Itinerary
Your Travelmates guide will meet you at 8:00am for a full day tour to My Tho, the gateway to the Mekong Delta.
Known as the "rice bowl" of Vietnam, the Delta is the most fertile region in the country, and the main producer of rice and tropical fruits. From My Tho, you board your boat and leisurely travel to one of the beautiful islands located in the middle of the Mekong River.
Your tour guide will take you deep into the authentic heart of the Mekong Delta. Stroll through lush local gardens, visit family homes, sample fresh tropical fruits, sip on honey tea, and watch how coconut candy is handmade.
You will then board a smaller sampan and glide along peaceful canals by boat and enjoy traditional folk music performed by local artists. Enjoy a typical and delicious lunch with Vietnamese food in My Tho.
After lunch, visit the Vinh Trang Pagoda, one of the most beautiful and historic pagodas in the region. Admire its unique architecture, which blends traditional Vietnamese and Western styles, and take in the serene surroundings.
After the visit, return to Saigon by mid to late afternoon.

About Ho Chi Minh City
Ho Chi Minh City, still widely called Saigon, is Vietnam's buzzing commercial hub of French colonial landmarks, war history and superb street food.
District 1 holds the main sights within walking distance: the red-brick Notre-Dame Cathedral, the elegant Central Post Office with its vaulted hall, the colonial Opera House and the ornate City Hall. The Independence Palace preserves its rooms as they were at the end of the war, and the War Remnants Museum tells the story of the conflict with sobering directness.
