Explorer along Mekong Delta of Vietnam to Cambodia
Flexible Itinerary
Welcome to Vietnam! As you touch down at Tan Son Nhat International Airport, the beginning of your adventure unfolds. At the baggage claim, a friendly guide from Asia Tour Advisor will be there to greet you. Keep an eye out for the sign adorned with our logo and your name. We're here not only to transport you to your hotel with comfort but also to provide a captivating introduction to the dynamic city of Ho Chi Minh.
Your Journey Begins: The remainder of the day is entirely yours to immerse yourself, unwind, and explore the enchanting surroundings.
Vibrant Saigon: Saigon, known as Ho Chi Minh City, is a bustling metropolis that never sleeps. It offers a multitude of culinary delights and a lively nightlife to cater to all tastes. From street food vendors offering mouthwatering local dishes to the iconic rooftop bar at the Rex Hotel, where international correspondents reported on the Vietnam War during the "Five O’clock Follies." No matter your interests, our guides are here to provide personalized recommendations.
Good Morning! Your day begins with a morning pick-up as we embark on a journey to the Cu Chi Tunnels. These tunnels are a significant part of the Vietnam-American War and promise a captivating day trip. Explore the mysterious tunnels, discover hidden doors, and the once-deadly traps.
Afternoon Exploration: After a satisfying lunch, the choice is yours. Visit either the War Remnants Museum or the Presidential Palace based on your preferences. As the sun sets, take a leisurely stroll through the city's colonial streets. Discover the Old Saigon Post Office, Dong Khoi Street, Continental Hotel, Opera House, and City Hall.
Breakfast at Your Hotel: Begin your day with breakfast at your hotel, as you prepare for an excursion into the heart of the Mekong Delta. Your guide will be there to greet you, and you'll set out for My Tho, located in the lush and green rice fields.
Exploring the Mekong River: As your adventure commences, visit the Vinh Trang Pagoda and embark on a hand-rowed sampan boat adventure along the mighty Mekong River. Glide under the shade of coconut trees along the river's natural canals, passing by wooden stilt houses, aromatic fruit plantations, and traditional fishing villages lining the banks. Stop for lunch in an orchard garden on Tortoise Islet and continue down the river to An Khang. For those who wish, a short bicycle tour is available, offering the chance to enjoy seasonal fruit, honey, and tea while serenaded by the melodious tunes of southern Vietnamese folk music performed by local musicians. In one of the small river villages, savor delicious, hand-made coconut candies while immersing yourself in the idyllic rural lifestyle. In the evening, you'll head to Can Tho, ensuring your comfortable stay at your hotel and granting you time to explore the bustling Can Tho Market.
Discover the Lower Mekong: Begin your day with a leisurely boat trip, allowing you to explore the picturesque tributaries of the Lower Mekong River, particularly the Bassac River. Your journey will take you to Cai Rang floating markets, known for their lively and vibrant atmosphere.
Savor Vietnamese Vermicelli Soup: Have you ever tasted Vietnamese vermicelli soup? This is your opportunity to witness its creation and savor a delightful meal. Explore a charming village, meet the welcoming local people, and even experience crossing a "Monkey bridge," ingeniously constructed from a single bamboo stem. Your journey also includes a visit to an orchard garden and a relaxing lunch.
Visit the Crocodile Farm: As your adventure unfolds, proceed to Chau Doc via Long Xuyen to visit a crocodile farm. After arriving in Chau Doc, enjoy the stunning landscape from the summit of Sam Mountain, affording breathtaking views along the Vietnamese-Cambodian border. Visit the Caved Pagoda, a unique experience. Your overnight stay is in Chau Doc.
Breakfast at Your Hotel: Begin your day with breakfast at your hotel. In the morning, embark on a speed boat journey lasting approximately 4.5 hours, which will take you to Phnom Penh. On arrival at the Cambodian border, you can obtain your visa on arrival (USD 20 each, along with one 3x4cm photo). Your local Cambodian guide will meet you at Phnom Penh's boat pier, arranging your transfer to your hotel. Enjoy some free time to relax or explore the renowned Russian Market.
Exploring the Capital: Begin your day with a city tour of Phnom Penh. Despite its tumultuous history, the capital city of Phnom Penh still exudes considerable charm. Visit the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum and the National Museum, dedicated exclusively to Khmer art and sculpture. The majority of exhibits date from the Angkor period (9th to 15th century), with some dating as far back as the 4th century. While the Royal Palace's private quarters remain off-limits, the palace's public areas offer a glimpse of the royal family's life. Explore the Silver Pagoda, the country's most sacred temple.
Journey to Siem Reap: Transfer to the airport for a flight to Siem Reap. Upon arrival, we'll pick you up and ensure your comfortable stay at your hotel. The rest of the day is yours to explore or simply relax.
Early Morning Exploration: Begin your day with a visit to the enchanting Ta Prohm, a temple that has nearly been consumed by the jungle, creating an eerily haunting and exotic scene. The temple's colossal tree roots, embracing the massive stone blocks, evoke a sensation that may remain with you forever. Continue to the intricately carved Khmer ruins at Angkor Wat, one of the world's most awe-inspiring remnants. The temple features fine Apsara carvings in Angkorian era art.
Discovering Angkor Thom: Explore the mysterious Royal city of Angkor Thom, renowned for its 54-tower temple, Bayon. At first glance, it may appear as a shapeless mass of stone, but upon closer examination, numerous faces emerge, gazing out from a distant and primitive time.
Explore Preah Khan: Further your exploration by visiting the Preah Khan temple, built in the 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. It exhibits the same architectural style as Ta Prohm Temple.
Morning Freedom: Enjoy the morning at your leisure, free to explore, shop, or simply relax in the vibrant city.
Homeward Bound: In due time, your private car will arrive to transport you to the airport for your next adventure.
