The Mekong Delta is often referred to as the “Rice Bowl” of Vietnam, and for good reason. This vast network of rivers, swamps, and islands is the lifeblood of southern Vietnam, offering a stunning contrast to the bustling cities. Our Mekong Delta Tour invites you to immerse yourself in the peaceful beauty of the countryside, where you’ll experience local life, vibrant floating markets, and picturesque landscapes.
Explore the Waterways of the Mekong
The Mekong Delta is a unique environment, and one of the best ways to explore it is by boat. On this tour, you’ll:
- Cruise along the Mekong River: Drift through narrow canals, surrounded by lush greenery and traditional wooden houses. Feel the peaceful atmosphere as you glide past floating villages and small fishing boats.
- Visit Floating Markets: Explore the famous Cai Be Floating Market or Phong Dien Floating Market where vendors sell fresh fruits, vegetables, and local products directly from their boats. The colorful scene and lively interaction between locals offer an authentic experience.
- Explore Small Islands: Stop at various islands in the Mekong Delta to visit local farms, taste tropical fruits, and observe traditional crafts being made. You might even get to sample honey tea or coconut candy, which are regional specialties.
