  • 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 family will serve you the yummy rice noodle pizza made by the member of the family….
  • Can Tho tropical fruit garden
    It is an educational and fun trip to learn some things about the trees and fruits, leaves and flowers at the fruit garden.
    Your lovely sampan keeps exploring the waterways and reaching to the local tropical orchard, your guide will share a lot of information about native tropical plants in the region, and you can savor some fresh seasonal fruits.

    What a romantic trip! Leave the crowds and the market behind and enjoy an intimate peaceful sampan ride in the secret canals on the way back to the city.

You may catch the silhouettes of a gentle woman quietly taking guests across the canals by a tiny boat and the more.
