Day trips from Can Tho — FAQ

What are the best day trips from Can Tho?
Phong Dien floating market and the orchards behind it at 20 km, Con Son islet at 30 minutes by boat, the Lung Ngoc Hoang wetland reserve at two hours, the Bang Lang stork garden at 45 minutes, and Chau Doc with the Tra Su cajuput forest as a long day upriver.
How do you get around the Mekong Delta from Can Tho?
By boat for anything on the water and by road for the rest — buses connect the provincial towns, but the dyke roads to the orchards and reserves realistically need a guided tour, a car with a driver or a rented motorbike.
How much is a day trip from Can Tho?
The Lung Ngoc Hoang nature reserve trip costs about €21, guided cycling days in Phong Dien €26–€40, and long day trips to Chau Doc or onward Mekong Delta routes €50–€120 depending on transport and group size.
