A full day Mekong Delta tour: My Tho- Ben Tre
Saigon to the Mekong Delta: Mekong Delta is also known as Vietnam's 'rice basket’-- a fertile area spreading nearly 50,000 sq km. Here the mighty Mekong river ends by splitting itself into nine major tributaries. The Vietnamese name these nine tributaries “Nine Dragons.” Here’s our schedule that is designed to help you experience local daily activities along the Mekong.
8 AM, travel by private
car/vanto My Tho – 9:30 AM, board a wooden
motor boat to Unicorn
Island. On this boat along the river’s bank, you’ll be passing
through natural creeks and quiet
villages
and watch rural people going to work.
You will see an interesting fishermen's
port, stilt houses (
half on land, half on water ) . One of the boat’s stops during this
trip is at a large orchard that has many different types of tasty tropical
fruits for your enjoyments.
Another boat stop is for the Turtle
Island 1 hr from the previous one. Here, on a small row boat, you’ll
see interesting transportation modes that local people use to move around. From
there, we’ll take you to a bee
farm where you have a chance to taste a tasteful cup of
authentic honey tea
while checking out the folk
music
that is typical to only the people in Southern Vietnam.
After that we’ll take you to a village where you can smell the flavor of coconut candies being
made many yards away. This is a great chance to witness how village people make
candy and handcrafted
items from coconuts. You might learn that those people can
amazingly make dozens of useful products out of coconut trees.
As your journey ends, you will return to My Tho by motorized boat and then
board our car or van back to your hotel.
