The 10 Best City Tours in Mekong Delta, Vietnam

April 23, 2022 Jacquiline Delozier

The Mekong Delta (Vietnamese: Đồng bằng Sông Cửu Long, "Nine Dragon river delta" or simply Vietnamese: Đồng Bằng Sông Mê Kông, "Mekong river delta"), also known as the Western Region (Vietnamese: Miền Tây) or the South-western region (Vietnamese: Tây Nam Bộ) is the region in southwestern Vietnam where the Mekong River approaches and empties into the sea through a network of distributaries. The Mekong delta region encompasses a large portion of southwestern Vietnam of over 40,500 square kilometres (15,600 sq mi). The size of the area covered by water depends on the season. The region comprises 12 provinces: Long An, Đồng Tháp, Tiền Giang, An Giang, Bến Tre, Vĩnh Long, Trà Vinh, Hậu Giang, Kiên Giang, Sóc Trăng, Bạc Liêu, and Cà Mau, along with the province-level municipality of Cần Thơ.

This was an excellent experience. The cruise on Halong Bay was fascinating. The stops to visit the cave and see the village were very interesting. The crew on the boat were helpful and accommodating. Our waiter, Lee, was particularly gracious.

Jordan our tour guide was fantastic, conducting and providing all information in both Vietnamese and English to accomodate for our group. He was friendly, proffessional and helpful- offering to take group pictures of us, helping us on and off of the boats and also ensuring there was a vegetarian friendly meal for myself. The tour itself was fantastic and well worth the money spent and deserving of a tip for all of his hard work and effort throughout the day! Couldn't recommend more, thank you Jordan! ????

They offer this great chat feature they entirely ignore. We saw the bus and it looked interesting, so we bought tickets. I wish we'd read reviews first. We purchased the 24 hour pass, but upon further inspection, the hours are between 5pm and 10pm. This seemed wrong, so I chatted and emailed them, never receiving a response. Then, Ho Chi Minh started to close some non-essential businesses due to a COVID risk, several of our other tours got cancelled, so we hit them up if it's available tomorrow... No response. I'm just glad it wasn't very expensive, but companies who are this irresponsible, who take your money and feel no obligation to manage expectations are irritating to me.

We had a guided tour arranged by our holiday tour operator. We were so glad we did , as you would not know much after. The ride was very exciting, but make sure you confirm the price for outgoing and returning. The lake is full of Lotus flowers in the summer.

The tour is great but it’s 2-2.5 hours from Saigon to Vung Tau. The beach is large but dirty. The statue of Jesus is very cool.
