Floating market – a creative way of trading that Mekong Delta people have been originating to cope with the dense network of rivers in this region. For centuries, the main vehicle for transportation here was boat, and the floating market was born to serve the high demand for goods exchange. Gradually, it becomes the signature image of the South West’s people and landscape.

I had an amazing guided tour in Can Tho, visiting the Cai Rang floating market, a local cacao farm, and a beautiful fruit garden. Each stop was unique and full of charm. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and spoke excellent English, making the entire experience smooth, informative, and enjoyable.

Had a great tour of An. On the floating market she took us to the older vendors to give them extra support. The food was great and fresh. She showed us an authentic and unique piece of Can Tho; the floating market, a cocoa farm, tropical fruit farm, noodle workshop and a real houseboat. She gave a lot of explanations that showed that she has a deep knowledge about the environment and the people. It was a pleasure to follow a tour with her and we recommend it to everyone!

· Coffee at floating market, visit home ・Handmade noodle making ・Cocoa farmers ・Fruit farm We visited four places. It was a very enriching feeling to see how everything was made by hand and how everyone looked at each other with a smile. Our guide, Eu, is very kind and I thought he might be more hospitable than the Japanese. As soon as I was eating something, he prepared a towel for me, and when I told him I was full, he set me up to walk longer on the farm. This time it was my mother and I, but next time I would like to join the same tour with my family of four.
Wonderful
