Mekong Delta Tours & Trips
Ever considered a journey through Vietnam's Mekong Delta, a place where life unfolds on the water? Picture this: floating markets stirring to life before sunrise, navigating slender canals that snake through orchards, and visiting villages that are only reachable by boat. The Delta's completely different from northern Vietnam - it's lush, tropical, slower-paced. You'll stay with local families, taste tropical fruits and experience Vietnamese life that revolves entirely around these waterways.

We really enjoyed our tour with Alan! She was very knowledgeable and entertaining at the same time. She dealt with the group size and busyness of the Cu Chi tunnels very well ensuring we had time to see everything. The coach was also comfy and air conditioned. Would recommend.

How long should I plan to spend exploring the Mekong Delta?
A stay of 2-4 days provides enough time to see the essential sights of this water-rich region. Three days strikes the right balance allowing visits to My Tho Ben Tre Can Tho and Chau Doc at a comfortable pace. As one TourRadar traveler mentioned "The 3-day tour gave us the perfect amount of time to see both the bustling markets and peaceful countryside while staying at lovely hotels like the Victoria Chau Doc."
What types of accommodation can I expect in the Mekong Delta region?
From upscale properties like the Victoria Can Tho Resort to family-run homestays in Cai Be and Ben Tre the Delta offers varied sleeping options. Most tours blend different accommodation styles bringing travelers closer to local life. Guests might find themselves at the modern Chau Pho Hotel one night and in a traditional home the next. As one TourRadar traveler shared: "The homestay experience was genuinely warm and we felt very welcomed by Mr. Tang and his wife. Dinner was a delight!"
When is the best time to visit the Mekong Delta region?
December through April marks the dry season when clear skies and mild temperatures create ideal conditions for exploring. This weather makes it easy to visit the busy Cai Rang Floating Market or walk through Ben Tre's coconut farms. As one TourRadar traveler noted "The weather was perfect for exploring the waterways and local villages." The centrally located Harmony Saigon Hotel in District 1 serves as a convenient starting point during these months.
How do I get around the Mekong Delta region?
Getting around involves a mix of modern and traditional transport. Air-conditioned buses connect major towns like Can Tho and Chau Doc while wooden sampan boats navigate narrow waterways. Larger vessels handle river crossings and floating market visits. The trip from Ho Chi Minh City to Can Tho takes about 4 hours by car. A TourRadar traveler commented: "The mix of transport made the journey exciting - from modern buses to traditional wooden boats."
Is it possible to combine a Mekong Delta tour with other Vietnam destinations?
The Delta's location makes it easy to pair with visits to Ho Chi Minh City Phu Quoc Island or Cambodia. As a TourRadar traveler recommended: "We did a perfect combination starting from Saigon exploring the Delta while staying at the Holiday 2 Hotel Can Tho then continuing to Phnom Penh. The connections were seamless and gave us a great overview of the region."
What are the must-see highlights of a Mekong Delta tour?
The lively Cai Rang Floating Market in Can Tho stands out along with Ben Tre's coconut candy workshops craft villages and river excursions.
