    Hidden gems of the Mekong

    처음 베트남을 방문했는데 벤째 투어가 정말 인상 깊었습니다. 가이드는 Chris였고, 매우 친절하고 한국어도 조금 할 줄 알아서 편했어요. 코코넛 공방에서 직접 시식도 해보고, 시골길을 Xe Lôi로 달리는 경험은 정말 새로웠습니다. 점심도 정성 가득한 느낌이었어요.
    시내의 소음에서 벗어나고 싶은 분들께 강추합니다!

    Family-friendly and full of local charm

    Traveling with two young kids can be tricky, but this tour was perfectly paced for us. Our guide Hannah was so great with the children – she showed them how coconut candy is made, let them try weaving mats, and made the Xe Lôi ride feel like an adventure. The boat trips were relaxing and lunch was authentic and tasty. The transfer both ways was seamless, and everyone had fun.

    Highly recommended for families!
