You'll have the chance to hop on a merchant boat and check out all the colorful fruits like mangoes, rambutans, longans, and the "King of fruit" durian. While on the boat, you'll taste some delicious street foods like Pho, Bun Rieu, Com Tam, and Hu Tieu. We'll also see how noodles and rice paper "Banh Trang" are made and take a leisurely walk around the countryside. Of course, we can't miss out on trying tropical fruits, sipping hot tea, and going on a fun fishing trip. After that, we'll head to Vinh Long - Cai Be.
