After getting picked up at the hotel, the tour departed from a central Ho Chi Minh City pier by speedboat, which I found to be nice while taking perhaps less time than traveling by van and getting stuck in the traffic. The Mekong Delta is a vast region and this tour focuses on less touristy spots, thus allowing for a more authentic experience. The biking part through orchards and canals and also having lunch in a local family’s place were for me the highlights. The food was delicious, varied and very well prepared. Guide Andy was great and the speedboat seemed a very safe way to travel. I had an excellent impression of the tour company. In the end, there was also a tuc-tuc and a sampan short ride, which was fun. To sum up, a very pleasant day trip!

We had a fantastic day trip to Mekong Delta with Fisheye travel. Our Tour Guide Andy met us in our hotel lobby and we had a short ride to the pier. The speed boat were waiting for us and they offered water, fruits and a nice snack and of course a life west for everybody. It was quiet interesting to see Saigon from the river, but be warned, you can see a lot of litter and poor houses and sometimes it smelled awfully bad. The boat ride was a big fun, really fast. We had two stops with riding a bicycle, visiting a shrimp farm, tofu tasting and we had delicious lunch with a local family. in the end we did a ride on a local wooden boat which brought us back to our speed boat. Thanks a lot for a cool, varied and thrilling day. Just a small advice, wear plastic flip-flops because you can clean them very easy and you need a lot of sunscreen Anja. Micha and Jessi

We recently finished an awesome full-day tour of the Mekong Delta and Cu Chi tunnels with Fisheye. Going on a speedboat ride was a remarkable and stress-free experience as we avoided the traffic. Our tour guide, Danny, was very knowledgeable and passionate about Vietnamese culture and history, providing us with insightful information throughout the tour. Fisheye organized everything seamlessly, making the trip hassle-free with no tourist traps or unexpected surprises. During our Mekong Delta trip, we didn't even encounter any other tourists. If it's within your budget, I strongly recommend using this company.

We did the full day Mekong Delta Tour and it was amazing. Our tour guide Tom was well spoken when it came to providing information about the areas we visited, historical information and made the trip well worth it. We met some friendly and courteous locals who showed us a side of Vietnam that you would not usually see. We visited lots of interesting places and landmarks that you would only see on a tour like this. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience Vietnam to its full potential!

Fantastic! We did the Full Day Mekong River by Speedboat tour with Fisheye Travel on Oct. 20th. It was a private excursion, as there were no others booked for this tour that day. Vicky was an outstanding guide – knowledgeable, personable, and thoughtful. We appreciated her ability to highlight interesting sights and cultural details and to answer our questions. We had a lot of fun together that day. Thank you, Vicky! We were picked up promptly at our hotel in District 1, taken by taxi to the speedboat, and offered fruit, pastry and water soon after our adventure began. Vicky told us lots about the various districts of Ho Chi Minh City as we boated past them. Not long after leaving the city, we stopped at a small village with a traditional market offering live fish, chickens, frogs, and more fresh meat sources, as well as a wide range of produce. We loved the interactions between the local people and how friendly they were towards us as visitors. It was definitely the best market experience we had during our two weeks in Vietnam and Cambodia – much different in feel from the larger, busier city markets. Then we visited the home and small business operation of a man who makes tofu, soya milk and other related products, and he showed us his work area and the stages of production. We also got to see some shrimp he is raising in a pond behind his house. After that, we pedalled a short distance and saw people working in the rice paddies and then visited a Cao Dai temple. We biked back and had freshly made and tasty soya milk, tea and rice crackers. After a longer boat ride with great sights, we left the boat and walked through a garden area, boarded a small sampan to go a short distance up a small Delta channel, and then walked through an orchard area. We rode in a truck tuk tuk to where we had a delicious lunch prepared by a local family. Afterwards, we visited a lovely Buddist pagoda with beautiful structures and a peaceful atmosphere. Our return by speedboat took about two hours, and it was nice to get a second look at the interesting boats and sights along the river banks. We found Fisheye to be a professional company. This excursion was booked before coming to Vietnam. Sandy was quick and thorough in answering all of our questions, and we felt comfortable about our decision to go ahead with Fisheye. The deposit process to hold our booking was easy. Fisheye has developed an itinerary for this excursion that seems less “touristy”. Great stops and experiences have been selected to give natural insights into the lives of rural Vietnamese people and to really see the landscape of the Mekong Delta. We highly recommend it!

picked up promptly by our guide, Kate, who was so delightful. Catered for our every need, very informative all day. Our trip was off the tourist track and covered all Vietnam has to offer on the Mekong.

Group of 9 (5 adults, 4 teens) did a half day Cu Chi Tunnels tour followed the next day by a Full day Mekong Delta tour by speedboat. A wonderful way to experience both. Danny was our guide at Cu Chi and he was extremely knowledgeable and helped educate us on the life of Vietnamese soldiers. Tom was our guide on the Mekong Delta where we visited a local village market, a village where they produce tofu and farm shrimp, went for a ride on bikes through a village and then rode a sampan and tuk tuk to a local house where we had lunch. There were also opportunities to visit a pegoda and sample rice wine. Tom made the trip very easy and relaxed and offered lots of options along the way eg riding on the back of a scooter if you did not want to ride a bike. The 2 hour boat trip back to HCMC felt quite long but you have to travel that far to experience the Mekong.

We went on the full day tour with a group of 6, and we all had an unbelievably great time! Our tour guide Harley was amazing! She was very well versed in everything we asked about, and each person we met throughout the day exceeded any expectations we had for the activity. Highly recommend this group for the full day Mekong trip!

I was recently in Saigon on business and had never been out to the Mekong Delta. My visits to Vietnam over the past few years, on business, meant I had limited time for sightseeing and all the tours are full day, so just couldn't do it. When I heard about the speedboat tour for half day, I jumped at it. What I didn't realise at the time was it also meant we got to enjoy cycling through the countryside and learning about local business then enjoy a gorgeous lunch with a local family. All that and I was back to catch my plane at 4pm. Thanks Fisheye and Andy.

Couldn’t recommend more highly the full day trip by speedboat to Mekong Delta. Pick up at our hotel at 7:30am and tf to nearby speedboat. We were a group of 6 so no others along with us, but we had wonderful, enthusiastic and knowledgable guides in Nhi and Kevin. Lots to look at along the way to a village where we chose not to ride bikes to a temple but learned about rice growing, shrimp farming, burial customs and the making of tofu with a local family, along with a snack. More travel on speedboat to a local home we could wander around, on to a Buddhist monastery by tuk tuk and then lunch at a local home. The most AMAZING food and so much of it. A ride in a sampan took us back to speedboat for return trip to Saigon at about 5pm. Thanks Nhi and Kevin for a wonderful day, we fell in love with you and the Mekong.

Taking part in the "Full day Original Mekong Delta by Speedboat" was a great experience. We could not have spent the day in a better way. Our guide Danny and his team made sure we had everything we needed at all times, and gave us useful and interesting information throughout the day. We loved the variety of activities, and how smooth everything was planned. Boat trip, visiting farmers, bike cycling, visit temple and pagoda, private lunch with tasty local food etc. The visits to the local families was well arranged, and they were all very open and hospitable. The visits gave an interesting insight in rural life without you feeling invading their private life. We enjoyed every bit of the day, and got so many great shoots. We can warmly recommend a full day with Fisheye travel for a day full of great experiences.

My husband and I did the morning chi chi tunnels and I accidentally got picked up by the wrong tour group (language barrier ) and realised 10min into the drive, he turned around and our guide Danni was still waiting at our hotel for us. I was so grateful as I thought they might go without us. Danny was very informative and we learnt a lot from the boat ride and through the tunnels. The next day we did the full day Mekong River and absolutely loved it the local family’s we visited made us feel so welcome and the lunch was unreal. I have not ridden a push bike in about 30years but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I am glad we paid the extra money and did this tour as you get everything they say and more. If I could give them 6 stars I would
