Overview

Why This Tour Is Special

• Off the tourist trail: Lung Ngoc Hoang is still untouched by mass tourism — a rare, truly authentic Mekong Delta experience.
• Hidden wetland landscapes: You’ll cruise through quiet canals covered in water plants and surrounded by pristine forest.
• Incredible birdlife: Thousands of wild birds live and flock here, offering one of the best natural birdwatching spots in the region.
• Flexible and comfortable: Choose to trek lightly or return by boat, making it suitable for all ages and activity levels.
• This tour is available with a guide or without a guide (driver only). Please make sure to select the option that best suits your needs when making the reservation.
• If you prefer a more budget-friendly option, you can choose the driver-only option. You can still explore the reserve independently, and the boat driver can communicate with you using Google Translate if needed.
