The Mekong Delta, known as the “Rice Bowl” of Vietnam, is a network of rivers, swamps, and islands with a slow-paced lifestyle and lush landscapes. Cruising the Delta is the best way to explore its extensive waterways and rich culture.

Cruise Options:

  • Day Trips: Short cruises that visit local floating markets like Cai Rang or Phong Dien.
  • Multi-Day Cruises: Longer itineraries that explore deeper into lesser-known areas of the Delta, offering more opportunities for cultural immersion.

Highlights of the Delta:

  • Floating Markets: Witness the bustling trade at sunrise where locals sell and barter goods directly from their boats.
  • Riverine Villages: Stop at riverside villages to see traditional candy making and rice paper production.
  • Wildlife and Nature: Opportunities to observe the rich biodiversity of the region, including rare birds and aquatic life.

Travel Tips:

  • Best Time to Visit: The dry season from December to May is ideal for cruising when water levels are manageable.
  • What to Expect: Prepare for the climate—hot and humid. Lightweight, breathable clothing is recommended.
