- Vinh Trang Temple - The first stop is the Vinh Trang Pagoda. A visit to Vinh Trang Pagoda provides an enchanting insight into the spiritual and cultural heritage of the Mekong Delta. Renowned for its distinctive blend of Vietnamese, Khmer, and Chinese architectural styles, the pagoda boasts impressive statues, colorful mosaics, and serene gardens. Strolling through its courtyards and tranquil ponds, visitors can enjoy a peaceful ambiance and appreciate the artistry and devotion that make this temple a remarkable destination in the area.
- My Tho - Guests board a medium-sized wooden or motorized boat, robust enough to traverse the expansive, flowing waters of the Mekong River. Unlike the narrow canals, the main river is broad and open, with a strong, steady current and a gentle sway beneath the feet. The open deck offers unobstructed views of the horizon, while a small shaded area provides protection from the sun.
As the boat glides through the water, the magnitude and power of the Mekong River become apparent. The river extends far and wide, with muddy brown waters flowing steadily downstream. On either side, the scenery alternates between lush green riverbanks, coconut palms, orchards, and occasional riverside villages.
- My Tho - Visit a local coconut candy or handicraft workshop to observe the production process and taste fresh coconut candies.
- My Tho - Lunch Time: Savor fresh Mekong Delta specialties such as river fish, shrimp, and tropical fruits. Relax and enjoy the river view.
- My Tho - Midway through the journey, the motorboat halts at a calm section of the river. Here, guests transfer to a smaller traditional rowing boat (sampan). The rower—often a skilled local—navigates the boat quietly through the river’s gentle waves, allowing guests to experience the Mekong as villagers have for generations.
- Tien Giang Province - Board the wooden boat to transfer back to the cruise port. Disembark from the boat.
- District 1 - Return to Ho Chi Minh City. Drop off at the hotel and conclude the service.
