A tour I would thoroughly recommend - Communication with Zen very good. We wandered thru the country on the back of bikes. My rider was fabulous. I felt very safe. We saw many interesting things. The pace was relaxing. The lunch at da bang was excellent and the afternoon siesta much needed. We had samples of very delicious coconut candy. The afternoon boat ride was so tranquil. The most tranquil of all our mekong experience. The finale was a drive thru Ben Tre markets and area. Very exciting. I would recommend this tour.

Unforgettable Mekong Delta Adventure! - An absolutely fantastic experience! Our tour of the Mekong Delta was authentic and intimate, with just 5 of us in the group. The morning scooter ride was a lot of fun and allowed us to enjoy the breathtaking views of the lush greenery. Meeting locals in the village and experiencing their lifestyle firsthand, along with delicious juices, was unforgettable. The afternoon boat tour on the serene Mekong River was simply magical, away from tourist crowds, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of nature. A sensational day made possible by our passionate guides, Linh and Zen. Thank you for an unforgettable adventure!

Mekong at its Best - Mekong ZigZag was fantastic, an appropriate name as we zig zagged all over Mekong. Si was our guide and shared his extensive knowledge of the area. We were picked up in Ho Chi Minh at 7am travelling a couple of hours by private car to Si's homestay Ba Dahn, where we were welcomed with tea and their homemade coconut candy...yum. The day was packed with activities getting around by motorbike. If you want to avoid the tourist trips this is the best, a real view of the way of life for the people living on the Mekong River. If you have the extra days I would recommend staying at Si's homestay or at Innerzen homestay where we boarded the boat to sail down the Mekong. Great day, great food, great value. Thanks again Si!

The true Ben Tre - Just finished an amazing full day tour with Phu Si with 6 family members. He was very accommodating arranging the scooters. Some members preferring to be passengers while others tried it for themselves. (Very easy apparently.)
Lots to see and do. Boat ride, Tuk Tuk ride and learnt a lot about BenTre and the local way of life.
Definitely recommend
Thanks Phu Si

A wonderful tour with a local guide - I had the impression that the price was a little high compared to local prices, but the tour content was worth the price.
Visiting local shops picked up by your guide, cracking open coconuts for drinks, touring the city's recommended gourmet food... It would be impossible to spend such a fulfilling day without someone who knows the local area. I don't think I could.
I think it was a well-balanced tour with some leisure-like elements such as cruising.
I don't think it's suitable for people who are germophotic, but I think it's highly recommended for people who are tired of the usual leisure sightseeing.

Amazing and authentic Mekong experience - This tour is truly amazing!
You are away from touristic places and will have a real and authentic experience. You even might be able to try to ride the scooter by yourself and steer a boat. The pancakes we had in the evening were really delicious. Every time there will be slight different visits, speak to your guide if you want to experience something specifically.
Support this kind of tourism instead of masstourism!
