This is an ideal tour for those who want to take up a mixture of culture, history, and natural beauty in Vietnam’s most fascinating region.
Good morning, adventurers! Our fantastic journey begins with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City, where we head south to the magnificent Mekong Delta. En route to the west, you can have your first look at the lush, vibrant landscape of the region. First, we stopped at My Tho, where we had to stop and have a bowl of Hu Tieu My Tho noodles with soup and a very special taste that you never tasted before anywhere else. This was just the perfect kick-off for our Mekong Tours.
My Tho
By noon, we arrive in Ca Mau, check into the hotel, and take some rest. Later, as the sun starts to set, we take a tour of the lively local night market. Walk through the hustle and bustle of rainbow-colored stalls; taste fresh seafood delicacies such as tôm tít and chả trứng mực; drink in the energetic atmosphere along Phan Ngoc Hien Street. Well, it’ll be an evening of local culture and flavors that you’re getting yourself into-totally unforgettable, for sure!
Dat Mui
We then drove to the southernmost point of Vietnam called Dat Mui after a hefty breakfast, where the East Sea meets the West Sea. In truth, it is a different destination worth seeing with marvelous views and ample opportunities for photoshoots, especially in the Cape Ca Mau Cultural Park, where the iconic ship monument stands proudly. Enjoy refreshing coastal air while exploring this remarkable natural wonder. We will then have a scrumptious lunch at a local restaurant with some dishes of Dat Mui that highlight the freshness of the Mekong Delta flavors.
Afternoon: Continue to visit from Ca Mau to Bac Lieu then visit two historical sites: Cha Diep Church (Tắc Sậy) the spiritual site with a touching story; And the House of Bac Lieu Dandy an impressive mansion whitehats an interesting story of a playboy in Bac Lieu. We will arrive in Bac Lieu in the late afternoon, and you are free to enjoy the evening market, taste local delicious street food according to your cravings, and enjoy the very friendly atmosphere of the town.
Cha Diep Church
Every morning is a new adventure, as we leave Bac Lieu for Soc Trang, another jewel of the Mekong Delta, and one of the first stops is at the Cao Van Lau Theater-a cultural hub that celebrates heritage from the Vietnamese opera and the life of its most famous composer. Further on are the great Khmer temples: the famous Chua Doi, or Bat Pagoda, with its remarkably serene grounds and its unusual resident fruit bats, and the Chua Dat Set, or Clay Pagoda, famous for the intricate sculptures in clay created single-handedly by one artisan over several decades.

Our final day starts with a leisurely morning: first-class breakfast, then hotel check-out.
