A joy of a mkong river tour - We had a great tour of the river with the guide Nick - a nice, smart and knowledgeable man. The boat ride was so beautiful and interesting. Nick showed us the interesting things in the nature around: the bee nests, the snail egg clusters and the many birds...
At the bird tower he made sure to treat us to coconut water straight from the nut and a banana snack. Really pampering It was really fun!!

Informative insight into the delta - We recommend the tour for an insight into the Mekong Delta. The Guide, Mrs. V., gave us a lot of information and was able to answer our questions about the region and beyond without restriction. She was very open-minded and friendly. We felt comfortable.
The boat tour is only short, about 15 minutes.
The other time you go through rice fields and in the hidden forest by foot.
The journey from Can Tho to the reserve takes time, about 40 minutes. Also the transfer time between the attractions.
However, the transfer with the driver was very pleasant.
Thank you for the nice experience.

Enchanting - Very nice exit in a zen and abundant place. Greenery and flowers, boat ride with enchanting detours Our very attentive Khoa guide takes advantage of what is presented to us to explain to us different typical Vietnamese customs. We even enjoyed his homemade cookies! Thank you Khoa for this very pleasant outing!

An authentic journey - Nick regaled us. Punctual, nice, he detailed the nature reserve very well despite the language barrier. Quiet, authentic, peaceful place, an extraordinary journey in the meanders of the Mekong. Thanks Nick for everything. Manu & Isa

One of the best tours in Can Tho - It was a wonderful experience away from the hustle and bustle to enjoy the peace and inspiration of nature. Our guide Selina has made the experience even more memorable. It was nice to see how much knowledge and empathy she brought to the area. She was able to answer all our questions (including general questions about Vietnam) professionally. Highly recommended.

Visiting nature - Driver Nick pick us up in time and drives us carefully to this interesting and well kept nature reserve. We navigate on a small canoe during min 2 hours in the forest and went back on a footpath to the parking. Good experience and very well organised.
