MEKONG DELTA
An intimate look into life in the Mekong River delta
« Cette excursion dans le delta du Mékong a complètement dépassé toutes celles que j'avais faites jusqu'à présent. Je n'avais pas du tout l'impression d'être un touriste, j'avais l'impression d'explorer avec une vieille amie. Elle m'a emmenée sur son scooter vers ses stands de nourriture de rue préférés, les trésors cachés des marchés où elle obtient les produits les plus frais, et même dans certaines maisons locales (complètement imprévues – ils étaient aussi surpris que moi !). Je pouvais suggérer des choses hors des sentiers battus, et elle, avec sa connaissance approfondie de la région et de la langue, pouvait les concrétiser. »

If you find yourself thinking: “I want to visit the Mekong Delta, but not in a touristy way.” You want to discover the authentic side of this beautiful region — its nature, culture, lifestyle, and food — in a way that feels relaxed, fun, and truly enjoyable. You’re looking for tours that still give you freedom, with guides who feel more like local friends — people who can take you to hidden places and share stories and experiences you wouldn’t easily find on your own. Or maybe you simply want to lie back comfortably on a boat, watching the Mekong River and its peaceful scenery slowly drift by. Then you’re in the right place — we’re here to offer you exactly that. Honest thoughts. We Mekong Zigzag, don't feel that we don’t actually do that much. The Mekong’s nature, people, and food are already authentic as they are—we don’t need to make them authentic. We simply recognize their real beauty and feel it is worth sharing with you, not as customers, but as friends. Come hang out with us on a tour, or stay with us overnight at our homestay. Live like a local, eat what we eat, enjoy what we enjoy, and connect with one another. Isn’t that joyful? ^^

Ce que nos clients ont dit
"This Mekong Delta tour was one of the highlights of my family’s trip to Vietnam, top day of all for some! Dzung was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the region. We loved how it focused on low-tourist, authentic areas. We visited quiet villages, local markets, and waterways that felt untouched and real, not staged for visitors. The pace was relaxed, the scooter drivers were awesome, the experiences felt meaningful, and we all learned so much about daily life in the Delta and of course coconuts."
From Tara D'Arcy
"Such an amazing experience! Honestly, it was the best tour I have ever had in my life. We were only three people in the group, with our guide Kane, who is truly passionate about his job. Kane is always happy, smiling, helpful, and kind. He took us by motorbike to a small villages to visit local people and kept us informed about many interesting facts and local life. It was a pleasure to meet Kane, and I can highly recommend this tour! 😊"
