Two days on the complex maze of the Mekong Delta is hardly enough for some people, but this tour will give you a taste of life on the Mekong River and its tributaries. The tour starts in Ho Chi Minh City and from there we travel to Cai Be. Here we board our boat and cruise down into the heart of the Delta, viewing life as the local population does.
