“Booked a 1hr tour for myself and my three teenage children and requested a pick up and drop off at our accommodation, which was agreed for an additional fee. Drivers arrived 15 mins early and then told me part way through the tour that we wouldn’t be returned back to our accommodation. Drivers English was difficult to understand and music was too loud to hear any instructions or commentary. Driving was erratic and we didn’t feel safe.

7.Authentic Mekong Delta: Tuk Tuk, Rowing Boat, Biking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★3.2 · 9 reviews · 8 hours · from $18Best value

Spend eight hours traveling from Ho Chi Minh City into the Mekong Delta, with a stop at Vinh Trang Pagoda, motorboat and rowing boat rides, a coconut candy workshop, tropical fruit, folk music, lunch, and small-group transport for up to 14 people.

“The best I can say is that this is a full day trip. However, it is simply being ferried from one tourist trap to another with no information given about what you're seeing. The boat ride is absolute chaos and it's frankly a miracle no one has been hurt. The guide we had was dreadful, he didn't check that people were able to see him to follow him before storming off and spent most time on his phone or chatting to other guides or tour operators. Save yourself a lot of money and avoid this awful excursion.”
