Full description

Your adventure begins with a comfortable pickup between 7:00 and 8:00 AM, with your guide confirming your exact time in advance. Relax on a scenic 2-hour drive through the Vietnamese countryside, passing emerald rice fields, pineapple plantations, lush orchards, and charming local hamlets.

Arriving in My Tho around 10:00 AM, step aboard a traditional motorboat and cruise along the Mekong River, taking in the legendary Dragon, Phoenix, and Turtle Islands. Visit Unicorn Island to experience a beekeeping farm, sample fresh honey tea, and wander through sleepy village lanes. Drift peacefully down coconut-lined canals on a hand-rowed sampan, soaking up the authentic rhythm of Mekong Delta life.

Continue your journey to Ben Tre, renowned for its sweet coconut treats. Watch artisans craft coconut candy at a local workshop before gliding along shaded waterways in a smaller boat. Savor a delicious riverside Vietnamese lunch, then enjoy tropical fruits and the sounds of live folk music in a tranquil orchard garden.

As your day in the delta comes to an end, cruise back to My Tho and relax during the comfortable bus ride back to Ho Chi Minh City, arriving around 4:30–5:00 PM. This is an unforgettable day of vibrant scenery, local flavors, and captivating villages that reveal the true heart of southern Vietnam.See less
