The Mekong Delta is beautiful all of the time; however, it would be best that you first consider its weather and the seasonal highlight to make the most of your trip. The best time to travel in the Mekong Delta is during the dry season, which runs from December to April. Pleasant weather turns more comfortable, with lower humidity and little or no rain, making this period just ideal for exploring this area with luscious landscapes and rivers of the delta.
If, however, you are a fruit enthusiast, you may want to make it between June and August during the fruit harvest season. That is the month when the orchards are full of fresh tropical fruits-rambutan, pomelo, and star apple. It partly falls in the rainy season, but there are only occult showers, and the greenery is just beautifully vibrant.
