10:30 AM: Motorboat Ride Along the Tien River
We will now take a motorboat up the stream to cruise on this noble Tien River of the Mekong Delta. During our cruise down the river, you will pass by the famous Rach Mieu Bridge and some floating fish farms with a very long history. Down the waterway, we will bring into view four famous islets Long (Dragon), Lan (Unicorn), Quy (Tortoise), and Phung  (Phoenix), each of which conceals an interesting local legend.

11:30 AM: Dragon Island Exploration
Our boat brings us to Dragon Island, or Con Lan in Vietnamese, where a series of delights awaits. Fresh, seasonal tropical fruits will be savored with the accompaniment of live performances of traditional southern Vietnamese music, Don Ca Tai Tu. Then a visit to a honeybee farm will introduce us to beekeeping, and afterward, a refreshing cup of honey tea with lemon will be to perfect energy boost for the day.

12:30 PM: Paddle Through Water Coconut Groves
The show is followed by a gentle cruise on paddle boats through thick groves of water coconuts. The cruise is so serenely paced that the sight of being amidst the beauty of the Mekong Delta could be just a piece of plain relaxation amidst its scenic splendor.

3:00 PM: Phoenix Island (Cồn Phụng) and Crocodile Farm
After lunch, we visited the interesting history of Phoenix Island, with its interesting history related to the mystical figure Dao Dua, otherwise known as the Coconut Monk. While here, explore the island attractions and its spiritual legacy, and for the more adventurous traveler, take a shot at catching crocodiles-you will have to pay for this thrill-seeking action on your own. This stop is very educational and adds yet another layer of excitement to your Mekong Tours experience.
