Night On The Mekong River With Sampan Cruise

Meet us at Victoria Can Tho Resort at 12:00 for lunch at Spices Restaurant. After lunch, the crew welcomes you on board the Song Xanh sampan with chilled towels and a refreshing drink as the boat begins its leisurely cruise on the river.

Observe the endless boat traffic and the quiet but constant activity along the banks. Head ashore at Cai Von Town and stroll through an outdoor market as vendors trade in farming tools, fish traps, Chinese medicine, and fresh produce. Return to the sampan and visit a nearby village where seedlings are grown in a scenic nursery.

Continue cruising on the narrow Tra On River, taking in the riverscapes of mangroves, coconut trees, and stilt houses. Towards sunset, join the larger Hau River, passing green islets as the sun sets on this branch of the Mekong River.

Enjoy dinner on board as the sampan moors on the river for the evening.

Meals included: Lunch & Dinner

At about 6:30 am, set off early to arrive at the famous Cai Rang Floating Market at its peak. Breakfast is served on board while the Song Xanh navigates among dozens of local barges laden with rice and other products from the Delta.

Continue cruising towards Victoria Can Tho and disembark at the hotel’s private jetty.
