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.

Your sampan will stop the long-tail engine, but paddling slowly so that you can enjoy as much as possible the Can Tho nature’s song and magical napa palm, water coconut, freshwater mangrove, coconut canals…
  • Lung Ngoc Hoang Forest & wetland conservation
    About an hour drive from Can Tho city, the Lung Ngoc Hoang 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.
