Best trip ever
We were collected from our hotel by the guide. There were 8 in the group on our trip – hailing from Australia and Denmark EU. We were driven to the Mekong which was a 2 1/2 hr drive with a stop on the way for drinks. When we arrived we boarded a boat which took us to the islands where we boarded smaller sampans – banana boats. What a fantastic experience rowing in the mangroves and so peaceful too.
We then were taken to the floating Cai Be markets which appeared to have almost finished – still very interesting. We stopped and bought some fruit and had a drink of coconut water.
We were then taken to small villages where we sampled snake wine, honey tea and coconut candy before having a delicious lunch. We were allowed to cook our own pancake. The food was absolutely delicious and fresh. We were given the opportunity to take a bike ride around the village which we enjoyed and proves that you never forget how to ride a bike.
We then set off back to base and relaxed in the coach ride back. The tour guide was always looking to show us things that made our trip so enjoyable. Highly recommended!
The Mekong Delta one day tour is long but worth it
The Mekong tour was the highlight of our family trip to Vietnam.
Our guide, Lot, was a Lot of fun! Bounding with energy, constantly joking, she also provided interesting context and cultural information.
The Mekong river boat ride gave us an interesting glimpse of the Vietnam rice economy, and local river life.
I was annoyed to be stopping at a touristy shop/cafe, but the multiple stalls showcasing how they turn rice into various forms and flavors (ie rice paper, rice candy, rice crispy treats, etc) was quite interesting and informative.
The delta village and countryside bike ride was beautiful and an interesting glimpse into rural delta life.
We ended with a picturesque row boat ride through the narrow canals.
A great day.
