Sailing on a traditional wooden boat to Can Tho on quiet branches of the Mekong River offers an opportunity to leisurely observe the locals’ daily activities from the water. The tour highlights are the floating markets of Cai Be, Cai Rang and Phong Dien where hundreds of sampans gather to trade all kinds of fruit brought from neighbouring orchards. Do not miss a bike trip across Thoi Son Islet in My Tho and a stroll on Binh Hoa Phuoc Islet in Vinh Long where tasty fruit and warm hospitality await visitors. Full board and two nights’ accommodation on board are included.
