Around 7:30–7:45 AM, you’ll be picked up from your hotel in central Ho Chi Minh City for the drive to the Mekong Delta. On the 1.5-hour journey, enjoy views of lush rice fields before reaching the charming town of My Tho. Your first stop is Vinh Trang Pagoda, one of the most famous and ancient temples in the region, where you’ll explore its beautiful architecture and spiritual significance.
The journey continues in My Tho with a motorboat ride along the Tien River, passing the Dragon, Phoenix, and Unicorn islets. Stroll through a village to visit a fruit garden, taste fresh tropical fruits, and enjoy traditional Southern folk music performed by locals. Then, take a serene rowing boat trip through narrow canals shaded by water coconut palms. The cruise continues to Ben Tre, the “Land of Coconut,” where you’ll visit a coconut candy workshop and see how locals skillfully craft products from coconuts.
Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant, then relax in a hammock or take a leisurely bike ride around the village. In the afternoon, continue to Can Tho – the heart of the Mekong Delta. Check into your hotel and enjoy free time to explore the city at night.
Begin your day with an early boat trip to the famous Cai Rang Floating Market, most lively in the morning. Experience the bustling scene of boats trading fruits, vegetables, and local goods. Stop by a vendor boat to taste vermicelli or coffee right on the water, soaking in the market’s unique charm. Continue to a Rice Noodle Factory to see the traditional noodle-making process, then visit a lively local market filled with fresh produce, spices, and daily essentials. Return to your hotel for check-out, breakfast, and a short rest after the morning’s activities.
On the way back to Ho Chi Minh City, stop at the historic 10 Vo Ancient House to admire its traditional architecture and learn about local customs. Take part in a hands-on cooking experience by making Vietnamese pancakes, “bánh xèo,” and enjoy a delicious lunch right at the house. For those who wish, a leisurely bike ride around the area offers the chance to explore the scenic countryside and connect with the local community.
Escape the bustle of Ho Chi Minh City in favor of the tranquil Mekong Delta on a 2-day tour that provides a great introduction for first-time visitors. A guide takes care of planning activities, accommodation, and transfers so you don’t have to, and provides an insider’s perspective into the culture of southern Vietnam. You’ll explore Cai Raing Floating Market, the biggest in the region, and enjoy the convenience of hotel pickup and drop-off in Ho Chi Minh City.
