At 5.30 am, our tour guide will pick you up at your hotel (if it is in the city centre) or meeting point and then take you to our boat where you will start your tour.
It takes around 40 – 45 minutes to arrive at the Cai Rang floating market. On the way, you will have a chance to watch the sunrise which makes you understand why it is special, famous and attracts many tourists every year.
At Cai Rang floating market, our boat driver will drive the boat slowly around the floating market for 1-2 rounds so that you can enjoy observing how local people trade products on their boats and enjoy the bustling atmosphere. There are hundreds of boats with many kinds of fruits, roots, and veggies such as pineapples, pumpkins, sweet potatoes, watermelon, etc.
You will experience sitting on boats and having breakfast on the floating market which is a must-do when you visit the place. A miniature society will be shown in front of you through the image of the bustling Cai Rang floating market.
At 7.30 am, you will keep boating over to a noodle local house where you make your own rice paper and noodles guided by local people.
Heading to authentic small canals – one of the tenth most beautiful small canals in Can Tho and also known for its peacefulness, unlike the busy tourist spots. It takes more than an hour on the canals which are very long and peaceful. Our boat driver will stop driving, but paddling slowly so that you can immerse yourself in nature with many green trees and bird songs which make you so relaxed and enjoy the fresh air.
You will see many fruit orchards along the canals and some local houses where local people are living. Sometimes you will see local people wave at you and say “hi”. Then back to the hotel.
