Description:

Experience the best of the Mekong Delta in 1 day on this small-group tour from Ho Chi Minh City. Enjoy the sights of paddy fields, explore the Cái Bè Floating Market, visit a local coconut candy factory, and savor a cooking lesson for a truly remarkable experience.

Start your journey with a hotel pickup in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle to the bustling town of Cái Bè. Along the way, pass by rolling paddy fields and watch the local farmers planting rice.

Upon arrival in Cái Bè, hop on a motorboat to visit its lively floating market along the Tien River. Wonder at the exotic fruits and other local produce on display, hanging from poles on boats and rafts.

Then disembark for a short walk to a local coconut candy factory. Tour the facility and learn how these delicious sweets are produced. Walk past fruit orchards and plantations before listening to a traditional southern Vietnamese music performance titled “Don Ca Tai Tu.”

Back on the boat, cruise along the Mekong Delta to Tan Phong Island, where you learn to prepare authentic Vietnamese dishes. After your cooking lesson, sit down and enjoy an appetizing Vietnamese meal, in addition to your culinary creation.

Continue your tour on bike along a main village path. Take the opportunity to interact with attentive locals before returning to your Ho Chi Minh City hotel.
