Nice moment. - Our guide was extraordinary; kind, smiling, attentive, she speaks very good English, the exchange is easy (she speaks a little French).
She took beautiful pictures of us, it was a real plus, like a photographer.
It is both a pleasure for the eyes but also for our palate, the course is punctuated by tastings (pineapple, noodles, coconut,...).
Very few people on the nature reserve, so we feel privileged.
I recommend this excursion!

The whole trip was very well organised and had lots of delicious drinks and food. Thanks to Ngan for making this day special!

Amazing day on the Mekong Delta - This was a great trip and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Mekong Delta. These floating market is one of the most unique things we’ve seen and done. Having breakfast and coffee served from a boat on the river was a one of a kind experience. The nature reserve was a peaceful retreat from the city and we enjoyed seeing the birds and wildlife and being able to actually get out into the midst of the rice fields. Every single thing we ate was delicious. Last, but certainly not least, our guide, Ngan, was friendly and amazing. Her English was excellent and she was very knowledgeable about both the floating market and nature center.

A superbly well run tour that you won't regret doing - This is an exceptional tour. Our guide Ngan was punctual and great company to spend the day with. It felt like being shown around by a friend who kept us well informed, well fed and hydrated. My wife and I were the only guests and given the VIP treatment. Whilst touring the floating market we were treated to Vietnamese ice coffee, freshly squeezed orange juice, Pho noodles, pineapples and passionfruit (boarded a pineapple vendor's boat), rambutans and milk apples. We then toured some small canals and given a private tour on how rice noodles were made and even got to try a few tasks. We were driven by private car to the nature reserve for a separate boat ride through the floating plants and climbing a lookout tower for some panoramic views. Treated to fresh coconut juice, mangoes and fried banana. The restaurant at the reserve was busy so we decided to go eat Banh Xeo and Banh Khot at a local restaurant before being dropped back at our hotel. What a great way to finish a superb day. Just do it!

Unforgettable excursion - It is a unique and incredible experience because it exceeds our imagination, the floating market that symbolizes trade, today for example fruits like pineapples, all those people who open their boats to you and share drinks and fruits then sneak into the canals through a rice dough factory and end up in the beautiful nature reserve of Lung Ngoc Hoang and especially a big thank you to Chris for his professionalism, his extreme kindness and dedication, I highly recommend Thank you Chris!!!

Amazing experience with knowledgeable guide - We had an amazing day being shown around by Ngân. We started our morning with being picked up and heading to the floating market. The boat ride was very comfortable and Ngân told us about the different produce, people and history of the market. We got to taste some of the different fruit and enjoyed a lovely bowl of noodle soup on the river. After we headed to a local rice noodle factory where we got to see the process of creating the rice noodles and the people behind it. Again Ngân was very helpful with any questions we had and even let us be part of the noodle process briefly. After this we cruised the river for a while longer and then jumped in our ride to the nature reserve. The ride took about an hour and was very comfortable. We arrived to a beautiful location full of plant life and a couple ducks. We proceeded with a small boat in the nature reserve and observed the serene water system, rice fields, different plants and birds. We really enjoyed the tranquility of the nature reserve and the boat ride. We then enjoyed a very delicious local lunch with different vegetables, spring rolls and delicious fruit before heading back to Can Tho. All in all we had an absolutely lovely tour with a absolutely lovely and knowledgeable guide. We would recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and local experience

Incredible nature and cultural experience - We recently joined the tour offered by Mekong Realism, and it exceeded all our expectations! From start to finish, the entire journey was beautifully organized, offering a perfect mix of breathtaking nature and vibrant local culture.
The visit to the nature reserve was a highlight, as we were surrounded by stunning landscapes and had the chance to see unique wildlife up close. It felt so peaceful, and Ngân, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable about the ecosystem.
The floating market experience was truly unforgettable. Witnessing the bustling trade on the river was fascinating, and we loved interacting with the local vendors.
This tour is a must for anyone visiting the Mekong Delta and is short on time — it’s an enriching, fun, and unforgettable way to experience the beauty and heart of this amazing region. Highly recommended!
