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) for the Cai Rang Floating Market.
- 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 7:30 AM, get in the car in Can Tho and depart for Lung Ngoc Hoang forest.
- Explore Lung Ngoc Hoang Nature Reserve, a 2,800-hectare wetland forest in the Mekong Delta. Cruise through wild canals by boat and experience rich wildlife and nature.
- Upon arrival at the forest & wetland conservation area, the driver or tour guide (if selected option) will assist you with boat tickets (included). Enjoy a wonderful boat trip along wild canals. Then visit the 25–meter observation tower to enjoy panoramic views over the wetland forest and seasonal rice fields. (Approximately 1.5 hours in the forest, depending on your pace and sightseeing time.)
- Visit a famous giant old ficus microcarpa tree - a historic site where the Viet Cong used to camouflage and hide weapons during the war. Your guide (if selected option) will share more interesting stories about the Mekong region’s history.
- At the end of the forest tour in Can Tho, you will be transferred back to your hotel or meeting point by car/taxi at around 11:30 AM in Can Tho (or around 12:00 PM at Can Tho Airport for a 3:00 PM flight, or around 4:00 PM at your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, depending on your selected tour option).
