Arriving at the ferry pier 15 minutes before departure was no problem. When you take the ferry out of the city, you can enjoy the atmosphere of the Mekong Delta as the mangrove date palm trees and mangrove forests surround the riverside. It is better to go out to the back of the boat and enjoy the scenery. It took 2 hours and 10 minutes to get to Vung Tau, and the river and sea were calm, so there was little rocking on the boat.

It is okay to arrive at the pier 15 minutes before departure. The boat departed on time. Go to the back of the boat and feel the river breeze. The sunset over the mangrove forests of the Mekong Delta is beautiful.

We were initially a bit disappointed when our guide arrived 10 minutes late, and we were surprised to learn that no car was included in our booking. Instead, they arrange a Grab for us, which is already paid for—so no additional expenses there. However, our tour guide, Hao, turned out to be fantastic! He’s not only an amazing photographer but also fun, flexible, and incredibly knowledgeable. We ended up having a great time, and the photos he took were simply stunning. Given that hiring a dedicated photographer would have been much more expensive and may not have allowed us to explore as much, this experience was truly a great value for money. This 2-hour tour really encapsulated our Vietnam trip, and I highly recommend it! If you can, definitely ask for Hao! (The photos below may not necessarily be the best photos we got but they were chosen as our faces were not as exposed in them)

Here's a friendly and sincere review based on your feedback:
I had a lovely experience! If you're looking to see Vietnam in a short amount of time, this is a fantastic option. Just be aware of the weather conditions—unfortunately, it rained during our trip, so I had to stay at the bottom. However, the voucher system was straightforward and easy to use, which made the process hassle-free. Overall, it was definitely great value for money!

Sunrise Central Hotel is at the heart of District 1. Excellent service, very good staff who will assist you all the way. Infront of mini stop so no problem with basic needs. A stone throw away to Ben Thanh Market for souvenirs and local food. Nice and affordable room rates. Try their breakfast buffet specially the noodles. Its superb!
