Deeper into the Mekong Delta tour (Ben Tre)
- Visit the less crowded area of the Mekong Delta.
- Enjoy a boat trip over the Mekong Delta river.
- Visit different local villages and workshops along the river.
Morning
Start your day with a morning pickup (around 8:00 – 8:30 am) from your hotel and hop aboard a comfortable minivan that will take you on a journey to the stunning Ben Tre in the Mekong Delta, only 90km away and approximately 2 hours’ drive.
Once you arrive in Ben Tre, get ready for an stunning boat trip along the serene rivers and canals. As you cruise through the waterways, you will witness the daily life of the locals, and get a glimpse of the unique culture that the Mekong Delta has to offer. Get your camera ready for some amazing photo opportunities!
During the boat trip, you will visit a brick kiln factory to witness the traditional brick-making process.
Then, head to a coconut processing workshop and discover how locals make various products from coconuts, including coconut candy and coconut oil. Lastly, you will visit a local mat-weaving house to observe the intricate process of weaving mats, a traditional craft in the Mekong Delta.
Visit a peaceful village and take a leisurely stroll to observe the daily routines of the locals.
Experience the village in a unique way by choosing between two options: Take a bike ride and immerse yourself in the beautiful scenery of the Mekong, or hop on an Xe Loi (modern motorised rickshaw) and enjoy a comfortable ride through the village.
Afternoon
Whichever mode of transportation you choose, you’ll end up at a riverside restaurant, where you can indulge in local delicacies while taking in stunning views of the river.
After lunch, you will embark on an peaceful adventure through the smaller canals of the Mekong. On a traditional sampan boat, you’ll leisurely row through the calm waterways, taking in the serene beauty of the surrounding nature. Observe the daily life of the people living along the riverbanks.Â
As the sun starts to set, you’ll make your way back to Ho Chi Minh City, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel around 5:00 pm.
