[quote=Anonymous]OP coming back for more advice....

So I am really considering doing the 2-day Halong Bay (mainly because to/from driving of 2+hrs from Hanoi in a day is a lot).

So I might trim back the 2-day Mekong Delta to a 1-day --- thoughts on below 2-day and 1-day options??

[b]2-Day Option[/b]
Day 1 Depart Ho Chi Minh and head towards Ben Tre; boat trip along the Mekong River, visit a family-run business and stroll through fruit plantation village. Details here: [url]https://www.asiatours.com/tours/a-glimpse-of-the-mekong-ben-tre-can-tho-2-days.html[/url]
Overnight in Can Tho.
Day 2 6.30am visit the Cai Rang floating market; continue cruising through the small channels system and visit a rice noodle making village. Experience the “Monkey Bridge” in the Delta. Break for lunch then return to Ho Chi Minh.

1-Day Option[/b]
Early AM depart Ho Chi Minh City and depart for My Tho Port; boat cruise on the Tien River to view the four islets: Long, Lan, Quy,
Phung. Passy by floating fish farms along the Tien River. Arrive at Thoi Son islet: Stroll through village paths, visit fruit orchards, enjoy seasonal fruits, and listen to traditional Southern Vietnamese music. Rowing boat through small canals: Enjoy the peaceful riverine scenery, visit a honey bee farm, and taste honey tea and banana wine. Continue down the Tien River to Tan Thach Canal (Ben Tre): Visit a coconut candy workshop, and explore traditional handicrafts. Motorboat excursion on Tan Thach canal: Discover the daily life of
local people, have lunch at a local restaurant. The eco-restaurant features crocodile, porcupine farms, frog, and snake farming models,
hammocks for relaxing, and bicycles for exploring fruit orchards, coconut groves, and rice fields. Horse-drawn carriage tour through
village paths.
Return to Ho Chi Minh city

I'd be giving up the Cai Rang floating market but I think we can squeeze in a floating market while in Bangkok. Thoughts?[/quote]
