Among them, South Vietnam "Ho Chi Minh City" is the first stop for many young people, except for the red coffee apartments, pink churches, post offices, Ben Thanh Market, War Remnants Museum. Wait, but do you think that South Vietnam only has these? This is to introduce the ONE DAY TOUR "Mekong River Day Tour" which is currently popular among self-service travelers.

About Mekong River

For this trip, we will book online before departure. If you want to know the detailed itinerary & reservation method, please click me. When you come to Vietnam, you don't need to deal with it or contact. The other day is to concentrate on running our existing itinerary. The gathering time appeared at the entrance of the hotel with a special person to pick up and drop off, and then the whole day's itinerary was also arranged. It is probably the most relaxing and memorable day for our whole trip to Vietnam. Next is our one-day experience:

 

#Point1 Hotel pick up

Many One Day Tour are going to a specific collection, but this trip is not required (cheer). As long as you are booking your itinerary, in addition to providing personal information, remember to provide the name and address of the hotel you stayed in the previous night to the customer service staff. Because as long as it is in the first county of the city center, the hotel can be free to pick up and drop off, and the entire tour is accompanied by an English guide! (Suburban hotels still have to go to designated locations to gather).

 

#Point2 Take a boat ride on the Mekong River

After arriving at the destination, we changed to take a boat and cross the tributary of the Mekong River to see the life of the local floating people. Along the way, there will be four famous islands, namely "Unicorn Island", "Turtle Island", "Phoenix Island" and "Dragon Island".

 

Sitting on a traditional boat and swimming in the coconut river of the Mekong River, it is really like accidentally entering a movie scene, so the experience experienced by you is really not felt in the museums or any travel books in the city!

 

#Point3 Enjoy the Vietnamese lunch

After the river, I went to lunch time. The lunch of this day is also included in the itinerary! Although it is included in the itinerary, the dishes are not sloppy. It is a very popular dish in the local area designed especially for travelers who are far away from Vietnam.

 

Among them are local dishes such as "Fried Fish", "Vietnamese Spring Roll" and "Dinosaur Eggs" that you have never eaten outside, because eating and being good is also an important part of your trip.

 

#Point4 Enjoy local music performances

Then after the lunch, do you think the trip is over? I was just about to start the small event in the afternoon, because everyone went to the Mekong River, and arranged a small activity in the latter part of the trip, such as "close contact with the python", "appreciating the local folk performances in Vietnam", "The production of coconut sugar and the "small taste of the local fruit" are hard to experience in the urban area. I have completed many to do list in Vietnam!

 

#Point5 Visit the 19th century stupa

At the end of the experience, I was full, and the whole day’s itinerary was almost over, but on the return trip, I passed a 19th-century Buddhist temple, which is a very famous attraction in the area, so I planned it very carefully. Some time is here, so that everyone can walk down and take a look at this historic monument.

 

OrangeCatTravel's experience

This trip to the Mekong River is a 9-hour journey, including a total of 9-10 hours. It is recommended that if you want to participate, you must have at least one full day before the departure, so that you will not be chased by the itinerary. It’s not fun to run. In addition, it doesn't matter if the peers don't want to participate, because one person can do it!
