After your guide meets you at your hotel, heading to the southwest of Saigon to the Mekong Delta, considered the heart of the entire Mekong delta region. On your way, stop at the Vinh Trang Pagoda, a Buddhist site featuring ancient bronze statues and a colonial history. Pause along the banks of the river Tien, the northern artery of the Mekong River. Take a boat trip on the Mekong River to a workshop where handmade crafts and sweets are produced from coconuts. A short ride on a horse carriage brings you to one of the many nearby orchards, where you taste homemade honey tea, savor fresh seasonal fruits, and enjoy “Don Ca Tai Tu” - traditional live music of Mekong people. After lunch, hop on an electric car for a leisurely driving through the countryside, soaking up the rural ambiance as you pass small villages and farms. Mid-afternoon, step back in the boat and cruise along the canals until you reach the spot where you return to your tour vehicle. Reach Saigon at about 5PM. Tour ends.

A great day out with Hai!

This was a great day out with lots of experiences and activities. A beautiful lunch of fish spring rolls, prawns, soup, greens and rice. Boat rides aplenty and the best guide in Hai whose English is very good, friendly and a few jokes shown in for fun

Excellent fun day on the river!

The tour was lots of fun! We stopped at the temple and then on to the Mekong delta. The food was delicious, even though I was nervous and a picky eater. The coconut candy was great and we especially liked the pandan leaf flavour. Just remember to bring cash to purchase drinks along the way and to top the service people.
