INTRODUCTION:
My Tho is one of the provinces located on the Mekong Delta, around 90km [2 hours driving] away from Saigon. It is famous for coconuts so that people call it-the hometown of coconut. There are a lots of types of fruit trees here. So this is a place to supply fruits for other provinces in the Mekong Delta .
Full description:
Departing at 8:00 AM, from your Ho Chi Minh City hotel, heading to the Mekong Delta by minivan or bus. During the 1.5 to 2 hours drive, pass by green rice fields before arriving at the beautiful rural My Tho. Your morning trip continues from here by motorized boat on the Tien River to the Qui [Tortoise Islet].
Walk into the village, where you can visit a local fruit garden and enjoy the tropical fruit while listening to Southern Vietnamese folk music performed by islanders. Here you also can join daily activities of the local people and take in the atmosphere of this beautiful natural countryside. Visit the bee house, and take the picture of the pythons. Lunch will be served right in the heart of the orchard garden.
The boat cruise will lead you through Bao Dinh canal, entering Ben Tre province — "the land of coconuts." Here you'll see a typical agricultural model called "Garden - Pond – Cage,” before visiting the coconut candy-making shop.
Next, enjoy a rowing boat trip on the small canal, fully covered by the shadow of the water coconut’s trees. After your boat ride, take another boat ride back to the port before returning to the van. You will arrive back in Ho Chi Minh City at around 4:30 to 5:00 PM for private tour and around 6:00 to 6:30 PM for group tour.

What's special about the Mekong Delta 1 Day tour?
From reviews of ID “Elizabeth G”:
“We did the 1 day Tour of the Mekong taking in the region of Ben Tre. It was a fantastic trip that was both insightful and adventurous. Our tour guide Tung provided us with some insight into rural life on the Mekong while we traveled via motor boat, paddle boat, bicycle and tuk tuk . We enjoyed an abundance of tropical fruits and a delicious seafood lunch by the river. The food market was also an enjoyable sensory overload!”
From reviews of ID “Gallergry”:
“For it will give you a really nice insight into the daily lives of the wonderful people there, who are all so welcoming and happy to meet you. This trip is not about luxury, but about the real beauty, fantastic food, and a very well-arranged program with enough activities to get the most out of your visit without exhausting you too much.”
From reviews of ID “Glenda P”:
“Enjoyed my excursion to the Mekong Delta from beginning to end. The day included a little bit of everything including visiting a local market and a boat ride with stops at local businesses right on the delta. A tasty lunch in a beautiful tropical park-like setting, and finally a relaxing canoe ride through the serene delta waterways. [There was the option of a bike ride as well.] It was a long day but well organized. The tour was much more than I expected. Excellent customer service.”
From reviews of ID “SSStraveling”:
“My friend and I signed up for the 1 day Mekong Delta Rural tour. We ended up being the only participants on the tour and had a wonderful day.
The trip out of the city takes almost 3 hours, but the rest of the day really shows more of rural life. The included lunch was very nice and at a scenic spot next to the river.”
From reviews of ID “schip322”:
“We had the best day in the Mekong Delta with Innoviet! It was the perfect way to visit this special part of Vietnam. Our trip included a visit to the Ben Tre market with tropical fruits, a motorboat ride along the river, a visit to a coconut factory, a canoe ride, a bike ride, and then a delicious lunch along the river. It was a full day, and we covered a lot of ground but didn't feel too rushed. I want to stress that we did not see another tourist once throughout the day, and we never felt pressure to buy anything from any of the people we met. [We heard that most other tours to the Mekong Delta are very touristy and come with this expectation/pressure.]”
From reviews of ID “DP”:
“The visit to the wet market was interesting and we bought some delicious, sweet Vietnamese mangoes. A small boat took us cruising gently down one of the many tributaries of the delta. The Mekong is one of the great rivers of the world and truly something to behold.
Another highlight was the bicycle ride through the rural villages deep in the heart of the wetlands. You really get close up to see the lives of the villagers there. We saw how coconut candy was made, and how resourceful the local villagers were by literally using every part of the coconut tree to make things from brooms to oil.
Along the boat ride, we stopped over at a local homestay by the river, hosted by Mai who calls the village her hometown and runs the place. She proudly showed us her garden and we were treated to a delicious home-cooked meal of fresh tilapia, succulent prawns, and delicious chicken broth!”
These are really dedicated and enthusiastic reviews from lovely guests. All the interesting things in the Mekong Delta 1-Day Tour and highlights of the whole trip have been shown from many different perspectives.
And it will be more interesting if you can Explore the Mekong Delta through these stories in real life.

Is a day trip to Mekong Delta worth it?
Mekong Delta is beautiful… in its own way. If you're visiting Ho Chi Minh City, I recommend that you take a half day or full day visiting Mekong Delta. Here, instead of a bustling city, you will see rural Vietnam with its scenic river landscape.
How long do you need in Mekong Delta?
Mekong Delta tour 4 days: The longer you stay, the more unique beauty unfolds. Four days allow you to discover many attractions in Can Tho and ecotourism areas like Dong Tam Snake Farm, Vam Ho Bird Sanctuary, Tra Su Cajuput Forest, or Cape Ca Mau National Park.
Can I skip Mekong Delta?
Mekong Delta is definitely worth a visit and it is not only about the floating market but its beautiful tropical scenery, interesting riverine culture and friendly people.
