Mekong Delta Tour – 2 Days

Day 01: Sai Gon - Ben Tre - Can Tho (L/D)
Our guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel then transfer to Ben Tre.
Ben Tre, a small town, hidden within the Mekong Delta, has recently stepped out to be a destination in its own right. This peaceful retreat offers many charming surprises besides the lush vegetation, snaking canals, and enchanting smiles.
A day to Ben Tre is a day when you are no longer a tourist but a true resident embarking on a sensory voyage of discovery. Enjoy observing how bricks and grass mats are made with age-old traditional techniques as well as how products are extracted from coconuts. Admire stunning panoramic countryside pictures made of green coconut palms, yellow river streams and colorful local products. Feel the warmth of the tropical breeze and the coolness of water currents whilst exploring the earthy trails. Taste and smell local exotic fruits, “garden-made” cuisine or stop to observe and satisfy your palate with just-made wet rice paper or coco candies married with green tea. Complete your experience listening to the sounds of boat, and certainly the banter and laughter of local people, modest yet hospitable.
Transfer to Can Tho in the afternoon.
Overnight at homestay or hotel in CanTho.

Day 02: Floating market - Cycle tour - Transfer back to Sai Gon (B/L).
Breakfast at hotel.
Boat trip on the Rach Ngong River to Cai Rang daily floating market, where fruits, vegetables and other goods are sold from the boats in the middle of the river.
