• Ben Tre Province - Depart from Saigon and head straight to Ben Tre. Board a private boat to enjoy the most spectacular view and relaxing boat trip on the Mekong River. Your first stop is a local brick kiln where we’ll learn how clay bricks are made. Continuing to other villages, you’ll learn about Coconut charcoal, coconut fiber processing, coconut candy workshop and savour freshly picked fruits from a local orchard gardern.

You’ll spend more time meandering down the river and cruising a long beautiful creek covered with shady Coconut, Nipa palms then stop to visit local mat-weaving village to learn more about the local sleeping mats, traditional lifestyles, culture, and customs before hopping on a xe-lôi (motorized rickshaw) or bicycle ride to reach a nice riverside restaurant for a delicious lunch with local delicacies.

After lunch, you’ll experience the rowing boat trip along the picturesque canals. Come back to the car and continue to visit Ben Tre Local Market before heading back to Saigon.
