A lovely day out of the city. The canals are beautiful and the sampan ride felt like something out of a film. Lunch was plentiful.

Board a boat in My Tho and cruise along the river, passing stilt houses, fishing boats and orchards on the riverbanks. Visit a coconut candy workshop and a honey farm, taste seasonal tropical fruit and honey tea, and enjoy a traditional rowing sampan ride through narrow, palm-lined canals. A lunch of Mekong specialties is served at a local restaurant. Choose a private tour with your own car and guide, a small group of up to 12 guests, or a comfortable bus group of up to 25 — all departing from and returning to central Ho Chi Minh City.
