    Peaceful Canal Ride & Lively Market – Loved Every Moment

    This tour was one of the best experiences of my trip! The small canal ride was so peaceful, and the floating market had a great selection of fruits and local foods. Our guide was friendly and explained everything in detail. The only downside was that it ended too soon—I could have stayed longer! Our guide, Duy, was warm, welcoming, and had a great way of making everyone feel involved in the experience

    Authentic and Eye-Opening – Wish It Was a Bit Longer

    The boat ride through the floating market was a unique experience. The highlight for me was the nursery plantation, where we saw how locals grow and care for their plants. I just wish the tour was a bit longer so we could spend more time in the village. Our guide, David, was energetic, passionate, and had a deep knowledge of the local way of life, which made the tour even more fascinating
