★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 942 reviews · from $61Top rated

Trade Ho Chi Minh City traffic for Mekong canals, coconut farms, village cycling, local markets, and an overnight stay in Can Tho. Your English-speaking guide, often Bac, Nick, Lucky, or another assigned leader, handles transport, meals, boats, and timing. The early market visit can vary in quality.

The Guide was pretty good, keen to let us know about the itinerary and point out interesting landmarks etc on the way down, however he talked to us for about an hour & was standing up facing us. It would have been better if he'd been sitting down so we could listen more comfortably, and broken it down into say 20 min bursts.

Hien was our host for the Family Tiny Garden stay and gave us a lovely quiet village life experience. Activities were lots of fun and at our own pace.
