• Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee - The journey begins in Ho Chi Minh City, heading towards the Cai Be Floating Market.
• Cai Be Floating Market - The Mekong Delta gained international recognition during what locals refer to as the anti-American War. It is also renowned for its floating markets, including the Cai Be Floating Market.

Situated in the middle of the Tien River, it borders three provinces: Vinh Long, Tien Giang, and Ben Tre.

For those with limited time, a Mekong Delta tour to Cai Be Floating Market offers a glimpse into the quintessential Vietnam. Along the way, travelers can admire the expansive green paddy fields stretching to the horizon (a 2-hour drive).

Upon arrival in Cai Be, visitors will board a boat to explore the lush vegetation of the Mekong Delta and the vibrant floating market. Following this, guests can enjoy a delightful boat ride through the maze of shady canals to reach a local orchard and savor fresh tropical fruits. Regarding attire, most performers of “đờn ca tài tử” are friends and neighbors, often wearing everyday clothes during performances. In the Southern region, the primary attire is the “áo bà ba,” a traditional costume unique to the Vietnam Mekong River. In recent years, to cater to visitors, traditional music groups have formed several clubs. Besides their regular jobs, they perform upon request. During performances, they help listeners connect with the song’s content. Notably, they possess a remarkable ability to internalize a song deeply. They enable listeners to gain a deeper understanding of Vietnam’s southern land, characterized by its intricate river systems. For generations, the imagery of local boats, wherries, rivers, and bridges has been deeply ingrained in the lives of the locals. From birth, they are immersed in the vast sky and land. As they grow, they navigate bamboo bridges. While fishing, casting nets, or transporting goods to the market, they remain closely tied to the expansive waters. “Đờn ca tài tử” songs vividly express the Southern people’s emotions through depictions of rivers and boats. The music profoundly touches the listener’s soul, providing relaxation after a long day of work.

Additionally, visitors can observe the daily activities of the local handicraft villages. A break for lunch at the orchard fruit garden offers a delightful experience. From there, guests can enjoy a leisurely bicycle ride through the villages, take in the sights, or relax in a hammock. The journey continues by boat to Cai Be town for a land market visit. Finally, a van will transport guests back to Saigon, concluding the trip.
