The famous Mekong delta is a crisscross river area in South Vietnam, made up of nine rivers that flow into the East Sea. The fertile lands of the delta have made it the biggest rice producer in Vietnam and the second biggest in the world. The delta is also famous for its tropical fruits and fresh coconut. Join us on this deluxe full-day tour to explore this amazing area.
7h30 AM Our tour guide will welcome you at our office at 123 Ly Tu Trong, District 1, Ho Chi Minh city before heading to My Tho city by bus. Enjoy the scenery and green rice paddies during the one and a half hour bus ride. Along the way, we will visit Vinh Trang pagoda, the biggest pagoda in the Mekong delta. Continue to My Tho, where we take a boat trip along the Mekong River, where you can see fish cages and floating houses on the river.
The boat takes you to a small canal, escaping the hustle and bustle of the town. We disembark at a coconut island in Ben Tre and enjoy a walk around the village. Stop at a local family home to enjoy tropical fruit, taste the honey tea and honey wine and listen to Vietnamese traditional music performed by the villagers. Check out the coconut candy shop and learn how to make candy, and see handicrafts made from the coconuts.
Take your time snapping photos and enjoy the natural scenery before we head to the local restaurant. Lunch is set with special Vietnamese food. Enjoy your lunch outside under the shade of the trees. After lunch, enjoy your time relaxing, walking around the village, or perhaps going for a short bike ride. Travel back to Saigon and arrive around 4.30pm for the end of the tour.
