Mekong Delta Family days

HCMC to Cai Be (100km): 2 hours
This morning, leave bustling Ho Chi Minh for the 2 hour drive to Cai Be. The brilliant colors and bustling markets of the Mekong Delta will delight kids and adults.
Arrive in Cai Be at noon, then board the Bassac. A welcome drink will be given on arrival followed by an introduction to the ship and crew. Depart towards Cho Lach on the Tien Giang River and enjoy lunch on the upper deck while en route. Rest on the deck while the ship branches into the Cho Lach Canal for 30 minutes through the traffic of sand and rice barges, fruit drying facilities and around wooden ship building yards.
Visit a village on the banks of river Mang Thít, and appreciate the way of life in the Delta, visit the orchard or rice fields nearby.
Back on board the Bassac, a complimentary drink will be served, sit back and enjoy the sunset overlooking the Mekong’s magical waterways.
Dinner will be served whilst the Bassac cruises the Mang Thit River towards the Bassac’s anchorage for the night, downstream from the little market of Tra On. 
Overnight aboard the Bassac Boat. 

A delicious breakfast will be served whilst the boat cruises past Tra On towards Can Tho. Upon arrival in Can Tho, check out of the cabin and transfer onto a smaller local boat to visit the Cai Rang floating market,
Cruise through the floating market with wholesalers on big boats. Here, during the early morning market hours, larger sized boats anchor and create lanes that smaller boats weave in and out of.
The main items sold here are fruit and vegetables and every boat has a long upright pole at its bow from which samples of the goods for sale are hung. The waterway becomes a maze of boats packed with produce depending on the season - mango, bananas, papaya, pineapple, and even floating pho vendors.
Return to land and have lunch in Can Tho.
This afternoon, spend time cycling around the quiet lanes and dirt paths of Can Tho. Biking is the perfect way to discover the countryside with the family. The roads are flat and the sites are amazing: cottage industries, small farms harvesting or planting rice, hidden temples and lots of friendly locals
Then, transfer to hotel in Can Tho. This cozy modern hotel is a comfortable place to stay after a long day. Overnight in Can Tho.

Can Tho to Ho Chi Minh City (180km): 4 hours
After breakfast, spend the morning at leisure to further explore Can Tho independently, or to relax and enjoy the swimming pool and facilities at the charming riverfront resort.
Early afternoon, it’s time to drive back to Ho Chi Minh City. The journey takes around 4-hours.
Upon arriving at Ho Chi Minh City, be transferred to the airport for the onward flight or to a hotel in the city. (Accommodation tonight is not included – at own arrangements).
