Amazing experience with knowledgeable guide

Published on Jan, 2025

We had an amazing day being shown around by Ngân. We started our morning with being picked up and heading to the floating market. The boat ride was very comfortable and Ngân told us about the different produce, people and history of the market. We got to taste some of the different fruit and enjoyed a lovely bowl of noodle soup on the river. After we headed to a local rice noodle factory where we got to see the process of creating the rice noodles and the people behind it. Again Ngân was very helpful with any questions we had and even let us be part of the noodle process briefly. After this we cruised the river for a while longer and then jumped in our ride to the nature reserve. The ride took about an hour and was very comfortable. We arrived to a beautiful location full of plant life and a couple ducks. We proceeded with a small boat in the nature reserve and observed the serene water system, rice fields, different plants and birds. We really enjoyed the tranquility of the nature reserve and the boat ride. We then enjoyed a very delicious local lunch with different vegetables, spring rolls and delicious fruit before heading back to Can Tho. All in all we had an absolutely lovely tour with a absolutely lovely and knowledgeable guide. We would recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and local experience

Incredible nature and cultural experience

Published on Jan, 2025

We recently joined the tour offered by Mekong Realism, and it exceeded all our expectations! From start to finish, the entire journey was beautifully organized, offering a perfect mix of breathtaking nature and vibrant local culture. The visit to the nature reserve was a highlight, as we were surrounded by stunning landscapes and had the chance to see unique wildlife up close. It felt so peaceful, and Ngân, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable about the ecosystem. The floating market experience was truly unforgettable. Witnessing the bustling trade on the river was fascinating, and we loved interacting with the local vendors. This tour is a must for anyone visiting the Mekong Delta and is short on time — it’s an enriching, fun, and unforgettable way to experience the beauty and heart of this amazing region. Highly recommended!

Amazing tour in Mekong Delta

Published on Jan, 2025

Amazing experience with a delicious breakfast at the floating market. We had coffee, rice noodle soup and pineapple as desert from different boats. Super friendly people! Afterwards, we went to the local rice noodle factory. Final stop was the nature reserve with a picturesque landscape and rice fields. We saw many different birds while cruising through the tiny natural channels. We ended with an authentic local lunch which was very good - no issue to order vegetarian option. Transfer via boat and car was super smooth. In a nutshell we had a great time with our tour guide Ngan. She was super kind - explained everything and took wonderful pictures from us. Can’t recommend this tour enough.
