Mekong Delta Tour Blends River Cruising, Culture, and Hands-On Culinary Experience


A guided tour through Vietnam’s Mekong Delta is offering visitors an immersive journey that combines cultural heritage, river exploration, and traditional cuisine. The experience begins at Vinh Trang Pagoda, a century-old temple known for its ornate architecture and peaceful atmosphere.


From there, travellers embark on a scenic cruise along the Mekong River between My Tho and Ben Tre, where lush landscapes and daily river life unfold along the waterways. The journey highlights the region’s natural beauty and its deep connection to water-based living.


A key highlight includes a traditional rowing boat ride through narrow canals lined with water coconut groves. This quieter section of the tour offers a more intimate view of the delta’s ecosystem, allowing visitors to experience its tranquil rural charm.


The itinerary also features tastings of honey, tropical fruits, and coconut candy, along with a five-course Southern Vietnamese meal. Guests are invited to participate in making Banh Xeo, a traditional Vietnamese pancake, before continuing the journey with additional boat rides that further showcase the region’s unique river culture.

Very little left of what we were told is the last floating market - now it is only wholesale and most business with tourist boats is for food and drink; this is very limited too (mid November 2025). The area of boats stretches about 200 metres when it used to be over 1 kilometre. Could I recommend a visit? For socioeconomic reasons you should go - just to see it's decline and the move to land living, for entertainment you should not. Tours are informative but the use of the waterways as a place to dispose of garbage and assumed bathroom waste from the houses is a reflection of the demographics of this and many regions of Vietnam. What never ceases to amaze and uplift me is the positive cheerful and welcoming attitude of the Vietnamese people. I would come again to Vietnam just for the people.

The floating market was not so special. It was very organized and made only for tourists. The real river markets are probably only deeper inside the country. But the breakfast — Pho soup on the river — was very good. The taste was even better because of the nice atmosphere. Price 2 USD, for the soup.

The photos they post on google and on their adverts are very outdated, so this is like “expectation” vs “reality” We went to the Cai Rang Floating Market to experience their so call “vibrant floating market” hoping we would see the same things as what we saw on google and on the tours advertisements. We took the private boat tour and even went there very early because they said that the market starts at 6am, and it’s better to come early because that is when the floating market are busier but i’ll let you be the judge, I have attached some photos for your reference. Nevertheless, the experience is still cool up to an extent Our tour includes a visit to the Cacao farm (but they ask for entrance fee at the farm whether you are in a tour or just walk-in) And a two more places along the Mekong Delta but it will always depend on your agreement with the tour agents
