Hô Chi Minh Ben Tre
Board the ship in the heart of Saigon, then relax on the spacious sun deck as we cruise past the... more+ skyscrapers of Vietnam’s bustling metropolis.

We’ll drop anchor for the night on the Vam Co River.

Ben Tre Chau Doc
Early in the morning, we sail through the Cho Gao Canal, a vital waterway for transporting goods to... more+ and from the city, built in 1876 by the French and offering a fascinating glimpse of life along the water.
We reach Ben Tre, then continue by sampan through mangroves and bamboo forests to the region’s fruit-rich orchards. This fertile agricultural area supplies about half of Vietnam’s rice production, which comes from the Mekong Delta.
It is also home to a rich artisanal culture that we discover in a local village specializing in traditional crafts.
Back on board, we sail further into the delta toward Chau Doc.

Chau Doc Long Thuan
In the morning, we take minibuses for a short ride to Mount Sam, home to Phuoc Dien Tu, also known... more+ as Hang Pagoda. After climbing the steps, we are rewarded with a breathtaking view of the Mekong River. For those who prefer not to climb the stairs, there is the option to explore the local market instead.
Next, we take a sampan to visit the nearby floating fish farms before watching a private lion dance performance in a local village.
Back on board, we navigate through a network of canals before anchoring at the Vietnam–Cambodia border to complete immigration formalities.
Note: During high-water periods in October and November, navigation to Chau Doc may be difficult due to low bridges. In this case, the day’s excursion is replaced by a visit to a local village in Long Thuan.
