Tour guide did not turn up. After 2 phone calls no one arrived. We waited for over an hour for someone to arrive and no one did
Amazing Experience

We loved our bike riding trip through the Mekong Delta. Our van and driver was so helpful, making sure our e-bikes were in working order. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable and kind.
We did not get, what we payed for.
Camilla S, Feb 2024
We booked the private tour due to 2 small kids. We could see in the discription on whats’s included, we saw it was a minivan so that would have been perfect - so with no hesitation we payed the extra cost. Well.. it was not a minivan, but a regular car. We told the guide we had booked a minivan and it is stated through Tripadvisor. The guide said she would reach out to her boss, but nothing happened and for the rest of the trip, she said nothing. So we had to sit in a small car for 4,5 hours with small kids on our lap. The driver and the guide was really good, so hopefully they will receive our refund for the minivan in tips from their boss. The guide knew a lot of things and seemed really kind hearted. The driver and the guide is the reason why this get’s 3 ‘stars’. The trip was overall really good, but we will not give a more positive review, since we booked something Else than we revieved. The trip also included ‘bike tour’(?) which we did not do either. Do not book the private tour, if you expect a minivan - which is stated through Tripadvisor.
Mekong Tour was remarkable
H2040FXcharliec, Dec 2023
The tour was filled with numerous highlights, but it wasn't just the excellent guidance from our guide, Duc, that made it special. The lunch was a delightful experience, offering a true taste of Vietnamese cuisine that was both authentic and familiar enough for our kids to enjoy every bit of it. The scooter ride added an exciting element to our adventure, and the visit to the coconut candy factory was fascinating. Despite the significant travel time of 1.5 hours each way, the insights into Vietnamese culture made every moment worthwhile. It was a fantastic way to experience Vietnam, and I highly recommend booking this tour for an enriching and enjoyable family experience.
