Experienced Discovery 3days in South of VietNam
Day1 : Ho Chi Minh city tour – Cu Chi tunnel (B, L)
Day 2 : Saigon - Cai Be – Vinh Long

After breakfast at hotel, at 8:00, we depart our hotel for the Reunification Palace, the former Presidential Palace for the president of the South of Vietnam. After that, we will visit War Remnant Museum, where we can see countless artifacts, photographs and pictures documenting about the second Indochina war.
We also stop at Notre Dame Cathedral and Old Post office to get good shots for our memory of the big, modern city of Vietnam.
Our delicious lunch will be served at a nice restaurant in the central city. After lunch, we will leave Saigon for the Cu Chi tunnels, otherwise known as the "Iron Triangle" or "Iron Land". On our way there, we will drive through pleasant countryside; rubber plantations and rice paddies.
Before entering the tunnels, we will see a short introductory video showing how they were constructed, followed by an exploration of the maze of tunnels, some of which have been widened to allow tourist access. Also on display are various mantraps and the remains of an American tank as well as numerous bomb craters made by 500lb bombs dropped by B52 bombers. After that, we transfer back to Ho Chi Minh City.
Overnight in Ho Chi Minh City.
Day 2 : Saigon - Cai Be – Vinh Long Breakfast at hotel.
The Vietnamese know it as Song Lon ("Great River") or the Sông Cuu Long ("Nine Dragons River"). More universally, it is known as the Mekong. It's the world's tenth-longest river and Asia's seventh longest Its estimated length is 4,350 km (2,703 mi), and it divides into nine tributaries which meet the sea--thus the Vietnamese name "the Nine Dragons".
The Mekong is the mother to all life in the delta region, and a cruise down its slow, shimmering waterways provides a tremendous way to experience delta life. It is that our tours have been planned by a delta local, so we endeavor to put you in touch with the life the locals live as they live it
Do you have only one free day and would you like to experience rural life in the Mekong Delta region? If so, a day trip to Cai Be and its floating market presents a solid choice!
We depart at 7:30 AM and head south to the river town of Cai Be. Arriving at around 10 AM, we board our boat to journey through Cai Be’s famed floating market. Here, we will experience how life functions on the delta, as we view the intricacies of commerce--how merchants purchase produce from local farmers. As we walk through the town’s streets we will see locals hard at work making manioc chips.
During our cruise through the town’s secluded canals, we will try out local sampans and pedal down narrow natural waterways. Stopping at a local home, we will partake of seasonal fruits (such as longan, pineapple, watermelon, rambutan, papaya, jackfruit etc...) and lunch before we continue our journey down this vast stretch of the Mekong before cruising to other islands where we will walk to and visit fruit orchards.
We will then return to Cai Be by boat and will board our bus back to Saigon where we will arrive at around 5 PM.

The business of oil-drilling here means the azure horizon is marred by frequent oil tankers, and the population flecked with joy-seeking expats. The beaches here aren’t Vietnam’s best, nor is the water pristine due to pollution from oil-drilling, but Vung Tau is an easy, fast beach foray out of HCMC
Come back your hotel 17h.
