Discover in Two Days What the Mekong River Brings to the People of the Delta
Several centuries ago, the lands of the Mekong Delta were inhabited by the Khmer people. Today, the Vietnamese state administers the 12 provinces of the Delta, in addition to one municipality – Can Tho, the region’s main urban center.
To visit the Mekong Delta is to experience a way of life entirely shaped by the river. Here, people navigate more than they walk! As waterways remain the main means of transport, markets are also held on the water.
Our private 2-day / 1-night tour will take you to discover daily life along the river and its colorful markets, including the vibrant Cai Be Floating Market. You will also have time to explore typical riverside villages and even spend the night there, as this itinerary includes an authentic homestay on the beautiful Thoi Son Island.
Departure from Ho Chi Minh City at 08:30 with your guide and driver. Visit Vinh Trang Pagoda in My Tho, then enjoy a cruise on the Ben Tre River. Afterwards, visit workshops for coconut processing and mat weaving.
Late in the morning, take a ride by motorized cart or bicycle through rice fields and vegetable gardens. Lunch at Hai Ho’s house.
In the afternoon, enjoy a sampan ride, then return to the pier and depart for Can Tho (100 km – approx. 2h30 drive). Upon arrival, take a bicycle ride around the village. Dinner and overnight at a local homestay.
Included today: lunch and dinner, French-speaking guide, private transportation, entrance fees, and overnight at a homestay.
Leave your homestay at dawn to visit the Cai Rang Floating Market. Afterwards, continue to Le Binh Covered Market, specialized in fish and vegetables.
Then depart for Xeo Quyt, a historic site and natural park that witnessed an important battle during the Vietnam War. Take a walk and then a sampan ride to explore the forest and learn about the living conditions of Vietnamese soldiers at that time.
Return to Ho Chi Minh City in the late afternoon.
