We’ll pick you up at your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City in the early morning and head south to Ben Tre Province. We start the tour with a boat trip through small canals flanked by beautiful tropical scenery, and make stops at various local workshops along the way, including brick kilns, a coconut processing workshop and a local family workshop that produces traditional sleeping mats.
Then we’ll visit a quiet village where you can have a short walk and take in the authentic Delta village life surrounding you. Then we take a Xe Loi (a kind of motorized rickshaw) to a riverside restaurant for a delicious lunch, featuring local specialties like elephant-ear fish and river shrimp.
Following lunch, we round out the tour with a sampan cruise along serene water coconut canals, before returning you to Saigon.
