Itinerary
Vinh Trang Temple
Departing from Ho Chi Minh City, leave the hustle behind as we head to the serene Mekong Delta. Our first stop is the magnificent Vinh Trang Pagoda, a unique fusion of European and Asian architecture. Marvel at this architectural treasure dating back to the 19th century, where intricate carvings, ornate design elements, and serene gardens offer a glimpse into Vietnam's spiritual heritage and rich cultural history. Featuring the most unique architectural style in Southern Vietnam, Vinh Trang Pagoda's highlight is its triple-gate entrance adorned with intricate ceramic and porcelain mosaics. Please note: The tour includes a visit to a temple, so please dress modestly with clothing that covers shoulders and knees.
My Tho
Then, we board a motorboat to cruise along the Tien River, witnessing the bustling life of local fishermen and seeing the four iconic islands: Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Turtle. This is the highlight! Step into a small hand-rowed sampan and drift through the narrow, palm-lined canals. It’s quiet, peaceful, and perfect for photos. We’ll stop at local workshops to see how coconut candy is made by hand and taste fresh honey tea right from the bee farm. Discover authentic Delta charm. Visit a fruit orchard where you'll experience local honey harvesting and enjoy refreshing honey tea tastings amid lush tropical surroundings. Continue to a traditional workshop to witness the intricate process of making the region's famous coconut candy.
Ben Tre
Relax at a riverside restaurant for a proper Mekong lunch. Forget the boxed meals; we serve a hot set menu including the region's signature Deep-fried Elephant Ear Fish, spring rolls, and local soup. Walk through fruit orchards, taste fresh seasonal fruits, and enjoy a live performance of Southern Vietnamese Folk Music by the locals before a comfortable ride back to Saigon.

Amazing tour with Lam
This was an amazing tour. Lam was amazing, he is so knowledgable and explains with great detail. He I also had a witty sense of humour, making this any forgettable tour. The minibus that fetched us was clean, classy and professional. The tour had everything included from transfer, to boat rides, lunch, delicious fruits, music to meeting locals. Definitely recommended.

Magnificent Mekong Adventure
Lam is such a thoughtful tour guide. He explained everything so thoroughly and graciously took pictures for me as solo traveler. Mr. Minh, the driver, transported us safely to each stop throughout the day. You can tell that each part of the tour was selected to provide a quick introduction to different aspects of the region: pagoda, coconut candy production, bike ride through a local neighborhood, delicious lunch, and boat rides. This tour was a wonderful start to my Vietnam vacation.
