Excursion to the Mekong Delta: My Tho & Ben Tre
Take a private transfer from the District 1 of Ho Chi Minh City to the river town of My Tho. With your private guide, you will first visit the elaborately decorated Vĩnh Tràng Pagoda. Afterwards, you will cruise around the well-known islets – Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise by boat. Here you will disembark for a walk on Unicorn Island and a chance to pick some delicious tropical fruits while being entertained by local singers. Then you will go to a small honey-bee farm on the Bến Tre’s Thới Sơn canal, where you will taste low-grade tea and honey on-site and fresh coconut candy from the factory. After having the delicious gourmet lunch served riverside from the Delta cuisine, you can choose to either bike through Tân Thạch Village or just lay on your own private hammock by some palm trees. Lastly, you will have a private transfer back to Ho Chi Minh City with the same relaxing experience returning as you had arriving.
Alternately, in the Mekong near My Tho, you can experience a guided bike tour from Saigon. This is a great way to pick and see the quiet countryside, see the local villages and enjoy the natural beauty of the Delta.
