• Time for Traveling to the Mekong Delta Day Tour: It's a lovely region throughout the year, with an average temperature of around 29°C. During the 6-month rainy season, the rain covers the Mekong Delta, and it may rain multiple times a day, but the landscape will be more beautiful after the rain due to the tropical greenery.
• What should we do if you're there in the rainy season: Your holiday and activities will be based on the local daily life, which means the best travel time is not during the rain or too hot, but when it's cloudy, it's perfect!

It has many highlights that we shouldn't skip when you take Mekong River Delta tours. You can have some more options for that, but you'll see how we can showcase them in this itinerary:
Depart for Cai Be at 7:30 am (103 km from Ho Chi Minh City), and after about 2.5 hours, we arrive at the pier, and the boat is available with a warm welcome from our captain. We start boating on the Mekong River from the center of Cai Be town, with many appealing sites such as the wholesale fruit market, the central downtown church, and stilt-houses, which create a picturesque landscape on the bustling river.

The unique features that you can't catch on other tours are the huge fruit farms that will showcase the agricultural products, and you can enjoy the special feeling of the peaceful atmosphere with the multi-colored fruits at the people's homes, where we'll taste the garden-fresh fruits.
Along the biking routes, we have many resting stops for pictures at the pagoda, bridge, and opportunities to chat with the locals.
Local lunch will be served in the middle of Binh Hoa Phuoc village of An Binh Island in front of the Mekong Riverside, and you can take a siesta on a hammock.
Afterward, we cruise our motorized boat to the mainland to cycle past the handicraft village, where we'll experience how they make coconut candy, pop-rice, rice-wine, and rice-paper, etc. Finally, we'll ride the bike back to our car/van and return to Ho Chi Minh City before the busy traffic time at 5:30 pm.
