TOUR MAP
Itinerary By Day
- Pickup: At 5 AM, our English-speaking tour guide will pick you up from your hotel (if selected option) by car and transfer you to Ninh Kieu Pier to board an authentic small boat (sampan).
- Arrive at Cai Rang Floating Market – a must-see in Can Tho, Mekong Delta. Your guide will explain why it is an early morning floating market and how it is slowly disappearing. The experience includes the best noodle soup on the river (vegetarian option available). Find a reason to interact with the river life and enjoy fresh fruits during your tour.
- Visit the Mekong fish and farmers market (non-touristy) and see the Delta’s true heartbeat. It is where locals trade fresh fish, fruits, and produce in a lively, authentic setting untouched by mass tourism. You will witness real daily life, colorful scenes, and the strong sense of community that sustains the Mekong.
- Fresh seasonal tropical fruits are also included during the tour.
- Around 8:30 AM, continue to explore Son Islet, a community-based tourism experience.
- Upon arrival, take a short local boat ride of about 5 minutes across the Mekong River to Son Islet. This peaceful island is known for its lush orchards, friendly locals, and authentic Mekong lifestyle, offering a refreshing escape from the city.
- Visit a seasonal fruit garden where you can stroll among tropical fruit trees and learn about local farming practices from the gardeners. Depending on the season, you may see longan, rambutan, pomelo, star apple, coconut, or other fruits grown on the island. Enjoy fresh tropical fruits right at the orchard while experiencing daily life in the garden.
- Continue to another local house for the Flying Snakehead Fish show. On Son Islet, local farmers have trained snakehead fish to jump high out of the water simultaneously to catch food, creating a unique and entertaining spectacle that requires patience and years of practice.
- Continue to a local family's garden to experience the famous duck massage, one of Son Islet's most unusual attractions. Meet local residents, learn about their daily activities, and gain insight into life on a green Mekong River island.
- Take the boat trip from Son Islet back to the mainland.
- End your fun and educational floating market and Son Islet experience. You will be transferred back to your hotel or meeting point by car/taxi around 12:30 Noon (depending on your selected tour option).
