Mekong Delta 1 Day Tour 

Chill on the non-touristy Mekong river and canals 

The Mekong Delta is famous for being a fertile land surrounded by rivers. Therefore, it would be a pity to visit this location without at least once taking a boat excursion along the river and enjoying the airy, refreshing ambiance. This activity is exactly a highlight of Western Vietnam - Mekong Delta Day Trip

Once you step on the boat, your space will become very private. There will be no other tourists besides your group, and there won't be any buy-and-sell advertisements or other sounds than the sound of boat engines operating on the lake and the Central region's winds blowing. 

Embarking on a Mekong River Boat

In addition to the peaceful natural scenery, you also have the opportunity to witness how the houses along the riverside of the people of Western Vietnam are built. Moreover, riverside coconut factories, dense green coconut groves, and the occasional appearance of cargo ships, carrying coconuts, are also part of creating a unique scene in the Mekong Delta.
