Mekong Delta Boat Tour
After breakfast, you will be collected from your hotel for the drive of 136 km to Vinh Long, a riverside town in the vast Mekong Delta, the world’s largest delta. Here you will take a boat cruise to lively Cai Be floating market where sellers and buyers bargain and exchange goods from their boats. Proceed through a fascinating maze of shady canals to Hoa Binh Phuoc Island, with its beautiful landscape of zigzag canals, lush vegetation, peaceful villages and activities of rural life. There on the island, you have the unique opportunity to visit local farmers’ homes, interact with warm-hearted hosts and learn about their trades of bonsai gardening, tile and ceramic production and rice paper and coconut candy making. Then, transfer to the pier and board the traditional cruise for a relaxing journey along the river. Enjoy live traditional music and dance performances while sampling a variety of fresh, homemade dishes served at interactive buffet stations. After dinner, unwind on the deck and take in the panoramic view of the city lights, passing landmarks such as the Bitexco Tower, the tallest building in town.
