Overview

The Mekong Delta Discovery 8-Hour Small-Group Boat Tour with Lunch from Ho Chi Minh City begins at the Saigon Opera House, where guests meet the local English-speaking guide. The group then travels by private vehicle for about two and a half hours to the city of My Tho. Upon arrival, guests board a private longtail boat for a cruise on the Mekong River. The boat first stops at a fish farm to observe local aquaculture. Next, the tour visits an island with tropical gardens where guests can taste fresh fruit. The boat then continues to a coconut candy factory on another island, where visitors see how the candy is made and sample a coconut drink. After the boat cruise, the group rides a motorized cart (Xe Loi) to a bee farm. Following this, guests transfer to a rowing boat to explore the smaller canals of the Mekong Delta. Lunch is served at Vuon Dau restaurant and includes a set menu with dishes such as Elephant Ear fish, Vietnamese pancake (Bánh Xèo), Mekong lobsters, Mekong sour soup, and braised pork in coconut juice with quail eggs served with rice. After lunch, the group returns to My Tho and then travels back by private vehicle to Ho Chi Minh City, where guests are dropped off at their hotels. Entrance fees, boat rides, lunch, and the services of the local guide are included. The tour lasts approximately eight hours and is suitable for guests aged six and older. Dietary requests for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free options can be accommodated if notified at least 24 hours in advance.
