What To Expect
Avoiding the freeway, we drive to Ben Tre using quiet shortcuts. On the way we stop at the Cu Chi tunnels, an impressive tunnel network that was used by the Vietcong during the Vietnam War, to outwit the American soldiers. In My Tho we visit an incense factory and the impressive Vĩnh Tràng temple complex. In Ben Tre we cook and eat together with the host family at the homestay.
► Day 02: Ben Tre to Can Tho (130 KM)
After breakfast we explore Ben Tre by bicycle, so you can see how the locals work and live. You can learn how to make a coconut mat, cut your own coconut candy or taste one of the many Mekong fruits. By fishing boat we take a trip on one of the many canals of the Mekong river. Afterwards we take the motorbikes and ride along the river bank to Can Tho. In Can Tho you have some time for yourself. Have a traditional Vietnamese slow coffee or take a walk along the boulevard while watching the sun sink into the water. In the evening we eat ‘hot pot’ together, the Vietnamese version of fondue.
► Day 03: Can Tho to Ho Chi Minh City (170 KM)
Early in the morning we visit the floating market of Cai Rang, the largest floating market in South Vietnam, and a rice noodle factory. Afterwards we have breakfast at the hotel and get ready for the drive back to Ho Chi Minh City. Along the way we stop at a fruit farm and the Dong Tam Snake Farm, where various kinds of poisonous snakes are being examined and taken care of. Real daredevils can even have their picture taken with a life-size python around their neck…
