Itinerary
To start our Mekong Delta tour, we will pick up our customers from their hotels and transfer them from Ho Chi Minh to Mekong Delta - Cai Be.
It may take us about 2 hours or more to arrive at the Hiep Duc - Tan Phong ferry. After arriving, we will continue to board the boat to Tan Phong Island. Tourists can experience the ferry ride with locals to the hotel.
Arriving at the hotel, tourists can firstly take a walk around the hotel campus to see fruit gardens and colorful flower gardens. Tourists can also pick and enjoy fruits for free on the spot, such as apples, guava, strawberries, Thai Toad, and To Nu jackfruit.
Now officially starting our Mekong Delta tour by bike, tourists will receive bicycles to discover and participate in activities with the local people on Tan Phong Island.
Firstly, we visit Ms. Ba's house to see the process of making rice paper rolls. Ms. Ba will guide tourists to make rice cakes by themselves.
Leaving Ms. Ba’s house, we continue to visit Ms. Huong's sugarcane juice stall and enjoy a glass of fresh and nutritious sugarcane juice. Tourists can relax in the hammocks before saying goodbye to Ms. Huong.
After a rest in Ms. Huong’s juice stall, you will surely feel more energetic to continue our trip to visit Ms. Hai's house and learn how to knit a hammock with banana rope.
Then we go to Ms. Thao's house to learn how to knit water hyacinth. Tourists can knit themselves a lovely gift with the guidance of Ms. Thao.
This will be a very meaningful souvenir for you after this fabulous Mekong Delta tour.
After a long and meaningful bike trip, you may need to rest, so get back to the hotel and participate in the jackfruit cake-making activity with the guidance of Ms. Tam.
The cake is said to be a specialty of Tan Phong Island - we will make cakes and enjoy them together.
Now it’s time to finish our best Mekong Delta tour, we will take the ferry back to the other side of the river to go back to Ho Chi Minh City or Can Tho.
After about 2 hours, we will return to the hotel in Ho Chi Minh City or Can Tho.
