Itinerary
  • Pick-up
    At 5:00 AM (or 07:00 AM), our car and tour guide will pick you up from your hotel and transfer to the boat station for embarking the sampan – an authentic traditional small boat for the tour.
  • Can Tho floating market and the sunrise (sometimes) sampan ride
    Arrive at Cai Rang floating market – a must see in Can Tho, Mekong Delta. Your guide will explain and tell you why "early market" "why floating market here" and "why floating market is getting smaller after every 365 days" "why we should see it in real life, real smell before it disappears" and more. The experience includes the best noodle soup on the river tour. Even our guide will take care of your vegetarian breakfast as well. Find a reason to interact with the river life and enjoy the freshest pineapple in your tour.
  • Can Tho rice noodle factory (not rice paper)
    Firstly, we do not want you to miss this place. They call it a factory but actually it is run by a family and a lot more authentic than you expect (no shops, no souvenirs). Secondly, the rice noodle is not rice paper. How and Why? Your guide will tell you! You’ll be impressed by the colorful rice noodles, and how fascinating the rice noodles are made by locals. The tour includes a yummy rice noodle pizza made by a member of the family.
  • Can Tho tropical fruit garden
    It is an educational and fun trip to learn some things about the native trees and fruits, leaves and flowers at the fruit garden. The tour includes walking around the garden and listening to the tour guide’s stories and tasting the fresh seasonal fruits.
  • Can Tho small canals, quiet, empty and with no tourists
    What a romantic trip! Leave the crowds and the market behind and enjoy an intimate peaceful sampan ride in the small canals in the village. Watching the local children playing in the water, the locals preparing things for their daily routines. You may catch the silhouettes of a gentle woman quietly taking guests across the canals by a tiny boat and the more.
  • Optional: Biking in the village (Tell your tour guide if you want to skip the bike tour!)
    The countryside bike tour is the perfect break away from Can Tho city! Biking around the village and along the small canals is not only fun and active but also for responsible travel and environmentally friendly of the destination you bike. Enjoy a refreshment break halfway through the tour and get to know more about the local life as an insider.
  • Can Tho organic cacao farm
    Your lovely sampan keeps reaching the organic cacao farm, was built in the 1960s and has been maintained until now, where the guide will tell you interesting stories about cacao and Mr. Cacao and how to make chocolates, wines, cosmetics…Have a glass of cacao milk (included).
  • The authentic lunch is included on tour.
  • Forest & wetland conservation
    About an hour drive from Can Tho city, the 2,800-hectare wetland conservation is one of Can Tho hidden gems for anyone who loves to see a real Mekong Delta beside Can Tho floating market.
    Exploring and weaving in the untouched wetland of the Mekong delta by boat gives the best experience about the wildlife and nature. Wonderful natural green canals and feeling like nowhere in Vietnam. Then, get to the 25-meter observation tower to enjoy the fascinating view over the wetland forest and the stunning seasonal rice fields. (About one and a half hours in the forest, more or less, depend on your speed and birdwatching time). Take an amazing light trekking about 1,2km (or boat again, transfer back to the station if you do not want the easy trekking with the flat path) in nature for watching native birds.
  • Giant ficus microcarpa tree
    Visit a famous old giant ficus microcarpa tree - a great place for VC to camouflage and hide means of warfare and trained guerrillas. Your guide will absolutely explain more interesting things about war sides in the Mekong region.
  • End the tour
