Overview

Escape the busy streets of Saigon and discover the wild side of Vietnam at Can Gio Mangrove Forest — a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve — by speedboat.
Cruise along the Saigon River and into a vast network of mangrove forests, where you’ll encounter diverse wildlife and experience a completely different side of the country. Visit Monkey Island, home to hundreds of long-tailed monkeys, and explore the unique ecosystem that makes this area so special.
You’ll also have the chance to see saltwater crocodiles up close and learn about the region’s role in protecting Vietnam’s coastal environment.
With a small-group setting and expert local guides, this experience offers a more immersive, natural, and less touristy alternative to typical city tours.
