North & South Island Tour

Vietnam's largest island makes the perfect setting for a day of sightseeing among the beaches, wilderness, and wineries that fill the landscape of Phu Quoc. Head from the waterfront fishing village of Ham Ninh to the jungles of Phu Quoc National Park and get a great look at a land full of nature. You will be picked up right at your hotel in the morning, proceed with the tour following the organization of a resourceful guide, then return to where you stay within a day. After your guide picks you from your hotel, you get a look at the oyster harvest on your way inland. Stop to visit the Sim Winery, where you can get to know some of the island's unique wines. Sim (Rose Myrtle) Winery, is an interesting place not for only wine lovers alone. As being said, this type of wine has natural healing properties that help with fatigue, aide digestion and reduce join pain, of which the recipe originated from various ethnic minority groups living in the center highlands. This special wine can be given as the unusual souvenir and is best used with the seafoods. Next, you're shown to the notorious Coconut Prison Camp, which dates back to the Vietnam War. Coconut Prison, another must-watch site in An Thoi, is historically the concentration camp since the French domination in 50s to the “Hell on earth” often-referred prison during the American war in 70s. One might be scared of recalling a long deadly period, by its nature, but letting the painful past gone, this is where you can truly witness the history of Vietnam. Lunch will be served in local restaurant.
After lunch, you can relax on one of the island's pristine beaches and enjoy the tranquil surroundings ahead of your visit to the village of Ham Ninh, famous for its fresh seafood and shallow waters filled with fishermen. Ham Ninh Fishing Village is an ideal locale for foreign visitors looking to experience the daily life of local fishermen as well as authentic regional dishes at affordable prices. Widely known as one of the oldest villages on Phu Quoc Island, its residents’ main sources of income include diving for pearls and sea cucumbers, fishing and, in recent years, selling handmade souvenirs and seafood delicacies to tourists. Not far away, a hidden trail leads to the Tranh stream, which runs through a series of scenic little waterfalls. Tranh Stream is a terrific spot that tourists who once have chance to drop by Duong Dong town should not miss out. The 15km long stream which originates from Ham Ninh Mountain flows through diverse terrain in the forests to create beautiful waterfalls. White waterfalls flowing down in the greenery of the forest certainly draw a picturesque scene in front of the tourists’ very eyes. Perhaps, the name Tranh (picture) stems from the spectacular gorgeousness of the stream and surrounding scenery. It's then time to head to the north side of the island, where your guide shows you the tranquil setting of Ganh Dau Cape. Here is a bow beach running over 500 meters long, shielded by two mountains. Standing on Ganh Dau, you can see Ta Lon mountain of Cambodia. Then relax and go for a swim before you strike out into Phu Quoc National Park for a look at the century-old trees and the dugongs at home in the wilderness. Phu Quoc National Park comprises more than half of Phu Quoc Island’s northern region, where adventurous travellers can enjoy a range of outdoor pursuits throughout their tropical vacation. Declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in 2010, this massive natural attraction spans over 314, 000 square metres of unique flora and fauna, evergreen forest, and dense mountain ranges. Nature lovers can also spot rare wildlife such as long-tailed macaques, silver langurs, slow lories, otters, and hornbills. After enjoying sightseeing and hiking across the nation park, you will get to visit the temple dedicated to Nguyen Trung Truc, a local fisherman, also the Vietnamese hero. Nguyen Trung Truc Temple is the largest temple in the temples worshiping him in Kien Giang province. Unique architectural features along with trophies, memorabilia and illustrious victories turn the temple into one of attractive attractions in Phu Quoc. The temple is located opposite the tranquil river, near the water front and shaded by the cool green Bodhi trees. Despite his own short life, Nguyen Trung Truc has turned into the dazzling history of the nation's history as well as Vietnamese legend. Discovering this temple is definitely one of the most unforgettable things to do in Phu Quoc. For the time being, we will make a last stop at the Bee Farm to see where organic honey gets made, before heading back to your hotel. Bee Farm, considered as an eco-tourism destination, is confined to the self-contained component of producing-trading-and educating that opens for visiting independently. Out of sightseeing, you may learn about honeybee conversation, life-cycle and the ecological importance of bees in a up close and personal manner. After the tour, we will return you to your hotel in Phu Quoc.
