A trip to the Mekong Delta offers a fascinating glimpse into the unique agrarian life of this vibrant southern region of Vietnam. You'll embark on a relaxing cruise along the Mekong River to one of the islands near My Tho, where you'll be entertained with traditional music. While enjoying the melodies, you'll sip tea sweetened with bee honey and savour seasonal fresh fruits, experiencing the local flavours.

Next, you'll take a paddle boat to navigate through the narrow canals of the Mekong. An interesting aspect of transportation in this region is that most locals travel by boat due to the extensive network of interlaced canals. This well-developed system of water transportation allows you to discover many unique sights, including picturesque banks lined with coconut trees.

During the paddle boat ride, you'll get an intriguing look at the local cottage industry, particularly the process of making coconut candy. Afterwards, you'll enjoy a delicious lunch featuring ‘Elephant-Ear Fish’ along with other traditional Vietnamese dishes, highlighting the region’s culinary specialities. To conclude your trip, you'll visit Vinh Trang Pagoda, a national historical and cultural relic known for its distinctive architectural and spiritual significance - a place not to be missed.
