Great Tour Company. Even greater Tour Guide
Dec 2022 • Family
Our trip was a once in a lifetime experience. This experience was only enhanced by our guide Hien. He took care of our groups needs and became part of the family. Part Historian, Comedian, and grand Host. Hien does it all. If you’re looking to take a trip to Vietnam. I strongly recommend this company and Hien specifically. 9.5/10

A REAL tour! Hien is a fabulous tour guide! Avoid the tourist traps with Hien!!
Oct 2018 • Couples
Hien really seems to enjoy his tours, and knows how to avoid the tourist jams! We loved the scooter ride through the countryside, even stopping in his own home for fruit! We also enjoyed boating through the Mekong Delta and a lovely delicious lunch right on the water! Thank you Hien for sure a memorable time!

Excellent Tour!
Nov 2018 • Couples
We did a 2 day 1 night tour from Ho Chi Minh City to Can Tho. The company was super flexible and arranged the tour to our needs (the tour ended at Can Tho airport for example, since we flew onwards from there). Our guide Than was super friendly and explained a lot about the Mekong Delta. We had a faboulous time, thank you!

Great tour with Hien,no tourist traps.
Jul 2018 • Family
We had a wonderful day out with Hein. Very knowledgeable and informative about the area with a great sense of humor about some of the things we seen on the trip.If you want to experience the real Mekong delta away from the crowded tourist areas then this trip is a must do.The ride on the back of the scooter through the countryside and rice fields was amazing.The lunch we had at the foot of the delta was great freshly caught clams and shrimp brought straight to your plate.

Great company to explore this region
Jul 2018 • Family
We booked this from home, the 2D/1N Mekong Delta tour and the 1D Cu Chi tour. All along, we were guided by Long and driven by Thang, great guys! They showed us the 'off the beaten path' part of Mekong Delta, with markets where nobody goes, villages where they took us on a scooter through the rice fields, temples where we were alone. In short: a great experience, with plenty of opportunities to give your own input!
I was also amazed about the quality of the overnight stay in Can Toh during the Mekong Tour. A company can easily drop you in a dump, as it's included in the price, but here we landed in a 4 star hotel at the seaside, perfect breakfast included. To summarize: be prepared to pay a bit more to take the private tour, the result is far better than getting on a bus and being drawn from one tourist trap to the next one!

Wonderful Private Tour
May 2017 • Couples
Had a wonderful full day tour with our friendly and humorous guide, Hien. A private tour. Also very thankful to the driver who got us from place to place safely and smoothly.

Hien was very informative on Vietnam, in particular, Ho Chi Minh and the Mekong. Feel free to ask him any questions, he will be more than happy to answer! A whirlwind of a tour, plenty of activities and sightseeing: local temple, wet market, villages, chilli farm, paddy fields, rice mill, rivers, plantations etc. We went on a car, a scooter and on boats. Had great lunch by the waterfront.

Tour provides an insight to the daily lives of the Mekong folk. Hien would impart his knowledge gained growing up in the Mekong. For instance, how many ways a banana tree could be used, from its fruits to its leaves. Btw, the bananas grown on his estate was fantastic. Sweet and plump.

We felt safe under Hien's care. He was also offered to take photos and videos of us on the boat rides. Really appreciate that.

Would also like to thank his family and relatives' hospitality. The snake infused wine was great.

Recommend this tour if you're looking for a fuss-free, safe, extensive and insightful tour on the lives of the Mekong people.

Saigon Personal Experience
Feb 2018 • Couples
We spent two wonderful days with Hien.Day 1 took us via a stop at a temple and local market to his sisters home in the countryside.After refreshments we took scooters to the rice fields and visited another family home which we felt privileged to see.We had a seafood lunch at the coast and then saw the river itself from a boat and sampan.
Day2 took us to Saigon itself where we visited the former palace ,a Chinese temple and had a local lunch in the market
All in all two tours which were superb

Day in the Mekong
Jan 2019 • Couples
We only had 48 hours in HCM so booked a private day tour for 2 of us to get the most from the time. Not the cheapest way to see the Mekong, but good value for a private tour Tam was very friendly and chatty and gave us a great tour, starting early in morning and getting us back to HCM by 5PM. Highlight was the scooter rides around the rice fields and village, plus sampling various home made rice wines at a local house. They have some interesting ways to add flavor! If we're lucky enough to go back to HCM again I'd book with Real Mekong Delta again, but hopefully a 2 or 3 day trip next time as there's so much more that could be seen.

Great tours with "Harry" (Nguyễn Huỳnh Anh Khoa)
Jan 2019 • Family
We did the Cu chi tunnel tour and the full day Mekong Delta tour from Ho chi Minh City including the river cruise. We had Harry as our guide and he was just fantastic! He was extremely knowledgable about Vietnamese culture and history. He always willing and happy to answer all our questions and even filled in with information about Vietnam that we had not thought about. His english was outstanding and his open attitude was a pleasure to be around. We learned a lot over the two days we toured with Harry, and the whole family (mon, dad and three teenagers) had a great time, and shared many laughs with Harry. We highly recommend a tour with VietCruise, and definitely ask for Harry!!!
