    A Dreamlike Day Immersed in Nature and History

    From the very start, our guide Duy made this tour truly exceptional. Picking us up right on time in Sa Dec City, Duy’s warm welcome set the tone for an unforgettable day. Walking through the Sadec flower village felt like wandering in a vibrant dream — the colors and fragrances of dahlias, orchids, and countless flowers filled the air. Duy’s storytelling brought the village’s rich horticultural traditions alive, making it so much more than just a visual treat. Then, gliding silently on the hand-rowing sampan through the mysterious Xeo Quyt forest was like stepping back in time — the quiet canopy hiding Viet Cong bunkers was powerful and moving. Visiting the Huynh Thuy Le Ancient house and Kien An Cung pagoda rounded out the experience perfectly, with Duy sharing charming insights about the famous novel “The Lover.” This tour was a beautiful blend of nature, history, and culture, and Duy’s passion truly made it come alive.

    So Much Beauty, So Much Emotion

    This tour is short but unforgettable. Thomas met us right on time and kept the mood relaxed but informative. The flower village was unreal—like someone painted the whole town with blossoms. The Xeo Quyt forest was mesmerizing, especially knowing what happened there. You could feel the weight of history while floating quietly under that green canopy. And the ancient house had such romantic charm. A wonderful contrast of colors, silence, and emotion all packed into one perfect morning.
