From Mekong to Con Dao Island 6 days

Your Mekong Delta adventure begins with a morning pickup from your Saigon hotel, followed by a drive to Can Tho.

Around noon, board your wooden river cruise vessel, where you’re greeted with a refreshing welcome drink and a tour of the onboard facilities, including your cozy cabin. As you savor lunch, the boat sets off, immersing you in the Mekong’s stunning scenery and vibrant river life.

In the afternoon, disembark for a guided stroll through a local village, wandering through lush fruit orchards or verdant rice fields. This time is perfect for you to engage with friendly locals and taste fresh produce, gaining authentic insights into delta life.

Back on board, unwind with a drink at the bar, or relax on deck, watching the sunset over the majestic Mekong. Your day concludes with a delectable on-board dinner before you retire to your floating hotel, anchored in the heart of the delta for the night.
