Interesting and well thought out - Thanks to Ken from Joy Journeys. This was an excellent tour from start to finish. Good communication throughout. The trip is so well thought out with each of the activities keeping us interested and flowing seamlessly from one to the next, showing us a slice of life in the Mekong delta. Ken was a great guide and provided all the info we needed

Great trip - Great trip. Meet by Huy who kept us updated the night before regarding collection etc. Huy explained every detail of the trip which made it very intresting. The only negative was would have liked more time on the river.

Mekong Delta tour and much more. - Great day multiple activities, very knowledgeable guide called Karo. Even after the wonderful tour and food he kept educating us about pitfalls and places to eat, he offered for any of our group to call at anytime when in Vietnam if unsure about anything. He gave everyone in the group a gift also when leaving. The workers at this company are so happy and blessed they do this for a living and it shines through. They love their country and are very happy to show it off. So they should be.

Lovely day out with lots of local experiences - A well organised trip on 19/1/26. Our guide was helpful, informative and had a great sense of humour. Every stop was hassle free and enjoyable especially the island where we got to sing, taste and cook with local people. We found it to be a day full of laughter and a break from the bustle of Ho Chi Minh City.

Thoroughly recommended, does what it says it - Great day trip with Ken. Really well organised and thoughtfully planned. Ken has great knowledge and mannerisms, on the drive out of HCMC his chat kept us distracted from the traffic. Itinerary is enjoyable, maybe a little more time in the jungle since it's so magical but I get it's a working island and not a tourist theme park. Other travellers on the group were a diverse bunch and lovely to chat to. Can't think of any negative that was within control, traffic on the way back was a bummer but c'est la vie! Thanks for the great memories

Great trip, I recommend - What a nice experience it was. We had a full day tour and our guide Kero was outstanding. We learned new things we didn't know from previous tours throughout Vietnam. The long car drive was made very interesting by Kero He was showing us information on Vietnam, history, the people, the food, the money, the "does" and "don'ts" Once we where in Mekong area we had various transportation: boats, tuc tuc, plenty of food and drinks. And again a lot of information. A big thank you to Kero and Joy Journeys!

A fun day on the river - The tour was fun. The car ride was very comfortable. The tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We particularly liked riding in the sampan (ghe), and the tuk-tuk. The itinerary included interesting stops. However, some of those stops were just sales pitches.
