Overview
Are you looking for an authentic tour to experience life along the Mekong River? The Mekong flows through six countries: Tibet, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. In Vietnam, this region is called Cửu Long, or “Nine Dragons,” referring to the river’s nine branches.
Life in the Mekong Delta is centered around its waterways, where traditional stilt houses, diverse religious practices, and floating markets stretch across river mouths and canals, blending naturally with local landscapes and communities.
Meanwhile, Kimmy’s Chocolatier produces some of Southern Vietnam’s finest handcrafted chocolate in Tiền Giang, using locally sourced cocoa, offering visitors a truly unique and memorable experience.
Tour Itinerary:
- Guests will experience the local agricultural lifestyle both on land and on water.
- Paddle along a peaceful canal on a traditional boat.
- Sample chocolates made at a local factory, gaining insight into how people in the Mekong River region produce their artisanal treats.
- Enjoy a delicious lunch prepared with fresh, locally sourced organic ingredients.
- The most exciting part of the trip includes a cooking class, kayaking on the river, and cycling around the village.
