Really enjoyed this tour, Tri our guide was fantastic and had a great personality. Of all the tours in Vietnam this was my wife's favorite. They did a great job of coordinating and it felt like our 5 hours in Ben Tre flew by. My two daughters 6 and 8 had a blast as well. We thought there was ample time on each section of the tour, we saw very few tour groups which was the major reason I choose this over other tours. If you want to get an depth view of the Mekong delta choose this tour.

Excellent day trip to discover how people live by the Mekong led by such a kind and sunny guide, Helen ! We could see how to make bricks, chocolate, coco candies, mat, via different ways of transportation, such as boat, sampa, bikes etc definitely worth it, i had an amazing day away from the frenzy of the city !

.. thought the whole tour was well structured to offer unique experiences .. loved the drive into the Mekong to view the river system and lush greenery .. local boats on the water brought us up close to the vegetation and village life .. our time in the village provided insights into eco-friendly brick production, coconut confectionery, chocolate making and a great lunch, eating an elephant ear fish from their fish farm ..

Me and my daughter just loved our trip to mekong river delta with Tri as our guide. Tri was very welcoming, gave us lots of interesting background on the area and took us to some wonderful spots. We also had a tasty lunch at a local place. All boats were great and comfortable and we could only highly recommend this tour to any of our friends and relatives.

We just finished a wonderful tour of the Mekong Delta and Ben Tre with our guide Typhoon Honey. Our group included my Vietnamese mother, myself, my teenage daughter, and my husband -- 3 generations of Vietnamese women. This is my mother's 4th trip back to her home country -- 1st trip for me and my daughter. I can't compare it to any other Mekong Delta tours as this is our first trip to Vietnam and our only trip to the Mekong Delta, but if you want a more personal experience in the Mekong Delta away from the cattle buses and crowds of tourists, this is the tour for you. Typhoon Honey was funny and charismatic and very informative about the countryside and the culture along the way. He gave us a first class tour. We had such a lovely time at the honey farm where we had some tea with honey, kumquat, bee pollen, and green tea, and we tried some coconut candy. My 82-year-old mother rode the Tuk Tuk while my husband, my daughter, and I followed the Tuk Tuk on bicycles through the village of Ben Tre, and we absolutely loved it. It was so beautiful and so easy to understand why the people of the Mekong Delta love living there. Between the motorboat ride to Ben Tre and the sampan ride back to our shuttle, we enjoyed 3 hours along the Mekong Delta with a picture perfect coconut frond canopy from both sides of the river. We couldn't ask for more. This is what we came for. Along with the Cu Chi Tunnel Rice Paper Village tour to Ben Duoc that we took the other day, this has brought back so many happy memories for my mother and has helped give my daughter a connection to this beautiful country where her grandmother was born and where her grandmother and grandfather met and fell in love. So many wonderful memories made today thanks to An Tours and Typhoon Honey.
