    Super suggested!

    I was surprised. It’s not only about food, he also speaks about all the aspects of local culture and even the Mekong river and he’s open to all questions. We tasted things that otherwise we wouldn’t have, he brought us in the real local places. The English level is veryyy good. Super suggested!

    Great tour!

    Great tour! It started to rain right before our tour started so Thomas took us in his car (which we didnot even think about that). He answered all of our questions and easily accommodated our diet as we are vegetarian. It is clear he knows a lot about Can Tho and Mekoong Delta region and showed us many serect authentic foods that we might never have found by ourself. Thank you, Tom.
