Day1 Ho Chi Minh City To Can Tho
Leave the city buzz behind this morning and journey south into the lush heart of the Mekong Delta. Along the way, step inside a colourful Cao Dai temple – a one-of-a-kind spiritual world – and watch farmers tending their fields as life unfolds gently around you. At Cai Be pier, board your boat and breathe in your first real glimpse of Delta life: wooden houseboats, river breeze, and children waving from the banks. Stop by a family-run coconut candy workshop and sample their sweet creations before drifting deeper into the narrow waterways. Visit a beautifully preserved century-old home, then enjoy a rustic local lunch and a walk through a vibrant plant nursery. Continue to Can Tho and check in at your hotel. In the late afternoon, join a guided stroll through the lively market streets, ending at the riverside promenade. As the sun fades, unwind with a cocktail by the water — the perfect Mekong welcome. Lunch included.

Day2 Can Tho-Ho Chi Minh City
Rise early this morning and board your boat for a visit to the fascinating floating market at Cai Rang. See local farmers trading their produce on the water as they have done for centuries. Continue on to a fruit orchard where you can sample some of the tropical fruits grown in this region and try some local tea. Afterwards enjoy a relaxing walk through the local village of Binh Thuy where you will get a real taste of village life along one of the smaller Mekong canals. After lunch, relax before journeying back to Ho Chi Minh City in the late afternoon where the tour ends.
