Gathered in front of Sincafe at 7.30am for the one day trip to Mekong!! We are assigned to a bus randomly. You can see alot of tourists carried their luggage waiting for the bus arrival.
This bus to Mekong River?
Maybe this bus to Mekong River
As we do not have a appointed tour guide and bus driver, thus all tourists with different package of tour are mixed together in few buses and sharing a same tour guide! Some of them taking 3D2N tour, 2D1N tour and 1D trip like us.Anyway, our destination is Mekong Delta floating market!

Arrived at Mekong jetty after 2-3 hours bus ride. Had to walk about 5minutes to the jetty.
walk and walk
The boat arrived quickly and off we went along the Mekong river, visiting the village to see they live along the river. But not much of activities at the floating market because it was too late for the business hour! All of the seller and buyer left the market! If you want to see all the action in the market, advisable to stay there over night so you can be there early in the morning for river market action!

After the visit to Mekong river, we went back to the bus and the bus brought us to a small town. Can’t remember the name but nothing much to do there. After which back to Ho Chi Minh. Took about 4 hours back to the city due to traffic jam!
