Lovely day trip at Mekong river delta
GlobeTrotting152556, Apr 2026
We had a lovely day trip at Mekong delta, lots of seeing and doing but with an easygoing, non-hurried pace. Arrangements were smooth, the lunch really good and our guide Mr Long was a perfect host for us.
Great full day adventure in Ho Chi Minh

Fung was an excellent guide. Very informative and entertaining. 3337 got us around safely and kept the bus nice and clean while we went about. I highly recommend this tour and if you can get this team as your guide that is the cherry on top.
