A Wonderful Full-Day Journey Through the Mekong Delta - We had an incredible experience on the Full Day Mekong Delta Discovery Group Tour. The day started with a hotel pick-up after breakfast, and soon we left the hustle and bustle of Ho Chi Minh City behind as we drove to My Tho. Our first stop was the peaceful Vinh Trang Pagoda, a beautiful temple dating back to the late 19th century, which set the tone for the cultural immersion ahead. From there, we boarded a sampan and began cruising the Mekong River, passing the four picturesque islands named Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise. On Unicorn Island, we enjoyed a walk along small country lanes surrounded by orchards, sampled delicious tropical fruits, and listened to traditional folk songs performed by locals—a truly authentic and memorable experience. We also visited a fruit plantation, honey-bee farm (where we tasted honey tea), and a coconut candy workshop, learning about local family businesses along the way. The hand-rowed sampan ride through the narrow Thoi Son canal was a highlight—quiet, lush, and breathtakingly beautiful. Lunch at a local restaurant was plentiful and tasty, with time to relax before continuing the afternoon activities. Later, we had the chance to cycle around Tan Thach village, where we met friendly villagers and got a glimpse of daily life in the Mekong Delta. For those who preferred to take it easy, hammocks and a cool breeze made for the perfect alternative. Overall, this tour was well-organized, varied, and gave us a deeper appreciation for the culture, food, and lifestyle of the Mekong Delta. A perfect day trip from Ho Chi Minh City—highly recommended!

A Memorable Mekong Delta Journey with Guide Lily - During our trip to the Mekong Delta, we visited a coconut factory and learned how coconuts are processed into candy and other products. It was fascinating to see the traditional methods still preserved today. Afterwards, we enjoyed a relaxing boat ride along the river, surrounded by water coconut and peaceful scenery. Our guide Lily was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive, sharing many interesting stories about local culture and daily life. Thanks to her, the experience felt both educational and enjoyable, making the Mekong Delta journey truly memorable.
