    About this experience

    Escape the beaten path and discover the hidden wonders of the Mekong Delta with our unique and exhilarating speedboat tour. While the region south of Saigon has been overwhelmed with mass tourism over the years, we have meticulously created an immersive and intimate experience that provides a different perspective of the authentic rural Vietnamese way of life. Set off from downtown Saigon as you embark on a water journey to take in the stunning scenery up close and catch a glimpse of small-village life along the river. Explore a bustling market, a unique Cao Dai temple, and meet a welcoming three-generation family, gaining insight into Delta traditions and culture. Besides, taking a sampan boat across a small scenic canal, cycling through the tranquil countryside and engaging with hospitable locals are among the delights of a trip to the Delta. It offers a chance to break away from the usual routes, relish the natural beauty of the region and connect with locals in a meaningful way.

    Fun, educational and eye opening.

    We have just completed the half day Cu Chi tunnel tour and couldn’t recommend Fisheye Travel any higher. We had a group of 10 and had the most amazing day. Our guide JP is the best, his knowledge of the tunnels and the area is nothing short of excellence. Safety is a priority. Travelling by boat up the Saigon river itself is fantastic, far better than sitting in a bus for 2 and a half hours we arrived in just over an hour. The tour is brilliant and very educational l. After the tour we board the speedboat for a trip back down to where we stopped for a fantastic lunch and time to relax. Once finished JP escorted us back to the boat for a quick 10 minute ride back to the harbour where the tour comes to an end. Thank you Fisheye Travel and JP, keep up the great work👏

    Response from the operator: Dear Paul, Thank you so much for such a fantastic review and for your kind compliments on our guide JP. We are really glad to hear that you had a great trip to the Cu Chi Tunnels with us. Your kind words would be shared with the team as an inspiration to motivate us to deliver truly memorable moments to each of our guests. We would love to welcome you back on your next holiday in Vietnam. All the best from Fisheye Travel Speedboat Tours! Best regards, Kimin – Operations Manager

    Amazing Mekong cruise with Mr T

    We had a lovely half day cruise of the Mekong with Mr T and another family. Mr T was fantastic in terms of his knowledge, his English, and sharing his experiences. Travelling on the speedboat was a perfect way to travel and avoid the heat and waiting in traffic. All of the experiences were worthwhile including the visit to a local market, tea at a local family house, and even the church was interesting. We particularly enjoyed the sampan ride and riding through the rice fields on the electric scooters.

    Response from the operator: Dear Jarrod, Thank you very much for your brilliant review! It is our great pleasure to learn that you enjoyed the half day Mekong Delta speed boat trip with us gave a high praise on T. We definitely share your kind compliments to all our team as the key motivation. Once again, thank you for a nice review. We look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable trip. All the best from Fisheye Travel Speedboat Tours! Best regards, Kimin – Operations Manager

    Fantastic Day!

    I saw Fisheye Travel speed boat tour comment on a Facebook thread for Vietnam travellers. I reached out and immediately booked with them. We did the half day tour to The Cu Chi tunnels and afternoon to the Mekong Delta. From the moment I contacted them the communication was prompt and no question was a bother. We are picked up on time by Qui our guide for the day. Easy transfer to get on our speedboat. Fruit, fresh pastries, ice cold water and snacks were on board. The boat ride up the Saigon River gives you a unique view of the city, without the traffic! The Cu Chi tunnels was great with our guide talking us through and taking us throughout. A small part of history and a story that needs to be told! Back on the boat to have a fanatic lunch at a great local restaurant. Food was amazing! The afternoon up to the Mekong Delta was honestly a highlight of the day. Visiting a small village this is the real Mekong Delta experience. Everyone was so friendly and we were met with smiles all round. A quick Scooter around the village and a Sampan boat ride for good measure. I honestly highly recommend this tour and tour company. Highly professional, value for money and an absolutely faultless day!

    Response from the operator: Dear Michelle, A heartfelt thank you for your incredibly beautiful review. It is very kind and sweet of you to thoroughly post this! We are nothing short of delighted to find that you enjoyed the trip so much and satisfied with our attentive service. Your kind words would be shared with the team as an inspiration to motivate us to deliver truly memorable moments to each of our guests. Once again, thank you for choosing and recommending us. We much look forward to welcoming you back soon. All the best from Fisheye Travel Speedboat Tours! Best regards, Kimin – Operations Manager

    Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ho Chi Minh City.

    How much does Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking cost?

    +

    Prices start at $119 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 Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 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 Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 104 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 Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking?

    +

    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 Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking?

    +

    Around 36 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 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Half-Day Mekong Delta by Speedboat and Leisure Biking 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.
