What to expect

  1. Mekong Delta
    2h
    Discover southern Vietnam with a friendly Trip Guru on this full-day Mekong River Delta Tour. Nicknamed the ‘rice bowl of Vietnam’, the Mekong River Delta is a flatland stretching from Ho Chi Minh’s southwest to the Gulf of Thailand. Orchards, paddy fields, and swamplands make up the rustic landscape of this verdant region, which is well worth exploring as an escape from Saigon’s street scenes.
  2. 2h
    We’ll start the trip with an early pick-up from your accommodations before heading South to the Cai Be district. From there, we’ll board a boat and head to Tan Phong Island, one of the more well-known islands in the Mekong Delta. Tan Phong is especially popular for its fruit orchards, aquaculture, and fishing. We’ll also pass by the floating market and learn about its history and significance from our friendly TripGuru.
  3. 1h · Admission ticket included
    Our next stop is an Ancient House, known by the locals as the old house of Mr. Kiet. This ancient house is almost 200 years old and has five bedrooms. The interiors of the house are intricately decorated with rare pieces of wood that are inlaid with numerous delicate carvings.
  4. 1h · Admission ticket included
    After taking in the stunning architecture and decor, we’ll have a late lunch before heading for some sweet treats at the Kimmy Chocolatier Factory.
  5. 1h
    We’ll make a stop at the Vinh Tran Pagoda, a timeless oasis nestled in the heart of the Mekong Delta. Marvel at its intricate architecture and tranquil surroundings before making our way back to Ho Chi Minh.
