What it is

Escape Ho Chi Minh City for a full-day journey into the Mekong Delta, cruising the Tien River past the four legendary islands, riding a hand-rowed sampan through palm-lined canals, and tasting warm coconut candy straight from a family workshop. Lunch in a riverside orchard, honey-bee farm visits, and live traditional music round out one of southern Vietnam's most iconic day trips.

Highlights

Fresh tropical fruit platter and seasonal orchard, accompanied by live Vietnamese folk music performance

Wear light, breathable clothing and bring sunscreen — river humidity and midday sun can be intense
Canal paths and boat embarkation points may involve uneven surfaces; flat, closed-toe shoes are recommended over sandals
Departure is generally around 7:30–8:00 AM with return to the city by 5:00–6:00 PM
Vegetarian meal options are usually available on request at the time of booking

Frequently asked

What is Unicorn Island (Thoi Son) and why is it on the itinerary?: Thoi Son — nicknamed Unicorn Island — is the largest of the four 'Holy Animal' islets on the Tien River near My Tho.

Is lunch included, and are there vegetarian options?: Lunch at a riverside garden restaurant in the delta is typically included in the tour price. Most operators can accommodate vegetarian or dietary preferences if notified at booking.
How far is My Tho from Ho Chi Minh City, and is transport provided?: My Tho is roughly 70 km southwest of Ho Chi Minh City — about 1.5 to 2 hours by road. Round-trip hotel pickup and drop-off in central Ho Chi Minh City is generally included.
