Chi Minh City
Three
days on the complex maze of the Mekong Delta is hardly
enough for some people, but this tour gives a taste of
life on the mighty Mekong River and its' tributaries.
You will be taken on a trip along the myriad of canals
and tributaries to get more in depth view of life in
the Delta. Gliding on the bustling waterways we enjoy
the opportunity to interact with the local people at
floating markets, eat tropical fruits in lush
orchards, look into the art of Bonsai and have tea in
a typical boathouse.
