- Cai Rang - 8:00 am – Reach Can Tho, the heart of the Mekong Delta, and start the day with a visit to Cai Rang Floating Market. As you cruise along the Mekong River, observe the daily life of locals along the riverbanks—spot traditional homes, lush orchards, bustling boat-building yards, and vibrant markets where people make their living.
Enjoy breakfast right at the floating market, a unique and unforgettable experience. Relish a simple yet delightful local meal while gently swaying on the boat as waves pass by, adding a touch of excitement. Simultaneously, soak in the lively morning atmosphere, filled with cheerful voices and the sounds of river life. Be sure to try two local specialties at Cai Rang: “shaken noodles” and “braised coffee.”
- Can Tho - Afterwards, your guide will lead you to several traditional workshops, where you can see how locals make “Hu Tieu” (rice vermicelli). These noodles are soft, flat, slightly chewy, and pleasantly smooth.
Next, continue by boat to another stop where you can enjoy fresh pineapple—often referred to as the “queen of fruits.” The vendor will peel it right in front of you so you can savor it immediately on the boat.
- Can Tho - Lunch time: enjoy lunch with a local menu
- Con Son - After visiting the floating market, check out and travel to Son Islet on the Hau River, a serene area known for its lush orchards and welcoming locals.
Upon arrival, explore a floating fish farm and try the popular koi fish foot massage. Walk through the islet’s villages, visit local gardens, and enjoy picking and tasting fresh fruits. You can also experience the traditional monkey bridge.
Activities include making local cakes, watching rice popping, and seeing snakehead fish performances. A highlight is the “flying menu,” where each household prepares a dish, offering a shared community dining experience.
