A Glimpse of Mekong 2 Days

Our driver & tour guide will pick you up at 7.30 am at your hotel to transfer to Cai Be. The program will start with a visit to Cai Be, a colorful floating market cruising among local barges full of fruits and vegetables.

Then, stop by some local workshops where you can see how to make rice paper, coconut candy pop-rice, pop-corn, etc. The rowing boat will take you deeper into the countryside on smaller canals and allow you to enjoy a peaceful time.

It is so interesting to see traditional houses made of wood and palm tree leaves and see some of the activities of the local farmers, with the opportunity to make contact with them and see how they catch fish.

Lunch will be served at Ut Trinh’s home. After lunch, we walk around the orchards, and then we will enjoy some fruit tasting while listening to traditional music.

One more thing to do on this trip is biking! It will be so amazing to bike on village paths to see the local farms, houses, real life, and the ancestral ways to pick up fruits in the Mekong Delta.

Afterward, start the 1-hour drive to Can Tho. Overnight is in Can Tho.
