In the early morning, our private guide and car will pick you up at your hotel and transfer you to Cai Be pier.

The tour begins with a visit to Cai Be floating market. Then, a rowing boat will take you deeper into the countryside along smaller canals, allowing you to enjoy some peaceful moments. We'll return to our boat to cross one of the longest rivers in the world, the Mekong River and arrive at An Bình Island. Travel on a handmade canal to Ut Trinh's home for lunch. After lunch, you can walk around the orchard and enjoy some tea while listening to traditional music in an ancient house.

Take a walk in the local village to visit a workshop and see how rice paper, coconut candy and pop-rice are made. Enjoy some sweets with a cup of hot tea.

Optional biking can be arranged for leisure! Biking on village paths is a wonderful way to see the local daily life: orchards, schools, churches, pagodas, traditional houses and possibly the ancestral methods of fruit picking in the Mekong Delta.

Visit the brick kilns to see how the locals create beautiful pottery from clay. The cruise will end in Vinh Long city.

Transfer back to your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City.
