Join us on a full-day adventure to the Mekong Delta, starting with a pick-up at your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City. We will then drive 1.5 hours to My Tho, making stops along the way for refreshments and restroom breaks.
Once in My Tho, we will board a motorboat and cruise through the intricate network of canals and channels, admiring the picturesque views of the Mekong River and its famous islands - Dragon, Unicorn, Turtle, and Phoenix.
Experience the local way of life by visiting a floating fish house, where villagers cultivate freshwater fish and shrimp. Then, cross the river to explore a traditional workshop where you can learn how coconut candy and honey are made, while enjoying some samples and traditional music.
Continue your journey by hand-rowing a sampan along a shady canal and riding on a Xe Loi to explore the villages. Lunch will be served at a riverside restaurant with a delicious Vietnamese 5-course set menu. Please inform us in advance of any dietary restrictions or preferences.
After lunch, we will visit Vinh Trang Pagoda, a beautiful architectural gem with ancient Buddha statues. We will then head back to Ho Chi Minh City, arriving at your hotel in the evening. Dinner is on your own tonight.
