This private day trip focuses on Bến Tre town in the Mekong Delta, offering a quieter alternative to typical tours. The journey starts with a hotel pickup in Ho Chi Minh City around 8 am, followed by a two-hour drive to Bến Tre. Upon arrival, guests board a motorboat to explore one of the Mekong's tributaries, observing local river activities. The tour includes a visit to traditional brick kilns known for their beehive-shaped structures that produce bricks using local methods. Next is a coconut-processing workshop where visitors see how coconut candy and oil are made, with a chance to taste coconut juice and candies. Then, a visit to a local family introduces guests to traditional mat-making and offers fruit and tea while providing insight into rural daily life. Guests then take a motor cart or cycle ride through shaded roads, passing green fields and vegetable plantations, learning about tropical farming from locals. A five-course lunch is served at a riverside restaurant, featuring dishes like elephant-ear fish and spring rolls; special dietary requests such as vegetarian, allergy-friendly, or Halal meals can be arranged in advance. The tour ends with a hand-rowed sampan ride along a calm canal before returning by private car to Ho Chi Minh City, arriving at the hotel around 5 pm. Included are all boat trips, tuk tuk or bicycle transport, a Vietnamese-English speaking guide, snacks, drinks, and hotel transfer.
