  We had amazing 3 days with David. He is a lot of fun and tells you a lot about the life in the Mekong Delta. We had a bike tour through Can Tho, saw different farms of lotus, dragonfruit, cocoa, went to the floating market, night market, national park and much more. Would definitely book all tours with him again. Besides being a good and fun tour guide he also has an amazing voice why he is also called Adelevid :-D

  Tom was an amazing tour guide! It’s was only me and one friend and we got to interact with our tour guide and the locals much more. Tom was very knowledgeable, kind and funny. Tom supports the locals by booking small boats and helping them make their living for the day. Our day was fun filled and packed with things to see here and there and got try food in the floating market. Would recommend!

  The tour with David was absolutely fantastic! With a small wooden boat, groups are limited to a maximum of 4 people (+ guide and boat driver), making the experience very personal. We didn’t just visit the famous floating market but also explored a cocoa farm and watched the process of making rice paper. David shared fascinating stories and gave us an authentic insight into Vietnamese culture and his homeland. If you’re planning a tour in the Mekong Delta, go with David – highly recommended!

  Best tour we could’ve imagined going to Mekong Delta. Being unsure about which tour to choose, Mekong Lifes Travel gave us such an unique experience! The staff was extremely friendly and supportive, before, during and after the trip. You can really feel the passion the guides have about being tour guides and showing us as much as they could. Being just two of us on a boat with our guide and our boat driver, we were taken to the floating market before continuing to see how rice noodles and paper are made and then to a cocoa farm. During the whole time, there were mostly no other tourists as we made our way through the rivers and walked around the countryside. The organization supports local business and you can tell they are trying to get the best out of the tours for both locals and tourists. I cannot recommend going on the tour often enough and it surely has been one of the best experiences of my time in Vietnam. Thank you, David and Tom!

  We booked a floating market tour directly via WhatsApp and spent half a day with Jade in Can Tho. This was a super lovely day with so many great impressions. She told us extensively about life in the market, vietnam in general and what we saw in the mekong area. We had to get up early in the morning for the trip and Jade, and even though we might appeared a bit sleepy and grumpy in the morning, she kept our mood in an all time high. At the market we got breakfast, fruit and coffee, got in one of the boats for a pine apple. Then we also saw a rice noodle work shop where we could help and see how this works. Additionally we made a stop at a cocoa farm and tasted a sip of the freshly made cocoa. Also a trip through the small canals. All in a boat with a super lovely local boat driver. This was such a great trip, Jade was so welcoming and knowledgable and never tired of our many questions. Totally recommend this tour. We made some great memories and super corny couple‘s photos lol

  We booked a sunset tour with david and were absolutely thrilled. Admiring the sunset from the sampan boat was an experience in itself. But David also made the visit to the night market and the subsequent dinner a highlight. We definitely recommend Mekong Lifes Travel!

  We really enjoyed the tour with Tai. It was so interesting to see the life on the Mekong. We had a nice breakfast, coffee and pineapple on the boat. Making ricenoodles, trying coconut candy and learning about the chocolate production was super fun. Tai was giving us so much informations and we really now know more about the region. It was a half day full of fun. We can highly recommend the tour to everybody.
