Mekong Delta 2-Day Tour: Floating Markets, Cooking & HomestayYou’ll glide by boat through Mekong Delta canals, sample warm coconut candy in Cai Be, cycle between green fields with a local guide, and wake early for Cai Rang floating market’s noisy sunrise bustle. Share stories over home-cooked dinner at your Can Tho homestay—this trip leaves you with more than photos.
Mekong Delta Day Trip from Ho Chi Minh City: Sampan & Bike TourYou travel two hours south to My Tho, then spend the day on a motorized sampan, a rowing boat through narrow canals, and a bicycle through rural island gardens. Lunch with a local family includes watching banh khot being made, and you visit working farms, craft workshops, and cottage industries before returning to Ho Chi Minh City in the late afternoon. All transport, entry fees, meals and a guide are included.Is it for me?A good fit if you want to move through the Mekong Delta beyond the main tourist stops—the full day is what makes visiting floating farms, cycling quiet island roads, and stopping at working cottage industries possible without feeling rushed. Plan for an early start and a late afternoon return; the length is what lets you actually spend time in each place instead of just passing through.
Ho Chi Minh: Cu Chi Tunnels & Mekong Delta CruiseYou're picked up at your hotel, driven to Cu Chi Tunnels where you explore the underground network and learn about the Vietnam War, then head to the Mekong Delta for a rowboat cruise under coconut trees, a motorboat ride to a local family's home, and time walking the countryside. Lunch, tropical fruit, honey tea, and live music are included; you return to your hotel in the evening.Is it for me?Pick this tour if you want to see both the war history and the rural countryside in one day without arranging separate transport, tickets, or meals—the fixed itinerary and included lunch mean you're not making decisions all day.
Ho Chi Minh City: Mekong Delta River Cruise & Vinh Trang PagodaYou leave Ho Chi Minh City by car, cruise the Mekong River by motorboat, glide through palm-lined canals in a traditional sampan, visit a coconut candy workshop and bee farm, taste tropical fruits with live folk music, eat a full Vietnamese lunch, and explore Vinh Trang Pagoda's architecture and Buddha statues. Hotel pickup and drop-off in districts 1, 3, or 5 are included, and the whole day takes you from city to countryside and back before evening.Is it for me?Pick this tour if you want to see how people actually live in the Mekong Delta without spending the day arranging boats, meals, and temple visits separately—the fixed itinerary handles all the logistics and timing so you move through villages, waterways, and landmarks without gaps or decisions.
Mekong Delta Day Trip: My Tho & Rice Bowl Boat CruiseYou travel two hours from Ho Chi Minh City to My Tho, then spend the day on motorized and rowing boats through the Mekong Delta's four main islands, stopping to sample tropical fruits, watch coconut candy being made, and walk through village orchards. Lunch at a local restaurant is included, as are all boat trips, entrance fees, and an English-speaking guide. The return transfer gets you back to the city by late afternoon.Is it for me?Book this if you want to see how the Mekong Delta actually works — the farms, the villages, the workshops — without arranging transport, tickets, or a guide yourself. The fixed itinerary and included meals mean you show up at your hotel and the day unfolds; the two-hour transfer is what puts you far enough out to see the real landscape instead of the tourist version.
Mekong Delta: Ben Tre Private Day Trip with Sampan & LunchYou’ll taste fresh coconut candy in Ben Tre’s Mekong Delta villages, cycle shaded paths past rice fields with your guide, share tea with locals, float by sampan through peaceful canals—and linger over a riverside lunch with specialties like elephant-ear fish. It’s not rushed or crowded; just slow hours that stick with you long after you’re back in Saigon.
