We will depart for Dan Xay Bridge, where we will take a boat or canoe to explore the natural bird reserve at Vam Sat Eco-Tourist Zone, particularly during peak season from May to October. This area is part of the Vam Sat Salt-Marsh Forest Ecological Tourist Zone, situated between the Vam Sat and Long Tau Rivers. This region was severely impacted during the Vietnam War but has since regrown and is now protected as a wilderness park, showcasing nature’s resilience.
Our adventure continues with a visit to the crocodile swamp, where you may catch a glimpse of these fascinating reptiles in their natural habitat. Next, we will explore the bat lagoon, home to a variety of bat species. We will then ascend Tang Bong Tower, which stands at 26 meters tall, providing breathtaking panoramic views of the biosphere reserve below.. After conquering the tower, we will enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, sampling regional specialties.
In the afternoon, we will head to Forest Park (Monkey Island) to visit Can Gio Museum and Mangrove Forest Park Faun Conservation, where thousands of monkeys and saltwater crocodiles thrive. We will also explore the vital Mangrove Forest Ecosystem before visiting the Rung Sac Guerrilla Base, an important chapter in Vietnam history.

Exploring the lush mangroves was a highlight of our day, as we kayaked through tranquil waters while spotting countless species of birds and vibrant wildlife. We absolutely loved the guided nature walk, which opened our eyes to the delicate ecosystem of Can Gio, but the lunch provided felt a bit rushed and could have offered more variety. Overall, this eco-friendly escape was a refreshing way to connect with nature while enjoying quality time together in Ho Chi Minh City.

We had an invigorating day immersed in wildlife and nature, with our transportation seamlessly whisking us through stunning landscapes. While the guided experience was rich with discoveries, a bit more time for personal exploration would have been ideal.
