Your day begins with a visit to the vibrant Cái Bè floating market, where the river comes alive with boats laden with fresh produce and local goods—a true spectacle of Delta commerce.
Next, venture to Tân Phong Island for a leisurely bike ride or walk along serene village paths. Immerse yourself in the rhythm of local life, passing by lush orchards, a small school, a peaceful church, and traditional houses. Observe farmers harvesting fruit using time-honored methods and stop at local workshops to see artisans crafting rice paper for spring rolls, weaving coconut leaves into roofing, and transforming dried water hyacinth into beautiful, sustainable products like baskets, hats, and bags.
Glide deeper into the countryside aboard a rustic rowboat, drifting along narrow, shadowy canals lined with lush vegetation. Enjoy an optional lunch of regional specialties at a charming local spot like Bà Kiệt or Mười Hương.
In the afternoon, cross the mighty Mekong River to Án Bình Island. Drift along the tranquil Mương Lò handmade canal before arriving at Út Trinh Homestay, where you’ll be warmly welcomed. After settling in, join your hosts for a hands-on cooking class using fresh, local ingredients to prepare classic Mekong dishes.
The day concludes with a heartfelt homemade dinner, shared with your local hosts. Enjoy an evening of conversation and relaxation, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the Delta night.
