Overview

This small-group 2-day tour starts with hotel pickup in Ho Chi Minh City's Districts 1, 3, and 4. The group travels by air-conditioned minivan to the Mekong Delta region. The tour includes motor-boat and hand-rowed boat rides on the river to visit a floating market and observe local life. Guests also take a bicycle ride through rural villages and countryside. In the evening, the group stays overnight at a local villager's house (homestay). During the homestay, participants join a cooking class where they prepare a traditional Vietnamese dinner with the host family. The next day includes breakfast at the homestay before continuing exploration of the area. Meals provided include lunch, breakfast, and snacks such as tropical fruits, coconut candy, and pop-rice. Bottled water is supplied at two 500ml bottles per person each day. An English-speaking Vietnamese guide accompanies the group, which is limited to about 10 guests. The tour covers all taxes and fees. Optional hotel accommodation instead of the homestay is available at extra cost. Personal expenses, beverages, tips, and transfers outside the city center are not included. Guests should bring a valid passport and follow a smart casual dress code. Children must be accompanied by an adult, and any dietary requirements should be communicated when booking.
