Very early, really worth it trip and experience. - We were group of 5 friends. Trip was very well organised. Our tour guide - Edward - has a lot knowlage. In funny way talking about our next experiences. Even at 5 am it was with humor, I appreciated. Visiting floating market from small boat and have delicous breakfast at it was worth the morning wake up. Cocoa farm and noodle production was also tasty experience. My advice, takę rubber flip-flops, set the alarm at 2 AM and enjoy the trip.

Amazing experience! - Our guide Edward was so nice and so knowledgeable… we are so grateful we got to meet him. He had so much information to share in many different topics about Mekong Delta. We did this tour with our 4 kids and we all loved it. Edward was super engaging with the kids and they felt very at ease right away around him. Everything went smoothly including the pick-up in Saigon. The Mekong delta floating market won’t be there for ever.. it is slowly fading away nowadays and I’m grateful my kids and ourselves got to experience this. The noodle breakfast and coffee in the middle of the market was a beautiful experience! Thank you Edward! We appreciated you !

Amazing family tour - Great tour! The pace of the tour is slower than others we have done in Saigon which was great for the family. Sunrise and breakfast on the Mekong was worth getting up early. The rice noodle artisan and cocoa producer tours were the cherry on top.

An experience of 10!! - A super complete activity. It is worth getting up early and not missing the floating market, it is very surprising and different. Breakfast on the boat while we saw the day to day market we loved. Our local guide Tony Nguyen has been very friendly, friendly and very competent. Always attentive to our needs. Thank you so much for everything!!

An immersive experience to put on your bucket list! - We went on our tour with Edward and couldn’t have asked for a better guide! He was full of history, listening to our questions, cheerful and energetic. Without him, the excursion would not have been the same. I loved seeing the market at sunrise and having lunch on the boat. It is definitely an immersive experience to live during your stay in Vietnam!

Amazing - It was an amazing experience with our boat driver and tour guide. We watched a gorgeous sunrise on the canal as we headed to the Cai Rang floating market. We had delicious breakfast and fruit and never felt rushed! We had nothing but excellent communication with our driver from HCM to Can Tho and the travel agents as well. Our driver did a very good job and was so kind to weave use a bouquet of flowers while he waited for us at our activities. We stopped at the rice noodle factory which was so much fun as we got to do some of it ourselves and then we went to the cacao plantation where we wandered around the trees. overall an amazing day.
