Prepare to truly enjoy Ben Tre, Can Tho, and Vinh Long in 2 Days on this exciting tour. Here are some useful tips to make the best of these two days of this unparalleled excursion to the Mekong Delta. Let’s begin!
Comfortable clothing should be packed, just as it would be done in the warm, tropical climate of the Mekong Delta region. Light, breathable clothes, loose-fitting shirts, and shorts will help in keeping cool, along with a hat; but a light jacket is quite helpful during cooler evenings. One should not forget to apply sunscreen and insect repellent to protect oneself from the tropical sun and those pesky mosquitoes. First, it will take a camera to shoot all those wonderful moments; second, comfortable shoes-meaning walking shoes or sandals-in which it will be easy to explore.
The best time to join the Ben Tre, Can Tho, Vinh Long in 2 Days tour is during the dry season, from December to April when it is cool and less humid and rainy. The season provides an excellent window for outdoor activities and scenery boat trips. If you love fresh tropical fruits, the appropriate time to travel will be from June to August when Vinh Long enters its fruit harvest season. You will be able to taste the freshest mangoes, rambutans, and longans right from the orchard!
Further, while exploring the local communities in the Mekong Delta, be respectful and also mindful of cultural norms. Wearing decent clothes with shoulders and knees covered would be perfect for temple visits and people’s homes. A smile from you would be highly appreciated along with a friendly greeting. Salvadorians usually use a slight bow to show respect. It’s also polite to ensure you ask for permission before taking photos of people or their private properties.
Take plenty of water all through the day especially under a tropical sun, by always carrying a small bottle. Don’t forget to continually smear some mosquito repellent on you, or even more, when near the water or in the evening. Lastly, purchase travel insurance that includes but is not limited to medical expenses, cancellations of trips, and lost items. It is good sense, which may let your mind be at ease and enable you to give yourself totally to your tour with Mekong Tours.
