    Totally worth it

    Hieu was a fantastic guide this morning. We toured the floating market in a small boat and breakfast on the water. We visited a local canal and village that raises seedlings to sell to farmers. He was so informative and answered all our questions.

    An afternoon with lots of stories with Lâm

    Great tour and tour guide. I was traveling alone and in the off season so had to pay for two. But it was well worth it to basically have an individual tour guide. Learned so much about the Mekong river, its people, farms, canals, pagodas, floating market and so much more. Thank you for enriching my experience in Can Tho!
