“FANTASTIC CULTURAL EXPERIENCE OF THE MEKONG DELTA!”
I’m a seasoned traveler for over 30 years and have experienced my share of tours… However, I would have to say that this Delta tour organized by Stephen Vu is by far second to none! Stephen is the real deal! He is honest and cares about your personal experience. If you want the highest caliber organizer of your tour who cares about you? Stephen is the man! He knew exactly what I was looking for in an authentic Mekong Delta tour and set me up with Minh, a very experienced & knowledgeable local guide with over 25 years of experience and spoke very good English. At first, I thought it was going to be like a zoo with tons of people in traffic jam on the boats, like videos on Youtube of the Delta tour. Stephen set the Delta tour in Ben Tre. In my opinion, Ben Tre is much more personal and authentic as we were guided away from the other Delta tours where there were many companies aggregated in clusters to the same Mekong venue. That is, I was treated like a local celebrity as we were the only boat silently traversing through the narrow Delta, which enable us to experience the natural ecosystem to its fullest. Merci Stephen! Doc K.
