Meet your guide in the lobby of your Ho Chi Minh City accommodations to start the tour. Head out to visit the colorful floating market of Cai Be, filled with fruits and vegetables on a rowing boat. An optional stop can be made at the local workshops where you will see how rice paste, coconut candy, poprice, and popcorn are all made. Afterwards, a delicious traditional lunch will be served at a 170 year old home. Alternatively, you may delight in your meal under the shade of local orchards on An Binh Island.
After lunch, the boat will take you deeper into the countryside on smaller canals. See the local farmers and observe the way they catch fish and pluck fruit from the stem. Make your final stop at the nursery garden to learn how to raise high quality fruit trees. Enjoy fruits from the guide's garden and homemade rice wine as you listen to traditional music. The cruise will end around 3:30pm at Vinh Long Town before you begin your journey back to Saigon.
