   Highly recommended

   We had already booked a tour with VeMekong in 2024, back then with the outstanding tour guide Lâm. Since we liked it so much, we booked another tour with him this year: Son islet and fruit garden On the half-day tour, we visited many wonderful people and places, all fascinating in their own way. Our tour guide always provided us with valuable information about all locations. Due to last-minute cancellations by other participants, we luckily and spontaneously had something like a private tour, which gave it a familial character. Also here, a shout-out to VeMekong for not canceling the tour because of fewer participants The tour and the guide are highly recommended to get an authentic impression of the Mekong Delta.

   Better Than I Expected—A Real Highlight

   Thomas was engaging and full of good stories. I loved the simplicity of the floating fish farms—how people make a life from the river. Then boom! Flying fish, laughter, clapping. It felt so alive. The walk through the fruit garden was super relaxing. Tried fruit I’ve never seen before in my life. Con Son islet is a peaceful corner of the world, and I’m grateful to have seen it with this crew.

   Warm Hearts and Wild Fish

   From start to finish, this tour gave me so many emotions. Minh was an angel—knowledgeable and kind. The fish farmers were so open to sharing, and I felt so welcome. Seeing the snakehead fish fly was hilarious and thrilling. But the calm in the orchard was my favorite moment. Just me, the guide, and a jackfruit bigger than my head. This is the kind of tourism I want to support.

   Community-Based Tourism Done Right

   Big shoutout to Lâm for guiding such a heartfelt tour. You could tell this wasn’t staged—it was locals genuinely sharing their lives. I found the floating fish homes particularly moving. The flying fish show? Absolutely mental, I loved it. The orchard was lush and peaceful, and I stuffed myself with rambutans and jackfruit. This tour made me feel like I actually met the Mekong, not just passed through it.

   Immersed in the River’s Heart

   David was such a considerate guide—he explained everything so well and was patient with all our questions. The floating fish farms were fascinating, but the snakehead show was my highlight—c'est incroyable! The peaceful walk through the fruit garden reminded me of my grandparents' farm. I loved that this wasn’t a touristy show, but an authentic peek into daily life.

   A Floating World Full of Surprises

   I never imagined fish could fly—until today. Chris led us with calm professionalism and humor, weaving in stories about river life that brought everything to life. The floating homes were humbling to see, and I truly appreciated how respectful the tour was to the locals. The tropical fruit picking was fun (and tasty), and the boat rides made me feel like I was drifting through a dream. A perfect afternoon.

   Mekong Magic in Just a Few Hours

   I didn’t know it was possible to experience this much in just one afternoon. Minh was kind and knowledgeable, and everything flowed naturally. The floating fish farms were eye-opening, and I loved how we could talk directly with locals. The snakehead fish show was something I’ll tell all my friends about! And those longan and mangosteen fruits… fresh from the trees! What a gem of a tour.

   Great Balance of Culture, Fun & Scenery

   I did this tour in the afternoon and it was perfect timing—golden light on the river, cool breeze. Hannah was friendly, fluent, and shared stories about local families that made everything feel more personal. The boat ride was calm and scenic. The fish show? Hilarious and unique. And I could’ve stayed in that orchard all day! Great value for money and truly a cultural immersion.

   Floating Homes, Flying Fish & Fresh Fruits

   Hieu is a fantastic guide! His love for the Mekong region shines through everything he says. The floating fish farms opened my eyes to the resilience of river communities. I laughed so hard watching the snakehead fish jump—it was like a circus on water! Picking fresh tropical fruit was a sweet ending to the tour. I felt relaxed, welcomed, and inspired throughout. Don’t miss this one!

    Relaxing, Fun, and Unexpectedly Deep

    I didn’t think a short afternoon tour could leave such a big impression. Thomas was amazing—he explained the local traditions and lifestyles with so much heart. The floating fish farms were fascinating, and I had never imagined fish could be trained to “fly”! The orchard walk was peaceful, and I loved how the local farmers welcomed us. Vietnam keeps surprising me in the best ways.
