Catering to anaphylactic food allergies
We are a family of 6 of origin Vietnamese Canadians, also American. It’s our first time ever to visit Đồng Bằng sông Cửu Long or Mékong Delta. We’ve learned of Maika Tour via Facebook, and have decided to take the 2D1N tour. Our tour guide, Long who is kind and knowledgeable about different neighborhood and some ancient anecdotes of Saigon, also of Mékong Delta. We’ve learned so much about different hands on technique on making Banh Xèo to pottery… Lunch was provided on the first day of the tour and was more than enough to fill us up, and also delicious. Maika tours or Long was really helpful paying attention to food allergies of one of members of our group ( that’s the reason why we took this private tour) and we are really grateful for that. Would definitely take more tours if we have more time in Viet Nam . Maybe next time…

Best way to visit the Mekong!
We were picked up at our hotel in Saigon and had a comfortable ride. We were taken to a private boat and took that along with our guide Hương to see locals make coconut candy, puffed rice, and pottery. We stopped for lunch at a local homestay and had an amazing and fresh meal which consisted of a whole local fish which they used to make spring rolls right in front of us. We then docked and were taken by our private driver to our hotel for the evening. Of the spots they suggested we stayed at Legacy Mekong and it was very relaxing. The next morning we took a private boat again to the floating markets and saw how rice noodles are made. On our boat we were able to get breakfast from a lady selling noodle soup from her boat. The whole experience gave us deeper look and appreciation of the culture. Our guide was the highlight.

Mekong delta!
This tour was a truly unforgettable experience from start to finish! The 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour was the perfect way to explore the heart of southern Vietnam, and having Sunny as our guide made it even more special — he’s simply the best! Everything was perfectly organized. The private boat ride through the Mekong was peaceful and scenic, and rowing through the small canals was an incredible, immersive experience — like stepping into a postcard. We loved every moment of it. One of the highlights was the amazing homestay. It was warm, welcoming, and gave us a real taste of local life. Meeting and visiting with local families made the experience so much more personal and meaningful. The food was fresh and delicious, and the hospitality was second to none. Sunny was outstanding — full of energy, knowledge, and kindness. He shared so much insight into the culture, traditions, and daily life of the Mekong Delta, always making sure we were comfortable and having a great time. His passion for his work and love for his country truly shine through. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a deeper, more authentic experience in Vietnam. And if you can, book it with Sunny — you won’t regret it!

We're so sure that the 2-day tour introduced you to a very different beauty of Vietnam which cannot be seen in big, modern cities.

Great tour
Very interesting tour for two days in the Mekong Delta. Very varied. Our guide Tan looked after us very well. Private tour is absolutely beneficial to escape the many tourists.
Response from the operator: Lieber Daniel P, Vielen Dank für diese netten Worte. Wir freuen uns, dass Sie zwei wundervolle Tage im Mekongdelta verbracht haben. Wir versuchen immer unser Bestes, um unsere privaten Touren exklusiv zu gestalten und touristische Orte zu meiden, und Ihre Zufriedenheit bedeutet uns sehr viel. Nochmals vielen Dank, dass Sie mit uns gereist sind, und wir wünschen Ihnen alles Gute für Ihre nächsten Reisen. Das Team von Maika Tours

Why this scores 68
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.
How much does 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $109 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ho Chi Minh City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ho Chi Minh City is not rushed.
Is 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 11 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ho Chi Minh City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ho Chi Minh City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ho Chi Minh City and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2-Day Mekong Delta and Floating Markets Private Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ho Chi Minh City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
On Outty we rank every Ho Chi Minh City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Adventure Cu Chi Tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour From HCM, Cu Chi Tunnels Small-Group Tour: Vietnam War Underground Network, Cu Chi underground tour - Learn Vietnam war with others. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ho Chi Minh City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
