Boat through rice paddies, visit floating markets, and taste tropical fruits on the Mekong.
About this place
A day trip to the Mekong Delta is one of the most rewarding experiences near Saigon. Travel 2 hours south to Bến Tre or Mỹ Tho, where you'll board a wooden boat to weave through narrow canals lined with coconut palms. Visit local workshops making coconut candy, honey farms, and traditional fishing villages. The floating markets are a highlight.
💡 Local Tips
Book through a reputable tour operator from District 1. Avoid rainy season (June–August) for the best boat conditions.
