2-Day Mekong Delta Visit Ben Tre & Cai Rang Floating Market – Southern Vietnam, Vietnam

EXPERIENCE

Start your adventure at 8 AM as your guide and private car pick you up from the hotel. We’ll drive for about 2 hours to My Tho City. Visit Vinh Trang Pagoda – the most beautiful and unique architecture in the region.

Enjoy a relaxed cruise on the Tien River, passing by four islets that represent mythical animals: Dragon, Kirin, Tortoise, and Phoenix. At Kirin Islet, explore a honey bee farm and a coconut candy workshop, tasting these local treats and seeing how they’re made by hand. Wander through orchard gardens, savoring seasonal fruits and enjoying folk music. Experience a serene rowboat trip through a mangrove palm canal, followed by a charming horse-drawn carriage ride, giving you a glimpse of 19th-century local travel. After a delightful riverside lunch, return to Can Tho City for an evening of leisure and an overnight stay.

The next day offers two meeting times: 5 AM or 7 AM. Opt for the earlier time to enjoy breakfast back at your hotel after the Cai Rang Floating Market experience, or choose 7 AM and have breakfast beforehand. The vibrant market comes alive around 6 AM as you cruise the Hau River from Ninh Kieu Wharf. Sample tropical fruits or try a hot rice noodle soup for a light breakfast. Visit a noodle workshop to learn about different Vietnamese noodles.

Enjoy some free time before our guide and car take you back to Saigon, concluding this memorable two-day excursion.”
