Do Not Miss this Experience!
This excursion is not a tour - it's an experience! We spent a full day with Joey, our awesome tour guide, who met us at the cruise pier. We used our time together eating, drinking and meandering our way around the Delta. Joey made sure to accommodate us - we're not so spry - and she customized the stops to avoid anything too demanding for us. We took a boat ride to Unicorn Island to discover how the locals make honey, wine and moonshine (and sample the results) and grow the most delicious fruits. We also learned how to puff rice! We then traveled across the river to see how to make coconut candy. Then time for a delicious lunch. Another boat ride returned us to the marina and our car. After a visit to the pagoda to see Happy Buddah, Lady Buddah and Reclining Buddah, we returned to our ship exhausted but happily filled with memories.
Great tour with Joey 🦘
Joey was an excellent your guide - gave us plenty of time to enjoy the sights, was knowledgeable & could answer questions, helped with language barriers and was so friendly! Thank you for a lovely day 🦘

Mekong Delta day trip with Joey
We had a great trip with our tourgide Joey. She was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. You see alot of attractions in just a few hours. Would definitely recommend 5/5 🌟
Great tour - honest review
Joey our guide was exceptional. Very good English and had lots of knowledge about the river, villages and area. I am vegetarian and the lunch was fantastic they went out of their way to ensure I had a veggie version of everything the rest of our small group were having and I ended up with so much food. Excellent service and tour. I would recommend. One flag for anyone wanting to visit the villages in general (and not related to the tour company) is that there are a lot of animal welfare concerns which some individuals may find difficult in particular vegans/ vegetarians but also the rest of our group found the horse carriages disturbing (our tour didn’t use them we went on Tuk Tuks instead) and the crocodile treatment at the restaurant cruel and hard to watch. Our tour was fantastic though but want to flag for others in case it would play into the decision.
