Desde que comenzó el día, supe que iba a ser especial. A las 4 de la mañana me recogieron en Sa Dec, y una hora y media después estaba navegando en un sampán por el río de Can Tho junto a Duy, nuestro guía tan simpático como profesional.
El mercado flotante de Cai Rang es algo que hay que vivir al menos una vez. Ver a la gente comerciando desde sus barcas, desayunando, cortando piñas, y compartiendo sonrisas fue increíble. Duy nos explicó todo con detalle y mucho cariño.
El jardín de frutas tropicales fue un descanso perfecto: caminamos entre árboles de longan, rambután, guayaba… y comimos fruta fresca en plena naturaleza.
Después llegamos a una pequeña fábrica familiar de fideos. Todo hecho a mano, con colores naturales y mucha pasión. Me encantó probar la especie de “pizza” de fideos crujientes con salsa picante.
Y la sorpresa final: una granja de cacao. Aprendimos cómo hacen el chocolate desde la semilla, probamos leche de cacao y hasta un licor de cacao muy sabroso.
El almuerzo fue delicioso y relajado, bajo la sombra de los árboles. Una experiencia auténtica, íntima y muy bien organizada. ¡Gracias Duy!
This tour was the highlight of my trip to Vietnam. I got picked up from my hotel in Sa Dec at 4 AM and, though sleepy, the peaceful ride to Can Tho was a nice way to start the day.
Minh greeted me with energy and a big smile. The floating market was mesmerizing — such a buzz of life! Minh explained the trading culture, and we got to eat fresh pineapple from a boat vendor. “Good morning, Mekong!” indeed.
Afterward, we visited a tranquil fruit garden where I tried jackfruit and milk apple for the first time — both delicious! Minh had great stories about each fruit and how locals use them.
The noodle factory was next — absolutely fascinating. The colors, the steam, the rhythm of the work… it was almost hypnotic. And that noodle pizza with chili and herbs? Addictive!
Then came the cacao farm — unexpected and totally wonderful. I had no idea Vietnam had cacao farms. Minh walked us through the whole process, and we got to try cacao nibs, cacao wine, and creamy milk. So unique.
Lunch was hearty and homemade, just the way I like it. What a beautiful, personal experience this whole tour was.
