Embark on a sampan and witness the vibrant trading activities of Cairang Floating Market, the largest floating market in Vietnam. Goods exchanged include fresh fruits and vegetables, such as pineapples and mangos. Experience a unique breakfast, ordering from floating restaurants and cafes which offer delicious noodle soup and strong Vietnamese coffee—a perfect combination to start your day.
We will then cruise into the jungle through small, yet complex canal systems, which provide a serene home to diverse flora and fauna. Allow yourself time to relax and meditate on this tranquil part of the trip.
Next on our trip is a visit to an organic cocoa farm. The owner’s father brought the plants back from a trip to Malaysia in 1960, introducing an extremely different crop to the region. All handmade and processed, these chocolate goods are a labour of love for this family.We will also explore a four-decade old noodle village and participate in the making of rice noodles the traditional way.

Our experience at the floating market in Can Tho was truly unforgettable, thanks to Clara! Her deep passion for Vietnam and her local roots in the region made all the difference. Instead of a standard tourist route, she took us off the beaten path to a quieter, more authentic part of the Mekong Delta. She even arranged a special visit with a boat owner, giving us a rare glimpse into the daily life of the local traders. Her warmth, knowledge, and connections turned this experience into something truly special. If you want to see the heart of the floating markets beyond the tourist crowds, Clara is the guide to go with!

We had a great time in this tour. It was lovely to visit local families producing rice noodles and cacao farms.

Mariah was extremely knowledgeable and always knew the best spots for a photo. The breakfast was excellent and the boat ride was fantastic. I had also booked the return trip improperly and she was very kind to help us figure out our return to HCMC. She really went above and beyond.
