This morning, a 2-hour drive from Ho Chi Minh city
takes us to My Tho, a gateway to the Mekong Delta. Here, we will board a
motorized wooden sampan to begin our journey on the mighty Mekong River around
Tan My and Thoi Son Islands where numerous floating fish-farms and houseboats
have been docked for decades. Disembark at one of the floating farms, interact
with fishermen at work and learn about the fishing industry in this beautiful
area. 

Switch to a rowing
boat for a slow ride along the small canals shaded by water coconut trees. Then hop on bicycles
to explore the green-lush island covered by hectares of gardens specialized in
growing grapefruits, coconuts, bananas, durian, jack fruits, longans. Stop at a family to learn about the process of
nourishing mushrooms.

 At the verdant garden of Mr. Hai Phuong, see his farm
of cows, pigs, chickens, fishing pond, and enjoy fresh seasonal fruits picked
from the garden.

Enjoy lunch with Mekong delicacies at a family’s
garden where you could also see the hostess making “banh khot” (Vietnamese
savory mini pancakes) – a popular but delicious local dish. Further our
exploration by bicycle to see more cottage industries in the backstreets of
this tranquil island: home-made moonshine locally branded over 3 generations; a
bee farm with collection of farming, gardening, and fishing tools used over
generations and meet a professional craft weaver to see her artistic craftworks
such as straw hat, water hyacinth basket and bracelet. 

We then re-boarded our motorized boat for the cruise
to return to the mainland. Bid farewell to our boat captain and take the drive
back to Ho Chi Minh, arriving in the late afternoon.
