VIETNAM’S LEADING BATTLEFIELD TOUR OPERATOR
Join us for a journey through the history of Vietnam conflicts.
A TASTE OF MEKONG DELTA ( DAY TOUR )
There’s something soothing about Vietnam's Mekong Delta. Just a short drive from Saigon, the Delta’s riverside city of Ben Tre, lush islets and lazy rivers will instantly make you feel more relaxed. You can easily spend weeks exploring the Delta, however if you only have a day to spare, take an excursion to the Mekong Delta’s charming countryside.
Private tour of Mekong delta from Saigon
It’s about a two-hour drive from Saigon to the riverside city of Ben Tre, where you’ll have your first glimpse of life in Delta. Board a boat for a leisurely ride along the river. Along the banks you’ll see elegant colonial buildings, colourful markets, and countless homes built on stilts above the water.
Ben Tre is known especially for its sun-ripened coconuts. On tour, you’ll have a chance to stop by a coconut candy factory, to watch how this sticky, addictive treat is traditionally made and packaged by hand. Elsewhere, you’ll find families converting the rich clay of the Delta into bricks for new homes and buildings. Workers mould the bricks using simple machines and fire them in huge kilns set up on the river banks.
