Mekong Delta Journey – 4 Days / 3 Nights

Mekong Delta Journey – 4 Days / 3 Nights

Welcome to the Mekong Delta , Vietnam’s timeless water world where rivers are roads, boats are homes, and life flows to the gentle pulse of the tide.

This four-day journey is an invitation to slow down and reconnect to trade skyscrapers for coconut groves, and city lights for lantern lit canals. Drift through floating markets at sunrise, cycle shaded paths past rice paddies, and fall asleep to the rhythm of river currents aboard a cozy wooden boat.

A perfect retreat for families, expats, and travelers seeking connection over convenience where each encounter reveals a story, and every meal tastes like home.

🌟 Trip Highlights

  • Cruise the heart of the Delta — glide through palm-fringed waterways and bustling floating markets where trading still happens boat-to-boat.
  • Overnight aboard a riverboat — watch the sun sink into the water and wake to the sound of roosters calling across the misty canals.
  • Cycle the countryside of Can Tho — pedal along small village trails and greet locals tending to orchards, rice fields, and coconut groves.
  • Taste the Mekong’s bounty — fresh tropical fruits, rice wine, and meals cooked from the heart in ancient river homes.
  • Discover life beyond the surface — meet craftsmen, visit family-run workshops, and witness a slower, simpler way of living.

✨ Detailed Itinerary
DAY 1: HO CHI MINH CITY – ARRIVAL | [No Meals]

Welcome to Vietnam! Upon arrival, your guide and driver will greet you and escort you to your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City.
This afternoon is free for you to unwind or explore.

Want to dive straight into the city’s flavor? Optional activities can be arranged from street food tours and cooking classes to museum visits or a leisurely sunset drink on Saigon River (on your own expenses).

Overnight in Ho Chi Minh City.

DAY 2: HO CHI MINH CITY – CAI BE - OVERNIGHT CRUISE   [B|L|D]

Leave the city’s energy behind and travel two hours south to Cai Be, gateway to the Mekong Delta.
Here, your river adventure begins.

Step aboard the Bassac, a charming wooden riverboat that blends old-world character with modern comfort. A welcome drink awaits as the crew sets sail toward Cho Lach on the Tien Giang River.

Lunch is served on the open deck as the boat glides past floating workshops, sand barges, and shipyards, revealing daily life along the Delta’s arteries.

Later, hop ashore to visit a riverside village meet farmers, wander through orchards, and learn how simple rhythms of planting and harvesting still define the Mekong way of life.

As twilight settles, enjoy a cocktail on deck while the sun dips below the palm horizon. Dinner is served under a sky freckled with stars, and the Bassac anchors for the night near Tra On, rocking gently to the music of the water.

Overnight aboard the Bassac.

DAY 3: CAI RANG FLOATING MARKET - CAN THO [B|L]

Awaken to the smell of coffee and the sound of river life stirring. Breakfast is served as you drift toward Can Tho, the Delta’s bustling capital.

Disembark and board a small wooden sampan to explore the Cai Rang Floating Market one of Southeast Asia’s most iconic markets on water.
Here, mangoes, pineapples, and melons pile high on boats, vendors shout their prices with laughter, and even bowls of hot pho are served from floating kitchens.

After this lively glimpse into river trade, return to dry land for lunch in Can Tho, then swap your boat for a bicycle.

Pedal along peaceful backroads shaded by coconut palms and banana trees. Stop to meet friendly villagers, peek into cottage workshops, and watch farmers harvest rice by hand.

Every turn brings a smile, a wave, a snapshot of life unfiltered.

Overnight in Can Tho.

DAY 4: CAN THO – HO CHI MINH CITY – DEPARTURE [B]

HCMC to Can Tho (180km): 4 hours

After breakfast, enjoy a slow morning at your resort, swim, sip coffee by the river, or stroll through Can Tho’s morning market for souvenirs and smiles independently.

By early afternoon, your private car will take you back to Ho Chi Minh City, a scenic 4-hour drive.

Arrive by evening with memories as colorful as the markets and the soft hum of the Mekong still echoing in your heart.
