A two day tour that takes you to the highlights of the mighty Mekong Delta region, from cruising by traditional boat through the waterways of the ‘Venice of Vietnam’ (the Mekong Delta river); to seeing how local produce is made into products including coconut candy; taking in the colorful floating market and visiting a Snake Farm.

Highlights

  • Cruise by hand-rowed sampan (traditional boat) through waterways flanked by lush vegetation
  • Watch how coconut is turned into candy, have a go if you fancy it, and of course, have a taste!
  • Find out first-hand what it means to be ‘busy as a bee’ on a bee farm
  • Watch hundreds of boats trade colorful produce fresh from orchards and farms at the biggest floating market in the Mekong Delta
  • Pay a trip to the biggest and most renowned snake breeding and snake bite treatment center in Vietnam- Dong Tan Snake Farm
  • Enjoy local specialty meals

We will begin our day with a trip to My Tho Town where we will have the opportunity to enjoy a boat cruise and hand-rowing sampans. We will also visit local villages where coconut candies are made. Not only will you have the chance to watch the locals produce coconut candies, but you can also get involved in coconut handicraft before visiting the bee farm.

We will have lunch in Ben Tre Province before heading to Can Tho City via the My Thuan Suspension Bridge that sits above the Mekong River. We will check into our hotel before dinner at a nice restaurant.

Day 2 will begin with an early breakfast to get our energy up for an exciting day. After breakfast, we will take a boat trip to the Floating Market and watch the locals sit aboard their small boats selling and exchanging goods. On the way back to Ho Chi Minh City, we will visit Dong Tam Snakes Farm - the largest snake farm in Viet Nam. We will have a delicious lunch at the Mekong Rest Stop before returning to Ho Chi Minh City.
