Overview

First, we will take a boat to visit a huge floating fish farm owned by a local family. There, we can understand how the locals make a living from the river's natural resources, while also stimulating your senses with a unique fish foot massage Then we walk along with villagers to discover the lives of local people living on a green islet in the middle of the Mekong River. Their income is based on feeding fishes and cultivating a variety of fruits. A trip to the Mekong River would not be complete without a visit to a tropical fruit garden in which we will learn how locals tend to these gardens and of course enjoy some of our pickings! Finally, a local host family will prepare a cozy dinner with a hotpot soup made with local fishes, vegetables and herbs. As the sun paints the sky with hues of amber, indulge in this culinary delight while soaking in the picturesque vista, an unforgettable moment harmonizing with the rich cultural tapestry of the Mekong Delta.

Excellent experience

Published on Jan, 2025

This was our second tour with Mekong Realism (the first being Largest Floating Market, Wild Canal System And Organic Chocolate tour) and I have nothing but lavish praise for the company, our guide, David, and the tour itself. It was interesting, varied and well-organized. I'm surprised this tour has so few reviews; it should be much more widely known.

The best experience in Vietnam

Published on Feb, 2024

The most beautiful thing done during our travel in Vietnam! It was very well organized and authentic. Our guide (Trena) was so funny, friendly, full of energy and humour that made our expercience unforgettable. We highly recommend it to discover a bit of the real life in the countryside of Mekong river.

From the very beginning of the tour, you can instantly feel the positive energy Nga exudes. She’s a knowledgeable guide and a fantastic storyteller, transforming every stop and the journey between them into captivating history lessons. What I truly appreciated was her ability to showcase the authentic life of local people, taking us to places untouched by mainstream tourism. I wholeheartedly recommend this day trip and would gladly join it again in a heartbeat!
