Bassac Boat cruise on the Mekong
Bassac Boat cruise on the Mekong
A beautifully crafted wooden boat, the R/V Bassac offers comfortable twin cabins with en suite bathrooms, a sun deck and a superb restaurant with bar.
Experience Vietnam like the locals do: by bicycle. First drive to Cai Son where you pick up your bike and enjoy a ride through the more rural parts of Can Tho.
Riding mostly down narrow lanes along the river and away from the bustle of daily traffic, you experience real Vietnamese rural life, still unspoilt by modern day living — people working in the river, friendly waving children.
Late afternoon enjoy a cruise on small canals with a cold refreshment on board while admiring the crepuscule on the river.
End the tour by releasing a lantern on the river blessed with your wishes. The total duration of this tour is about two and a half hours.
These activities are designed to give you the most authentic experiences around where you're staying. We work with local guides, who use their knowledge and often a resident's eye to show you the main sights and more out-of-the-way attractions. Our specialists can suggest tours and activities that will introduce you to the local ways of life.
