A Boating experience like no other
What an amazing experience. My
Partner and I went on the Can Tho Wildlife Tour. Both the driver and the guide ( spoke amazing English) were very friendly and a blast to be around. The sights we saw were breathtaking and the boat driver although he didn’t speak English was super welcoming and up for a laugh.
High recommend for anyone who’s up to see some amazing sights in nature
