A really excellent private tour - We had a really great private 'Fascinating Mekong' tour from Nha Rong Port, thanks to our brilliant guide Castle and a really safe driver. Both were a credit to the tour operator. Our cruise ship arrived in port slightly late and so we were anxious whether we could fit in the tour activities in the more limited time, but we needn't have worried. After a short shuttle ride to the cruise gate Castle was there to greet us and we were soon on our way. We were treated to interesting information from Castle on the 90 minute journey to the Mekong River venue. We then had a private river boat take us to the restaurant where we had a lovely lunch of local delicacies including elephant ear fish. Very tasty indeed. Next Castle took us to visit areas including the local coconut sweet factory which was very interesting, then on to the bee keeping venue and the local dancing demonstration. There was also fruit to eat and a trip round the local farmsteads/businesses. The trip was rounded off with a rowing boat ride. A thoroughly enjoyable day and highly recommended.

Wonderful Mekong River Exploration - We thoroughly enjoyed our small group shore excursion from Phu My port to the Mekong River with Scooter Saigon Tours. Our wonderful tour guide Catherine Hang was already waiting for our group outside the port gate and with her and our friendly driver we set off in a clean, spacious van to My Tho, our starting point for our Mekong Delta cruise. We explored amazing Mekong rivers, canals and islands with Catherine in a comfortable motorized boat. She was very nice, funny and full of information. We got to see coconut candy production, visited orchards and bee - keeping house, enjoyed a rowing boat ride along small mangrove palm creek and had a delicious local lunch. Highly recommended!
