delicious lunch at Homestay Ba Danh and were allowed to see the production of the coconut sweets. That was very interesting. Chi knows a lot about the region and the plant world and answers a lot of questions. We can recommend the tour 100%.
