Deep in and experience the daily life of the vibrant Mekong Delta region in the South of Vietnam.
Pick up at hotel and transfer to Cai Be town, about 160km southwest of Saigon. On the way we can enjoy some typical farming works on the rice fields, depending on each crop.
Upon arrival at Cai Be, take a cruise on Tien Giang River to Binh Hoa Phuoc Island to visit the rice-paper making and rice crisp family factories of the Mekong people, and then take a short walk to visit a Coconut candy factory. You can find how to make the candy and have some products from local people here as a lovely gift to your friends or relatives. Go on via a small canal to visit an Ancient House of over 100 years and take a walk along the village roads, we will have a good impression of the house décor of the Mekong people and the way they worship ancestors in normal life. Take a boat trip to a local typical house and take a walk in a guava garden before enjoying traditional music “don ca tai tu” in the garden.
Lunch is served at local restaurant. Late afternoon we can go biking around to visit the island by ourselves, or discover the neighborhood and intermingle with the local people. Dinner at the local house where we will stay overnight (in Vinh Long).
After a local breakfast, take our leisure time to discover the village, say goodbye to the owner and take a boat back to our car.
