From the moment Minh welcomed us at Ben Tre, his passion for the Mekong region shone through. Cruising the river and gliding past endless rows of coconut palms was mesmerizing — a true feast for the eyes. Visiting the traditional brick kiln was an incredible insight into local industry and history, seeing centuries-old techniques still in use today. The coconut workshop was a highlight: tasting fresh candy and learning about the many coconut products made me appreciate the ingenuity of the locals. The Xe Loi tuk tuk ride was both thrilling and culturally rich, speeding through villages and lush countryside. The home-cooked elephant ear fish lunch was fresh and flavorsome, served in a beautiful garden filled with flowers and laughter. Rowing the sampan gently through narrow canals at day’s end was the perfect way to reflect on a day full of discovery. Minh’s warmth and knowledge made this tour unforgettable.
Lam’s warm, friendly demeanor made us feel welcome from the start. Cruising through the coconut canals, the serene beauty of the Mekong Delta unfolded around us — shimmering water, bright green palms, and glimpses of daily village life. The traditional brick kiln stop gave us a window into centuries-old craftsmanship; watching the slow, careful process was fascinating. At the coconut candy workshop, tasting the sweet treats and learning about the different uses of coconut left a lasting impression. The Xe Loi tuk tuk ride was an exhilarating change of pace, weaving through peaceful villages with locals going about their day. The home-cooked lunch of elephant ear fish was delicious, enjoyed in a fragrant garden setting. The peaceful sampan ride at the end of the day allowed us to absorb the calm and beauty of this unique place. Lam’s stories brought depth and heart to the experience.
