Xin Chào! My name is Xuan. It is pronounced as "soon". It means springtime when all things are fresh and alive. I grew up in the beautiful and majestic Mekong Delta, about 2,5 hours by car from Ho Chi Minh City. As a child I was captivated by the delta's long rivers with its lively floating markets. There are many rice paddies and fruits orchards in the various parts of the Mekong Delta. I enjoyed exploring these interesting places. So, I grew up loving this region and always wanted to show this beautiful part of Vietnam to tourists. I studied tourism in Can Tho University and graduated in 2012. After graduation I moved to Ho Chi Minh City and became a freelance tour guide. It was a dream come true. I love travelling, meeting new people, and exploring new cultures. I have been to several countries in Europe, Asia and Oceania. My travels abroad have re-enforced my desire to be a capable and responsible tour guide. To see the world is to live life to the fullest. I hope you have the same travelling passion as I have. Please visit my beautiful homeland Vietnam. I specialize in tours around Ho Chi Minh City and Mekong Delta. I will tell you the history of my country. I will show you the culture of my people and the flora and fauna of the land. I will introduce to you the local cuisine. You will definitely leave Vietnam with a fulfilled-sense of wonder and happiness. It will be unforgettable experience! I look forward to meeting you in Vietnam!

Overview of your Ho Chi Minh City tour

The Mekong Delta is truly paradise! Located west of Ho Chi Minh City, it spans a large area dotted with many towns and villages. The delta offers plenty of orchards, fields, plantations, and swamp lands. We will visit Can Tho which are the best places to explore the untouched and natural landscapes of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. Relax on a local boat to visit the country’s biggest floating market and have a relaxed walk or bike through lush farms and tranquil villages.

Your Ho Chi Minh City tour itinerary

* Take an early boat ride to experience the biggest floating market in Vietnam. We will see hundreds of local boats trading fruits, vegetables and other farm products and enjoy a fresh, delicious pineapple on a local boat where we can get a full view of the floating market. * Visit a typical traditional wet market nearby, where most locals visit daily to purchase fresh ingredients for cooking. It is a great place to learn more about local culture. * Explore the lovely countryside and peaceful villages by a private boat. * Then, have a great lunch at local restaurant before taking a short bike to explore local villages and farms. Note: the best time to visit the floating market is before 7am so we need to leave Ho Chi Minh city early (around 4am).
