Day 01
Full-Day Mekong Delta Exploration in My Tho
- Leave the hustle and bustle of Ho Chi Minh City behind as you depart for My Tho, a town on the left bank of the Mekong River.
- Upon arrival, visit Vĩnh Tràng Temple, which dates back to the late 19th century. Then board a sampan and cruise along the river around the four beautiful islands known as Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise.
- Stop at Unicorn Island for a walk along the country lanes and through the orchards. Enjoy tropical fruits and folk song music performed by local people, and visit a fruit plantation.
- Ride a hand-rowed sampan through the Thới Sơn canal and take in the beauty of the countryside. Visit a family-run business, stop by a honey-bee farm, and enjoy honey tea at a coconut candy workshop.
- Have lunch at a local restaurant, followed by a short break.
- In the afternoon, enjoy time cycling around Tân Thạch village and meeting local villagers to experience daily life in the Mekong Delta. Those who cannot join the cycling trip can relax in a hammock and enjoy the cool breeze.
- Return to Ho Chi Minh City. End of the trip.
