I was looking for a day trip from Can Tho that didn’t involve markets or too much rush, and this was just perfect. Thomas was our guide and he was wonderful—calm, friendly, and very easy to connect with.
The flower village was a delight. What I loved most was that it wasn’t just for show—this is a real working village, and we got to walk right into it.
Xeo Quyt felt like a movie set at first, but it was real, and Thomas shared its past with gentle honesty. Floating through the trees and vines was both magical and humbling.
We visited the Huynh Thuy Le house and nearby temple with enough time to really enjoy the details. The story of The Lover added a very human layer to the visit.
And lunch? So good! Light, local, and full of flavor. I’d do this tour again in a heartbeat.
J’ai été profondément touché par cette journée. Minh était un guide formidable, très respectueux, discret mais toujours là pour répondre à nos questions.
Le village des fleurs de Sadec était un enchantement – on se croyait dans un autre monde. Des fleurs partout, dans toutes les couleurs, entretenues avec soin par les habitants.
La forêt de Xeo Quyt fut un moment suspendu. Le silence, le sampan qui glisse lentement, les racines immergées, les arbres immenses… et les bunkers camouflés. Minh nous a expliqué avec justesse l’histoire de ce lieu, sans dramatiser, mais avec émotion.
La maison de Huynh Thuy Le, liée à Marguerite Duras, était une belle surprise.
Et le repas ? Simple, local, délicieux. Merci Minh pour cette belle parenthèse hors du temps.
