Floating market tour with breakfast, rice noodle making, and cocoa farm excursion! - Great tour with lots of interesting stops, delicious food, and fantastic views. Our tour guide, Edward, was very fun, thoughtful, and exceptionally knowledgeable.

Amazing - This tour was amazing. Definitely worth the early morning wake up to experience the sunrise on the water. Our guide Edward was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. He explained all about the different boats and the way the floating market works. He knows so much about the local plants as well. We loved having coffee, breakfast, and fruit out in the water. The other parts of the tour were equally fun and informative. We got to try making noodles and then visited a cocoa farm where we tried the best, real chocolate. I highly recommend this tour and am so glad this is how we got to spend the morning!

Great Tour of the Floating Market - Amazing tour. Definitely off the beaten path. One of the best moments was eating a bowl of hu tieu from a boat vendor. Amazing experience to take in. Drive takes a while if you're coming from HCMC but other than that, the actual tour was great.

Great experience - We had a great tour with Edward. We saw a lot of different things and he explained everything well. He also answered all of our questions. Would recommend booking this tour (if you don’t mind getting up really early).

Dagtoer Ho Chi Minh - Extensive day tour with Edward. We were picked up at half past three at our hotel in Ho Chi Min center to start our day. Upon arrival we immediately went on our boat and sailed towards the floating market. After this, the various activities started which were all interesting. Edward explained everything clearly with a smile.

Highly recommend: very j - Was a great tour! We took the private van and private tour which made the trip super smooth and enjoyable at a great pace. Our tour guide Edward was very informative! We learned a lot about not only the Mekong but Vietnam in general. Got to see chocolate and rice paper made the old fashion way and taste a bit of each. I really enjoyed the coffee and Vietnamese breakfast on the Mekong Delta. Would definitely recommend as a day trip in Vietnam.
