9.Mekong Delta Can Tho Floating Market 2-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★3.0 · 4 reviews · from $100

“A scam from start to finish. 80% of the tour is in Vietnamese, with nothing for foreigners. Ridiculous 2-minute activities followed by 20 minutes of hard selling. The famous rowboat ride lasts barely 7 minutes. The "silk museum" is a supermarket, the "local village" is a sordid place where animals (dogs, piglets, alligators) are mistreated, and every activity costs extra. The "floating market" is just a shop by the water. And the "romantic dinner cruise"? A canteen on a rotten boat with no air conditioning and mediocre food. Nothing is as promised. Deception, animal abuse, forced sales, and total discomfort. Avoid at all costs.Read more”
