Guests are collected from hotels in Districts 1, 3, and 4 around 5 a.m. and meet the guide before traveling by air-conditioned minivan for about three hours to Can Tho, with a rest stop en route. Upon arrival, the tour includes a motorboat cruise on the Mekong River to Cai Rang Floating Market, the largest market of its kind in Vietnam. Here, visitors spend about an hour and a half viewing the busy boats selling tropical fruits and local goods, and enjoy a noodle breakfast served on the river. The tour continues with a visit to a local flea market showcasing everyday life in the delta. Next, the group spends an hour at Ninh Kieu Wharf visiting a workshop where rice paper and fresh noodles are made, followed by a walk through tropical fruit gardens with chances to sample fruits. Afterward, the tour proceeds to Cai Be Village, where guests have lunch from a five-course set menu and watch a simple cooking demonstration. There is also time to cycle in the village before returning to Ho Chi Minh City. The return drive takes about two hours, ending with drop-off at the original pick-up hotel or a central city location. The tour lasts approximately 11 to 12 hours in total and includes hotel transfers, all boat rides (motorboat and hand-rowed boat), lunch, drinks (two 500ml bottles per person), snacks, local taxes, and a Vietnamese English-speaking guide. The group size is limited to 12 guests for a small-group setting. A bicycle ride is part of the activities at Cai Be. Personal expenses, tips, some drinks (beer and soft drinks), and travel insurance are not included.
