Join us on a day trip to the Mekong Delta, where you will experience the picturesque views of the Mekong River and its famous islands. Our guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel in Ho Chi Minh city, and take you on a 1.5-hour drive to My Tho.
Along the way, we will make a stop for refreshments and bathroom breaks. Upon arrival in My Tho, we will board a motor-boat and cruise along the canals and channels to see the Dragon, Unicorn, Turtle, and Phoenix islands.
Visit a floating fish house to learn about freshwater fish and shrimp cultivation, a major export of the region. Cross the river to visit a traditional workshop where you can see how coconut candy is made and enjoy some yourself while listening to traditional music.
Experience a sampan ride along the canal and explore the villages on a Xe Loi, a local transportation method. Lunch will be served at a riverside restaurant with a Vietnamese 5-course set menu. Please inform us in advance if you have any dietary restrictions.
After lunch, we will visit the Vinh Trang pagoda, an ancient architectural gem with many Buddha statues. We will then drive back to Ho Chi Minh city and drop you off at your hotel.
