Vientnam | Discover the Delta's Allure
Do you plan to travel to Vietnam soon? specifically in Ho Chi Minh? I honestly think you should do a trip to Mekong Delta. We did a Mekong Delta Tour from Ho Chi Minh City and it was splendid.
I did look forward to this activity in Ho Chi Minh because it was something that I really wanted to do. We availed this activity online and spent our last day exploring the beauty of Southern Vietnam and we had a blast! What I love the most about this trip is the chance to meet other people, to make connection and experience that would last a lifetime.
We did enjoy the local lifestyle experience. I would say that Mekong Delta tour is definitely a completely unique experience one should try.
For bookings, you may avail online through various booking platforms.

Nine Dragons River - Mekong River 🛶
#wecreate
An incredible journey to take a row boat while exploring the Mekong river and local villages with green landscapes. Its amazing to see different ways of living since most of the locals that live nearby the river is still living in a traditional ways. The locals there is very welcoming and they would love to share some of their life experiences with you.
In the area I visited - My Tho, I also got the chance to visit the coconut candy factories. You can see the process of making the coconut candies and purchase it. It comes with different kinds of flavour such as chocolate and durian. There is also mini zoo and garden in the same area which is cool.
You can take a join in tour if you would love to visit. It will take about an hour or two to reach My Tho from Ho Chi Minh City. Beside My Tho, the tour will stop at one of the most popular pagoda, Vinh Trang which is just nearby the area.

Mekong Delta Tour
As part of a group trip I went on, we visited the Mekong River. The tour was in 2 parts, we took a cruise to one island to see the coconut candy making process. Then took the boat back to Unicorn Island where we had fresh fruit, honey tea and traditional music. From Unicorn Island, we had the local ladies row us along the Mekong River back to our main boat. This was really enjoyable as it made the trip feel fuller.
I booked this trip with trip.com and had Jen as a tour guide, she was amazing and accommodating.

Luang Prabang - a vintage vinyl of a town
Take a plunge into the history and culture of this quaint town which boasts unique architecture. It will be love at first sight. A small tip there: take it in slowly and let the good vibes permeate the air from dawn - when you witness the serene beauty of the monks' procession - till dusk, enjoying the sunset either on top of the centrally located Mount Phu Si or by the riverside of the mighty Mekong. In between, stroll along tiny streets and alleys or rent a bicycle and explore the whole town at a leisurely pace (or speed), stopping for a cup of locally grown coffee or to sample delectable local dishes. Once acquainted with the town itself, head to the majestic Kuang Si Falls. When going upstream, prepare yourself to be amazed by the beauty of this natural wonder, which gradually reveals itself to the visitors (when you take the longer path to the right). #luangprabang #kuangsi #kuangsiwaterfall #mekong #mekongriver #laos #phousi #phusi
