A great tour that gave us some good insight into Vietnam. It's a crazy place, full of amusing contradictions with very friendly people.

I went on the 5 day Saigon and South West Vietnam tour and it was excellent. The communication all the way through was good and i enjoyed every last bit of the trip which was interesting and power packed with adventure.

It is our second time in Vietnam, and again the trip was amazing. We had a relaxing time on the beach, the weather was perfect, and the hotel we stayed in was comfortable and right by the beach. The activities in Ho Chi Minh were also interesting, big thanks to our guide, who took great care of us. We loved everything!

Vietnam Holiday In 10 days - Private Tour

10 wonderful days in Vietnam. Great places, accommodation, and services. Great assistant from Emilia.

Ho Chi Minh City - Mekong Delta - Cu Chi Tunnels 4 Days 3 Nights

While the tour was for 3 consecutive days The guide and group were different each day. The company arranged for an extra night accommodation and airport pick up and drop off. Extremely easy to work with. Punctual, flexible and approachable. Totally reliable. The first tour was the cyclo around the city. This also included art centre and souvenir shops which, like alot of Vietnam especially the markets there is a lot of pressure to buy something. It was fun I don't remember the guides name but she was kind and knowledgeable. The next day was the highlight of the tour. The Mekong Delta the guide was Vu and she was awesome. Her English was perfect.,her style easy friendly fun with an excellent sense of humour approachable, organised related to everyone in the group even with diversity in cultures. Loved it. Would recommend this tour. Day 3 was CuChi tunnels with Ken, again a well organised, run informative tour, another great day and guide.

Mekong Delta Tour 3 Days 2 Nights - Fast Boat to Cambodia

Our tour was excellent. The tour guide Rah was fun, had good humour & shared lots of information.

Bikes and Boats Mekong Delta Family Tour

An amazing route through the farmlands of Southern Vietnam. The Mr. Biker team was very supportive and accommodating. I can't wait to join them on a multi-day tour in the northern mountains this winter!!

Mekong Delta "Eye- Popping" Cycling Tour

Probably the best cycle tour we have been on. The whole trip was memorable. Each day was slightly different with excellent places to visit and fantastic sights, smells and experiences. From banana trees, coconut trees and rice fields, we got a real feel for the Mekong. We did lots of ferries and back roads too. Trọng, our guide was especially good with his local/cultural knowledge and he tailored the trip perfectly to our ability and needs. He chose all routes and food. The accommodation was a great mix of locations and styles. I would recommend this to anyone who has a reasonable cycle ability. The routes are all very flat, so manageable in the hot days. Fruit and drinks are provided as necessary. The bikes are good quality mountain bikes.

What people love about Mekong Delta Tours from Ho Chi Minh City

We knew the tour didn't really take us up the Mekong by boat before we booked as we had asked and been informed that a lot of the journey was on minibus. This could be made clearer on the tour description

It was a great experience to discover Vietnam via bike. Leo and Dang were really kind. Our guide Leo provided a lot of background information and adopted stops and breaks according to our needs. The bikes were good and everything worked out very well. The local food was delicious. They always found a vegetarian dish as well. Be aware that dinner is only included on 2 days. But since it is not too expensive to find something and it is also nice to the discover the surrounding of the hotel, it was ok. The hotels were really nice and above standard. The tour was not too exhausting. We extended the distance on the last day. Looking back we should have done this on the other days as well, to reduce the bus transfer times.

Wow, what a tour!! We travelled to Vietnam from the UK for a wedding, but wanted to pack in some adventures too and this tour was an absolute highlight. Our cycle tour guide was Ut, who was fantastic, we couldn't have asked for a better companion for the trip. The set up of the trip is that you are driven to a starting location, and then throughout the trip the car is always 15 minutes away: this is a great set up as it allows the cycling guide to ensuring you cycle a decent, but not uncomfortable distance, which can be tailored to your fitness/the weather etc. We were expecting a large-ish size group of us, but in actuality the tours typically operate for smaller groups, so we had a private tour! We were able to take all of our luggage with us no problem (wedding outfits and all!) as this stayed with the car during the day and with us in our hotel room at night. The first hotel was just fine, had everything we needed; the second hotel was really quite special, more than we expected! Throughout the days there were frequent stops for fruit, drinks, desserts, meeting locals, so although it was very hot and sweaty, there was plenty of time to rest and dry off. Every time we met back at the car (e.g. for a short drive to lunch spot) we would be given ice cold water and a cold wet wipe which was both practically very useful and also such a treat after cycling in the sun! The lunch stops were at fantastic homestays where we had some of the best meals of our whole trip to Vietnam. Ut ensured we ate very (very!) well, even with one of us being vegan. A real personal highlight was the 5am floating market in Can Tho which we visited with Ut by boat before starting our cycling for the day. The whole trip was very flexible based on what we had desire/energy for, and we were in very good hands with Ut. We would absolutely do this trip again, and will be recommending it to friends for many years to come!

Mekong Delta

Buzzing with longtail taxi boats and crowded with barges piled with mangoes, pineapples and fresh fish, a mekong delta tour is all about getting to know the rhythms of life on the water..

Our Mekong Delta tour showcases the majestic Mekong river, the world’s twelfth-longest river, running 4,000 miles from the snowy Himalayas to the steamy South China Sea, and meandering through six countries along the way. Though its upper reaches are remote and unpopulated, by the time it reaches Vietnam, the Mekong is a positive hive of human activity, fanning out into a vast cobweb of distributaries as it makes its way to the ocean.

This is the Mekong Delta: equivalent in size and population to The Netherlands, it’s by far the most agriculturally productive region in Vietnam, putting fish, fruit and rice on the tables of the country’s 100 million people. The myriad waterways of the delta make the boat the perfect means of exploration, and one that enables you to get amongst the buzzing longtail taxi boats and crowded with barges piled with mangoes, pineapples and fresh fish, floating between mangroves and paddy fields. We also recommend hopping ashore to explore the countless temples and stilt villages on foot, haggle for snacks and handicrafts at the floating markets, and cycle through farmlands dotted with coconut palms. Though the more tourist-centric villages and markets are best avoided, it’s easy to escape the crowds: just a short boat trip down a quiet waterway or a cycle ride into the countryside will quickly reveal an entirely different and satisfyingly authentic side of life on the water. Discover our unforgettable Mekong Delta tour for yourself.

Connects with

Ho Chi Minh City

The yin to Hanoi’s yang, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon to its friends) offers a more internationally minded counterpoint to that northern bastion of tradition — not to mention an exciting base from which to explore Vietnam’s most interesting war sites.

About mekong delta.

The Mekong Delta is a special area with its web of rivers, houseboats and floating markets. Life here mainly takes place on the water and from a boat you can see villages, rice fields and the daily life of local families pass you by. A visit to the Mekong Delta is therefore the absolute highlight of a trip through South Vietnam.

Frequently asked questions about Mekong Delta tours

You can visit the Mekong Delta in 1 day, but we recommend staying there for at least 1 night.

If you have little time in Vietnam and you have to make choices, a one-day tour can be a great option. The Mekong Delta is not far from Ho Chi Minh City, so you can get a good impression in a one day tour. If you want to visit the floating markets and more the local villages where day-trip travelers do not come, we recommend that you go for two days.

The Mekong Delta is gigantic, so before you consider how to travel here, it is important to consider where you want to travel to. There are daily buses to Can Tho, Cai Be, Ben Tre, My Tho and Chau Doc, among others. Many travelers choose to take a Mekong Delta tour, so that you do not have to arrange transport to the delta yourself, but also between the sights.

10 Mekong Delta tours highlight

1. Boat trip

The best way to see a gigantic river delta is by boat tour. Sail the big rivers with a motor boat and row a sampan through the small canals.

2. Floating markets

The Mekong has a unique life on the water. You can also visit floating markets here where hundreds of boats come together.

The flat delta, with little traffic, is perfect for exploring by bicycle. Cycle the small roads from village to village.

7. Picking fruit

Most of the fruit in Vietnam comes from the Mekong Delta. Visit fruit orchards and pick your own fruit to eat immediately.

8. Climb Sam Mountain

More a hill than a mountain, you can visit this religious site for a nice view and visit the temples.

9. Bang Lang stork garden

Another beautiful nature reserve that is home to many different birds, but especially storks can be found here.

10. Vinh Trang Pagoda

The largest pagoda in the Mekong is built with a combination of different cultures.

Mekong Delta is naturally carpeted in a dizzying array of greens. This is a water world where floating houses, boats and markets float upon the innumerous canals, rivers, and streams that intersect on the landscape like arteries.

The charming beauty of the Mekong Delta and unique local living patterns have resulted in major tourist attractions including some luxuriant fruit orchards, well-known floating markets, mangrove forests Buddhist temples and Khmer pagodas, off-coast islands. The bustling commerce of its own town is opposite sharply to the almost-soporific and languid pace of the rural life. 

Discover the best and fancy things of Mekong from one of these tours.
