We were looking for a day tour from Can Tho that wasn’t just about the floating markets—and this tour delivered beyond expectations. Duy was a brilliant guide, super knowledgeable and very easy to talk to.
The Sadec flower village was beautiful—locals working in their gardens, fields of blooms stretching out like a painting. Then came Xeo Quyt forest: such a peaceful escape. Gliding in the small sampan under the forest canopy while hearing about its wartime history was unforgettable.
Visiting the pagoda and the house from The Lover gave the day a literary and historical twist I didn’t expect. We ended the trip with a home-style Vietnamese lunch that was delicious and fresh.
If you want something off the beaten path in the Mekong, go for this tour. Ask for Duy!
Minh a été un guide exceptionnel dès le départ. Toujours souriant, attentif et passionné par sa région. Nous avons adoré découvrir le village de fleurs de Sadec : une explosion de couleurs et de parfums dans un décor vraiment pittoresque.
Le moment le plus fort de la journée fut sans doute la forêt de Xeo Quyt. La balade en sampan à la rame dans cette forêt inondée est une expérience unique : paisible, mystérieuse, presque hors du temps.
La visite de la maison de Huynh Thuy Le, lieu réel de l’histoire de “L’Amant”, était aussi très émouvante. Minh nous a partagé plein de détails intéressants sur cette romance.
Et le déjeuner vietnamien… un vrai régal ! Une journée parfaite, merci Minh !
