What To Expect
The Mekong Delta is one of the most popular destinations in Vietnam due to its distinctly tropical vibe and relaxing ambience. Everyday, thousands of tourists visit the area, which makes it vulnerable to exploitation, however. Only those who are familiar with the region know how to avoid the chaos and get to the heart of this tropical gem while avoiding these crowds, and luckily for you, our local guides are one of those people.
Do you know that most daily activities in the Mekong Delta take place on the water? The great Mekong River runs through the delta with numerous canals and streams found throughout. These shapes the unique lifestyle here, as people live and trade on their boats.
From the moment you set foot on this land, you will feel a genuinely welcoming vibe from the local people. Due to the uniquely fertile geography, people here enjoy an abundant supply of food all year round, so generation after generation have developed an optimistic attitude and a distinctly laid back lifestyle because of this. Despite Vietnam's fast economic development, their old way of life remains.
A bicycle ride around the village will give you a closer look at the local lifestyle here. You may see people napping on hammocks, children cycling to school, or hear the sound of a karaoke session echoing from some local house beneath the coconut trees.
Duration: 8 hours
