Phong Dien floating market is the priority oneWhen you arrive, weave around the sampan, have a cup of coffee, tea and enjoy the rowing sampan market where the local sell to local only. (about 10 local boats there, maybe 2 or 3, maybe nothings, please make sure you like the canals in Phong Dien, this is your tour. We don't think to call 10 boats as a "market"- this news updated from July 2024)

From the moment we boarded the little sampan in the early morning light, I knew this would be special. Hannah made the whole experience seamless — informative but not overwhelming. Phong Dien had only a few boats, which we appreciated more than a big touristy crowd. Cai Rang was a bit busier, and watching life unfold from the water was amazing. The canal cruise after was so peaceful, and the orchard walk was full of delicious surprises. Making noodles and chatting with the family was the cherry on top. Can’t recommend this tour enough if you want authenticity and heart.
朝4時に出発しましたが、全く後悔なしです。クリスさんの説明がとても分かりやすくて、文化を感じることができました。Phong Dienはボートが少なかったですが、静かで本物の雰囲気が素晴らしかった。Cai Rangは活気があって、ボートで食べたパイナップルが美味しかったです。その後の果樹園や、ヌードル作りの家族の優しさも印象的でした。「ヌードルピザ」は忘れられない味です。心温まるツアーでした。
