Can Tho floating fish farmTo begin Con Son islet tour, nothing can be as great as taking a boat sightseeing Can Tho Floating fish farm on Hau river. The river reflects the ups and downs of the fish farming village which has long been famous in the area. The locals made their floating house in the river for both living and fishing. Take a boat trip and go along the river, you see how the floating life happens and how the locals take care of their fish farm. Visitors can take leisure time to interact with the fisherman to learn about different interesting colorful freshwater fish and unlock the secrets of the river habitats on the Mekong river as well.

Thomas was such a chilled and thoughtful guide. I loved how this tour didn’t feel rushed or commercial at all. Floating fish farms were fascinating, and chatting with the locals was the best part. The flying fish thing? So fun. Kids would love it too! Then the garden—walking under all those fruit trees with sunshine pouring through the leaves… unforgettable. This is the kind of tour that makes you feel like you belong in the place, not just passing through.
Una delle esperienze più autentiche del mio viaggio in Vietnam. David ci ha guidati tra case galleggianti e orti tropicali con grande passione. Parlare con i pescatori e vedere il famoso spettacolo dei pesci volanti è stato divertente e sorprendente. Ma il momento migliore? Raccogliere e assaggiare frutti freschissimi sotto l’ombra degli alberi. Non è solo un tour, è un incontro umano.
