Itinerary
8:00 AM – Your VN Bike Tour guide will pick you up at your hotel to begin a captivating journey into the tranquil heart of the Mekong Delta.
After a scenic 2-hour drive, we’ll board a leisurely boat cruise along the Tien River, passing through four lush islets. Savor the taste of freshly made coconut candy, visit a local honey bee farm, stroll through vibrant orchard gardens, sample a variety of seasonal tropical fruits, and enjoy the soothing melodies of traditional folk music. Next, we’ll drift peacefully on a rowboat through a serene mangrove palm canal, immersing ourselves in the calm beauty of this unique ecosystem. Then, we’ll hop on a traditional horse-drawn carriage to explore the countryside in a truly local style.
Back on the mainland, you’ll discover the fascinating “Tree of Heaven” and learn how this remarkable plant plays an essential role in the lives of local people. We’ll continue our adventure by bike, pedaling through picturesque rural landscapes where vehicles can’t reach. This is your chance to experience the untouched beauty of the countryside, far from the hustle and bustle. After cycling for about 7–10 km, we’ll pass through a lively local market, pedal past tropical fruit gardens, and cross a charming bridge offering stunning views of the vast mangrove palm forests. Our next stop is a coconut garden, where you’ll have the chance to harvest coconuts straight from the trees. Then, indulge in a delicious, traditional homemade lunch made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients – a true taste of the Mekong Delta.
After a delightful lunch, we’ll head back to Saigon, bringing an end to this unforgettable journey.
