Itinerary
Imagine a day spent drifting through the emerald waterways and vibrant villages of the Mekong Delta—this full-day My Tho boat trip offers exactly that. Departing from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City’s district 1 around 7:30 am, you’ll travel to My Tho and Ben Tre provinces, taking in the lush rice fields and scenic riverbanks along the way.
Your adventure includes a visit to the tranquil Vinh Trang pagoda, a leisurely boat ride past unique stilt houses, and explorations of fruit plantations and fishing villages. Board a sampan to cruise around the picturesque Tortoise Islands, where you’ll enjoy lunch in a verdant orchard. The journey continues to An Khanh in Ben Tre—a quieter corner of the delta—where hand-rowed boats glide through coconut-shaded canals.
Sample tropical fruits, listen to live folk music, and discover the art of coconut candy making at a local business. Roam through plantations and rural villages, gaining first-hand insight into the pastoral rhythms of delta life. By 5 pm, you’re back in Saigon, having experienced the region’s natural beauty and community spirit.
This tour’s unique selling point lies in its off-the-beaten-path encounters and the chance to immerse yourself in the genuine lifestyle of the Mekong Delta.
