Mango Cruises, Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City and The South

Mango Cruises take you closer to the soul of the Mekong region and provide a more hands on experience than many other tours. You travel along rural tributaries aboard a small traditional Sampan boat and stop along the way to explore the tropical scenery and local villages. Whilst on land you’ll have the chance to cycle along the rural roads learning about local trades like coconut pressing and rice noodle processing whilst meeting villagers such as Mrs Huong and her family who live on fishing and the harvest from the fruit orchards.

The particularly unique element of this tour is the overnight accommodation which is on land in a local homestay where you can catch fish and pick vegetables before enjoying a cooking demonstration prior to a delicious dinner.

On this tour you’ll experience the contrast between the busy industrial waterways of the Mekong and the quiet rural life along the canals and gain an understanding of the significance of the mighty river.

This tour is ideal for anyone who wants to experience the region first hand, we think it would be especially suited to families as there is plenty to keep everyone interested and inspired.
