Posted by Danny_nguyen on February 5, 2010 at 9:01 am

DAY 1: Saigon – Cai Be – Vinh Long – Can Tho
This trip provides a look at a wide variety of the life and scenery of the delta. On the way you can see green rice paddy fields stretching towards the horizon. After arrival in Cai Be, a boat takes you to the floating market with sellers and buyers bargaining and exchanging goods from their boats. Then we take a boat ride through the maze of shady small canals visiting the An Binh Islands (Vinh Long). We will enjoy tropical fruits, see how people cultivate their orchards, make their living from ceramics, popcorn and rice paper… A nice chance for bicycle riding, roaming through the village and looking at the way to Can Tho. Overnight in Can Tho.

DAY 2: Can Tho – Cai Rang – Phong Dien – Sai Gon
Cursing along the small and picturesque tributaries by rowing boat, we will see the Cai Rang floating market (the nicest one with heaps of rowing boats). Take in the beautiful scenery and the daily activities of the locals who live along the Mekong canals and you will roam through the village to visit a rice husking mill and a rice noodles making shop… A stop at Can Tho market and a boat ride back to Cai Von where a bus will drive you back to HCMC. Back to Saigon at 7.00pm end of service.
