Explore the picturesque scenery of Ben Tre in Mekong Delta
We will visit the town of Ben Tre, about two hours away from the city. Known as the "Kingdom of Coconut", Ben Tre is one of the best places to explore the untouched and natural landscapes of Mekong Delta, Vietnam: its beautiful water coconut canals combined with traditional activities and lush gardens. Relax on a local rowing boat as we drift serenely through several green canals beneath high-rising water coconut trees. Doubtlessly, it is truly a picture of paradise.

Ho Chi Minh Tour Reviews
Susan Z.
The highlight of Ho Chi Minh City, experience real Saigon
“A wonderfull day in Ho Chi Minh City”
Xuan's experience in being a guide is obvious. He knows his city, the history and really cool places that only the "in crowd" would know of. He took us to a coffee boat, where we had drank smoothies while relaxing in the very old boat overlooking the river. It was a great day and I highly recommend Xuan as a tour guide

“An amazing day thanks to an amazing guide!”
The size of our group kept changing. Xuan dealt with it in such a professional way. But the highlight was his own skills and personality. Smart, professional, and incredibly personable he made the day an absolute delight for all nine of us. If you want to see and experience HoChiMinh City in ways the standard tour will never provide, use Xuan. It will be the highlight of your trip!

“Excellent guide”
Me and my family had a few hours between our transfer so we decided to spend those hours in Ho Chi Minh city. Xuan was an excellent guide as he was energetic and had detailed knowledge about the city as well as Vietnam in general. He showed us around the interesting landmarks in the city as well as taking us to local food restaurants. In all Xuan was a great guide as he was prompt and had a clear interest in the city’s culture and history. Strongly recommend
