Mekong Delta Day Tour

Discover the secrets of the Mekong Delta

Known as the 'rice bowl of Vietnam', the fertile green landscapes along the great Mekong River are punctuated with paddy fields, sleepy villages, floating markets, stilt houses and fishing boats.

Explore this lush region on a full day tour from Ho Chi Minh City to My Tho in the heart of the Mekong Delta.

Take a boat trip along the Mekong River to a local workshop where you handicraft items and sweets are created from coconuts.

Embark on a short horse drawn carriage ride to visit one of the many local orchards where you will have the chance to taste some homemade honey-tea and savour fresh seasonal fruits while enjoying a traditional live music performance.

Proceed by a traditional wooden sampan boat through the small canals and side arms of the river to witness the bustle of daily life along the river banks before returning to the My Tho Pier. 

Stop at a local restaurant for lunch before visiting the Vinh Trang pagoda in the afternoon before continuing back to Ho Chi Minh City.
