I came to this agency by accident while I was struggling in the super touristy market of Mekong Delta tours. I felt so lucky! The tour did not disappoint at all. Our guide Jerry is very friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. I would like to thank Jerry a lot for guiding us through this wonderful day! Also thanks to Tom, skillful driver who navigated and maneuvered in the terrible traffic jam and got us home safely much earlier than it could have been. The family of Hien gave us the most astonishing lunch (a real feast) by the rice field (there are still 2-3 dishes missing from this photo, and this is for just 6 people). In the trip, we not only experienced local market, local religion and local production, but also different ways of local transportation. The tranquility (as well as lively buzzle) and beauty of Mekong Delta overwhelmed us. Such a wonderfully and painstakingly curated tour! And you can totally see why this tour is more expensive than the average Mekong Delta tours. There are simply soooo many people and so much work involved in this tour! For example the motorcyclists are local farmers who take side jobs when they are free, and they all look super happy about this job. It feels soothing to know that all these people are paid properly and don’t have to live begging for tips. All in all, very thankful to have met all these wonderful people! ❤️

We had an absolutely fantastic private Mekong Delta day tour with Real Mekong Tours. Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The itinerary was flexible, well-paced, and allowed us to truly experience the Mekong Delta beyond the usual tourist routes. Our guide Vuong did an outstanding job – very friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. He explained local life, culture, and history with great passion and made us feel welcome at all times. Visiting the beautiful villages and meeting local people was a real highlight of our Vietnam trip. If you are looking for an authentic, high-quality, and personal Mekong Delta experience, we can highly recommend Real Mekong Tours. Thank you again for this unforgettable day!

Our tour guide Tony gave appropriate inputs to have the process running smoothly. Very well organized day trip. Van seats could've been a little bit more comfortable. Overall, no complaints - good value for money. I would recommend this tour operator.

I absolutely recommend the Mekong Delta My Tho and Ben Tre. Our guide, Ms. Linda, was amazing—so knowledgeable, cheerful, and passionate about sharing local culture and traditions. She made the whole trip both fun and educational, and her enthusiasm was contagious! The day was filled with wonderful activities like boating along the tranquil canals, cycling through charming villages, and even laid on the green lushy both Nipa palm tree sides in the peaceful waterways. Visiting the local coconut candy house was fascinating, and tasting the fresh honey tea and tropical fruits was such a treat. Top up of this day, I’d immerse myself with beloved local people and sightsee deeply corner of Mekong image. The fruit and food on the tour were absolutely amazing—so fresh, flavorful, and refreshing! Every stop offered something new and exciting to taste. Thank you for the wonderful service, and I’m looking forward to more experiences like this. Keep up the great work!

We just returned from what I can honestly say was one of the best days of our lives — a full-day authentic Mekong Delta tour that felt more like a carefully crafted adventure than a standard excursion. It was me, my boyfriend, and his 70-year-old parents, and all four of us were completely blown away. From start to finish, the day was seamless. We weren’t herded through tourist traps or crowded spots — instead, we experienced the real Mekong Delta. We explored local markets, visited a dragon fruit farm, rode motorbikes through lush rice fields, shared lunch in a family’s home in a nearby village, and wandered through hidden corners of the Delta where there wasn’t another tourist in sight. We even rode tuk-tuk bikes! There were so many incredible moments that I genuinely can’t remember them all — and this was just yesterday. Every part of the day felt thoughtfully designed, with one surprise after another. My boyfriend’s parents said they hadn’t felt this alive in years, and my boyfriend and I both agreed it easily ranks in our top three travel experiences ever — and we’ve traveled the world. I almost want to tell anyone considering this tour: just book it. It’s that good. And then there was Jerry, our guide — truly the heart of the experience. Jerry spoke perfect English, was funny, smart, and made us feel like we were spending the day with a lifelong friend. He had the timing down perfectly: every stop was ready for us the moment we arrived, and everything flowed effortlessly. He anticipated every need — from snacks and local treats at each stop to ponchos in case of rain. My boyfriend is gluten-free and I’m vegetarian, and Jerry made sure we enjoyed incredible, authentic meals without a single compromise. We laughed all day, built inside jokes, and even met our sweet driver “Tom,” who — yes — paired perfectly with Jerry. “Tom and Jerry” made the day even more memorable! At the end of our 10-hour adventure, none of us wanted it to end. What started as a tour turned into an unforgettable experience — the kind that makes you feel connected to a place and its people in a way you can’t quite describe. We even gave Jerry our contact information and told him if he’s ever in LA or London, he has a place to stay. If you’re considering this tour — don’t hesitate. It’s pure magic.

From the moment I reached out to enquire about the 1 Day Private Tour, I was blown away by the responsiveness and professionalism of this company. I received an immediate reply via WhatsApp after leaving my phone number in the email – such a thoughtful touch! This level of care set the tone for what turned out to be one of the most memorable days of our trip. Our driver, Binh, and English-speaking guide, Quang, arrived right on time to pick us up from our hotel in Ho Chi Minh City. Quang’s impeccable English and polite, accommodating demeanor made it so easy to ask questions and learn about the fascinating culture and history of the region. The van was spacious, comfortable, and equipped with adjustable air conditioning – perfect for the warm weather – and they thoughtfully provided bottled water to keep us refreshed. The journey to the Mekong Delta was a beautiful adventure in itself. We stopped at a stunning temple in Gò Công and visited a bustling, authentic local food market where Quang surprised us with traditional Vietnamese snacks and fruits that my mother had mentioned wanting to try. This personal touch really stood out and made us feel incredibly special. A highlight of the day was visiting the Phi family’s home in the charming rural village of Tan Hoa. They warmly welcomed us and treated us to a motorbike tour of the area, including a visit to a dragon fruit farm. Tasting dragon fruit picked fresh that day was a treat I’ll never forget – it was the juiciest, most delicious dragon fruit I’ve ever had! Back at the family’s home, we enjoyed a delicious lunch of authentic Vietnamese cuisine and sampled homemade liquor courtesy of Mr. Shi. Feeding their adorable goats and taking in the breathtaking scenery provided countless opportunities for stunning photos. The adventure continued with a private boat ride along the Mekong Delta, culminating in a serene journey on a hand-rowed sampan. We also had the chance to see how coconut candy is made and indulged in some truly delicious coconut treats. Throughout the tour, we felt completely safe and well taken care of, thanks to the exceptional attention to detail from Quang and Binh. Their dedication shone through even after we returned to our hotel – I accidentally left my phone and hat in the van, and they went above and beyond to return them to me, battling terrible traffic to do so. I was truly touched by their kindness and commitment. This private tour was smooth, seamless, and filled with incredible experiences. From the responsiveness of the company to the exceptional service provided by Binh and Quang, every aspect exceeded my expectations. If you’re considering exploring the Mekong Delta, this tour is an absolute must. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

Excellent guide. A really awesome person who is extremely passionate about tourists and making sure they get the authentic experience and have fun. Everything was customised as we asked and there are also many simple little things make you feel great, such is getting you the authentic local coffee on a floating market or buying a watermelon for dinner once he learnt that we really like it. Great trip all in all.
