Upon arrival, pick up then transfer to the hotel for check in. Free at leisure.

Depart to Cu Chi Tunnels which are a maze of underground passages used by the Vietnamese communists during the Vietnam War as protection against the American air raids. After lunch, visit the War Remnants museum–it exhibited the old military equipment from the Vietnam War. Continue to visit the Reunification palace, formerly the Presidential palace that was the sight of South Vietnam’s surrender in April 1975. Walk down to see the Notre Dame Cathedral then finish at the General Post Office.

Transfer to Mekong Delta then take a boat trip to discover Caibe floating market. Visit a village to watch the process of making local products, observe daily activities, enjoy traditional music then take a small sampan rowing by hand of a local to feel the real Mekong river. After lunch, take another boat to Vinh Long, the center of tropical fruits, then transfer to the hotel in Can Tho.

Wake up early to visit the famous Cairang floating market by a boat trip. Continue the boat ride to visit the Mekong Delta’s famous fruit orchards and sample the fresh, exotic fruit. Then explore deeper into the countryside, passing traditional houses made of wood and palm leaves as you observe the activities of the local people. After lunch, drive back to your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City.

Depending on your departure time, you will have some free time to relax or further explore the city on your own before a transfer to the airport for your departure flight.
