Vietnam's bustling largest city sets the cultural and economic pace for the country. The former Saigon boasts charming French colonial architecture and wide boulevards, usually thronged and choked with traffic. Taxis are an option for seeing the sprawling city. The War Remnants Museum shows the Vietnam War through Vietnamese eyes. Don't miss the impressive Jade Emperor Pagoda. Go to the frenetic Ben Thanh Market for food, flowers or frogs. Tour through the Mekong Delta, past rice paddies and houseboats.

Fiesta visit to the market, which opens at 3 am! We learnt so many useful things with our most helpful guide Sang. The cooking experience in itself was fabulous with a most entertaining and knowledgeable chef. We then ate what we had made. I would more than recommend this experience. Thank you

Coconut Town with kayaking day trip in the Mekong Delta will surely bring you an unforgettable experience of the inland waterways. There is no time to wait; begin the journey by dipping yourself into the truly unspoiled destination of the coconut town, where unique handicrafts are made entirely of coconut, but is yet to be discovered by many local tourist companies. It’s a perfect opportunity to enjoy the cool breeze from the river, cruise between the lush tropical islands, kayak through natural canals, and bike on the quaint village roads.
Inclusions: Transport by air-conditioned minivan, Hotel pickup and drop-off, Professional guide, Lunch, Bottled water, All boat for trip

Ben, our guide, picked us up from our city centre hotel and took us to the Mekong Delta, it was around a hour and 10 min trip though could be quicker if the traffic was calmer. We stopped to see the Buddahs and temple quite close to the river before embarking on our first boat trip of the day. We went to see the small bees and held them before tasting honey tea. We sailed on to another island where we saw some traditional folk singers and had some fruits and tea that were all plucked locally. This was followed by a relaxing boat trip along a tranquil river being paddled by a local lady followed by lunch. Lunch was held in a big thatched roof restaurant, the choice of food placed in front of us was lovely and tasted so good. Unfortunatly this is where the tour finished as we had to travel back to Saigon. It was a great day with a very informative guide and would recommend this to anyone who has the time, especially as a private tour. Thanks Ben, we both really enjoyed it.

Excellent guide! We learned so much about life and culture from Lee. And the car was fantastic. I am only sorry that we did not have time to do a Vung Tau tour with him. I bet it's amazing, given that his family still lives there and he grew up there. Lee has a passion for guiding and speaks English really well, too. We thorouly enjoyed our full day with Lee and would highly recommend him for your next tour.

Going through the tunnels was so incredible! (Of course, they were made slightly bigger for foreigners, but wow, I emerged with even greater respect for the people who had to endure living and navigating those tunnels during the war.) Also, seeing my 6'4" (1m93cm) tall husband disappear into jungle floor through a secret entrance was just amazing! Our tour guide, Tuấn, was so insightful and told us about his many experiences in the war! Our driver, Hoàng, was great, too, he stopped to give us refreshments along the way, too. If you're in HCMC, you need to come to the Củ Chi tunnels!

The Mekong Delta is the southernmost region of Vietnam. It is often referred to as the rice bowl of Vietnam as it produces three harvests per year. The fertile Mekong Delta is also famous for its tropical fruits and flowers. The delta area marks the end of a 4,500km journey made by the Mekong River after having traveled through six countries. Mỹ Tho is one of the biggest cities in the Mekong Delta, dotted with serene Buddhist pagodas and surrounded by dense rivers. Many great destinations for visitors have been established by the local government and private companies, serving thousands of tourists every day. We recommend this tour for those who want to get an overview of the Mekong Delta for a few delightful hours.

Can’t review our Vietnam trip of a life time because Covid destroyed our dreams but definite 5/5 for the people at Asianlink. Nothing was a problem. Gave us a credit when Covid first hit then when serious illness decided to raise its head never flinched. Gave us our money back without question. Can’t recommend enough.
