We start early from Saigon, and after around 2.5hour on bus, we arrive in Cai Lay. Settling on a small wooden boat, we are now on the way to explore the unique terrain of the area, with narrow canals and lush tree along their edges. Sometimes you might encounter “playful” fishes jumping out of the water, or typical crabs digging hole to hide themselves from danger. But more excitingly, you will change your clothes now to traditional Mekong costumes, before jumping into small swamp and participate in a funny “fish-catching by bare hand” contest with your partner and children.
Washing hand and back to local house, we have lunch with the fishes you have just caught and also taste the trademark “Elephant Ear” fish (Ca Tai Tuong).
After lunch, we spend other time visiting around the village with Xe Loi (motorized rickshaw) or horse-cart, and relax at fresh orchards, at which you are have relaxing time enjoying some of most luxuriant fruits in the garden (based on season), while listening to local band performing traditional Westland’s songs. Saying goodbye to this lovely land, we board our sampan back to the pier, and get on transfer to return to Saigon. Tour ends when we drop you back at your hotel in Ho Chi Minh City.
