Dani –
Great way to spend an early morning. We had a lovely morning on the water and Grace was a great guide. The ride out was a little longer than expected as there was quite a bit of chop from the bigger, faster boats. It gave us a good taste of the markets without having to visit any other tourist attractions as we had our 10 month old baby with us, this was perfect. I would recommend!

I would highly recommend this agency to anybody who would like to experience the local lifestyle in the Mekong delta! Since everybody in the team was so welcoming and professional we decided to do more than one activity. Firstly we went to the rice fields and we were thought of rice sowing in the most traditional way, talking with locals, having food and sight seeing with our amazing guide Qui who was one of the best guys in this profession I’ve ever seen. The second trip we had was in a cacao farm, where we could follow every step in the process of chocolate making. Therefore we went to an amazing national park, sight seeing the habitat of many bird species, while floating. This day we had Jackie as a tour guide who was also extremely informative and friendly. Big shout out tho the whole team of this agency!
