Cai Rang floating market – a must-have floating market

Discover the Magic Tree
09:00 AM: Cycle with your guide and step back into the area’s history; there used to be revolutionary bases against the French colonial regime and American invaders in the previous centuries. A 150-year-old banyan tree in Can Tho City with scores of entangled aerial roots has a matrix-like appearance, and is also the first Vietnamese Heritage Tree in the Mekong Delta region, as recognised by the Vietnam Association for Conservation of Nature and Environment.
Back to hotel
10:00 AM: A car/taxi choices you up, and transfers you back to your hotel in the centre of Can Tho City. Please tell us the meeting point to pick up and drop off if your hotel is far from Can Tho city centre.
