Homestay Songngu Pisces

“Agradables vistas del comedor”

Todo muy cuidado. La comida la encontramos más cara que en otros sitios y no tan sabrosa. Te ayudan en lo que pueden. Hicimos el tour al mercado flotante con Daisy y fue un acierto. Con ella comimos una sopa para desayunar de lo más delicioso que he comido en Vietnam

Song Ngu Riverside Homestay What a great Homestay in Can Tho. Cindy is a fantastic, helpful host, providing great communication through the post booking period and during the stay. (Two examples are (1.) she provided the Vietnamese text whilst we were in transit to find and catch the free shuttle service from the bus station to the Homestay and (2.) also arranged emergency dental treatment in town. The rooms are comfortable and quiet providing a relaxing location for the Mekong Delta. Although some way out of town everything you need for a chilled stay is here. A great restaurant and bar overlooking the river, decent sized pool etc. What makes a place is the staff and Cindy’s team are amazing. Always cheerful and happy to help, great in the kitchen delivering delicious food, wonderful bar staff too. Another big plus is that Cindy and her team can deliver a number of trips and activities for during your stay. 1. We were loaned two bikes and Matthias (Cindy’s husband) suggested a great route for a quiet cycle ride on the other side of the river, including how to find the small ferry and the costs of the crossing). It was great to get out and meet genuine people going about their daily routine. We were even invited into a family celebration in one of the villages. 2. The Song Ngu cookery classes shouldn’t be missed. You’ll discuss the types of food you like and what you’d like to cook, then be taken to the market to buy the fresh ingredients for your lesson. Our instructor Kyn aka ‘Pretty Boy’ was an entertaining, enthusiastic instructor. We made crispy shrimp spring rolls and red tilapia with vegetables and rice. Don’t be surprised if you end up sharing samples with other guests as the portions you make are massive. 3. We did the early morning floating market tour, again with Kyn. The 5am start is well worth it. Watching sunrise over the Mekong and the bustle of the market unfold is unforgettable. You get to do loads during the 6 hour trip, starting from the Homestay bar. Not only do you get to visit the floating market, we visited the onshore market, took breakfast back in the boat at a floating cafe, visited one of the larger boats to see how families live and work on the water, visited a family run rice paper factory where we made rice paper and rice noodles, walked a local village and plant conservation area and enjoyed a platter of fresh fruit and jasmine tea before a sedate tour through the backwaters. Kyn was a knowledgeable guide, taking things at a sedate pace and recounting many stories and anecdotes. If you’re looking for a chilled Homestay with exceptional food for a relaxing but informative break in the Mekong delta, then this is the place for you. Our stay exceeded all expectations due to the hard work of Cindy and her wonderful team. We’ve made life long memories from our time with you all. Thank you

“Un remanso de paz, junto al rio”

Situado al lado mismo del río en un paraje idílico , sin contar con los mosquitos en algunas épocas del año, las habitaciones con básicas pero más que correctas, teniendo en cuenta que los huéspedes pasan todo el tiempo en las zonas comunes escuchando música o leyendo en los enormes puff.
