After an early breakfast, you’ll be driven to the airport for the flight to Can Tho in southern Vietnam’s Mekong Delta, where you’ll board your private cruise and travel downriver to Tra On, observing the waterside scenes of daily rural life, with a stop to get ashore and see the villages and cottage industries of the area. Arriving at Vung Liem, you’ll anchor overnight, and enjoy dining and sleeping on the gentle river-flow.

After breakfast, you’ll step ashore for a cycle ride around Vung Liem, visiting a Cao Dai Temple and a local market, before returning to your vessel and enjoying lunch as you cruise to Mo Cay, where you’ll again go ashore for a walk around the village, known for its coconut produce. Continuing along the waterways, your next stop is My Long village and its rice paper making. Evening dinner is served on board as you anchor on the An Hoa River.

Later you’ll cruise to My Tho, where you’ll disembark for your transfer to Ho Chi Minh City and check-in to your hotel.

Day 9:
Today, you’ll have a thorough guided exploration of Vietnam’s southern city, imbued with the tempos of its lively modern soul, within which the romance of old Saigon still flourishes.
