    1. Tasia H

      Very good experience. Our guide Jackie is very good professional, polite, clever, and simphatic. He speaks very good English and he knows lots of details. We learn a lot of things with him. I highly recommend to choose them. They know very well how to organize an authentic tour for knowing Mekong. Thank you

    2. Mateusz S

      We took a 3-hour tour focused mainly on the famous (though not so touristy) floating market on the Can Tho’s Mekong delta. Our guide was Jackie who’s a lovely, fun and enthusiastic young local who speaks great English (thus, you can learn a great deal from him not only about the tour’s content but Vietnam at large). Everything went smooth and as according to the schedule.

      The tour was full of experiences (the floating market, a lovely boat ride through picturesque canal on the river, fresh carved fruit snacks or breakfast), but not too exhausting. The company works with a range of local producers and people, so you actually feel like your visit makes a positive impact to this intangible heritage gem. If we’d have a chance, we’d definitely take other, longer tours with Jackie. Thanks for this great experience!
