  • Mekong Delta - A "Biological Treasure Trove"

Mekong Delta - A "Biological Treasure Trove"

Table of Contents

The colorful collection of towns sprinkled along the banks of the Mekong River is blessed with dazzling blue skies, brimming with exotic fruits, and dotted with markets, temples, and colonial-era mansions.

Where is the Mekong Delta?

The Mekong Delta is famous for its distinctive river life, which includes floating marketplaces, fruit plantations, and fishing. However, this region has a very long coastline that reaches Cambodia and various islands off the shore. It might be a fantastic chance to unwind on a  beautiful beach in the Mekong Delta.

Mekong Delta in Vietnam 

Mekong Delta in Vietnam

Don't leave Vietnam without experiencing the Mekong Delta, one of the country's most intriguing and attractive locations. Even the most basic scheduled tour provides action-packed days with bus and boat journeys to tiny craft communities, mangrove swamps, island orchards, and beautiful floating marketplaces. A one-day trip isn't long enough to truly see the delta, so stay overnight, preferably in the delta's metropolitan hubs of Can Tho or Chau Doc near Cambodia.
The delta is a network of Mekong River waterways that spans three provinces and over 60,000 kilometers (37,200 miles). The region is heavily inhabited, with 18 million people, the majority of whom work in agriculture and fisheries. The Mekong Delta, known as Vietnam's "rice basket," accounts for more than half other for all rice and vegetables produced in the nation, exporting between 4 million and 5 million tons annually. The countryside is dotted with vibrant green rice paddies, fruit orchards, sugar cane fields, and vegetable gardens, while the seas teem with boats and fish farms. Rice cultivation and harvesting are still done by water buffaloes rather than tractors, as well as laborious hand planting of rice shoots, weeding, and hand harvesting.
During the Vietnam War, the Mekong delta was a hub for Viet Cong guerillas, and some trips will take you to the remnants of former Viet Cong hide-outs, replete with concealed ambush holes and a ride amid the mangrove swamp where stealth soldiers withdrew after attacks in Saigon.

Best time to visit Mekong Delta

The dry season in southern Vietnam lasts from November to March, making it an ideal period to explore the Mekong Delta due to consistent weather and brilliant blue skies.
However, the most excellent time to visit the Mekong Delta, in my view, is during the shoulder season (between the wet and dry seasons). If you go in November or May, the floating woods will be full of water and the landscape will be lush, but the temperature will still be quite dry and hot.

Mekong delta easy riders

Discover the "rice bowl" of Vietnam on an Easy Rider - Mekong Delta tour. The Mekong Delta is a popular destination for excursions offered by several travel companies. You will sometimes be seated alongside dozens of other visitors in big buses that go along the highway and discharge their passengers simultaneously at the most well-known attractions. Do you wish to explore this stunning region of Vietnam in that way? Along the route, there is so much to see and do! Ho Chi Minh City is where this tour begins and concludes (former Saigon).

Mekong delta Nine Gate

Although 13 provinces combine and make up Mekong Delta, each province has a distinct color, culture, and cuisine. Mekong BMW Motorcycle Trip Exploring Nine Gates of Mekong River 7 days from BM Travel Adventure Experience, all the quintessence of the Mekong Delta will be in your hands. And relaxing on Phu Quoc Island will make every single moment of this journey worthwhile for you.

Mekong delta Motorcycle Tour

This motorcycle trip departing from Ho Chi Minh City is intended for riders with limited time to travel in southern Vietnam so they can have a thorough understanding of the Mekong River Delta and the opportunity to enjoy fantastic motorcycle rides along stunning beaches. The majority of the ride is on slick coastal roads and backcountry byways, making it quite simple. One of our most well-liked motorcycle trips in South Vietnam is this one.

Motorbike Crossing Border

A Vietnamese motorcycle may go to both Cambodia and Laos before returning to Vietnam. Any traveler who wants to complete the loop via Cambodia, Vietnam, and Laos needs a Vietnamese motorcycle. Both the Moc Bai border with Cambodia (two hours from HCM) and the Ha Tien border (next to Phu Quoc) are often used. Both entering and exiting Cambodia are without any issues. The motorbike's blue card should be present, but in our experience, border officials have never requested it. All Cambodian visas are issued "on arrival," and as far as we can tell, the procedure is fairly easy.

Ho Chi Minh to Mekong Delta

Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour

Cu Chi tunnels and Mekong Delta Tour

Southern Vietnam's Cu Chi Tunnels, an incredible subterranean network built by Vietcong warriors during the war, are a must-visit historical site. A great vacation spot is the Mekong Delta. Along with the beautiful and serene rural surroundings, the kind and welcoming residents are a major draw for tourists. Although this combined trip is intended for those who do not have much time in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), we nevertheless strongly advise seeing the attractions independently if you have the time.

Ho Chi Minh to Mekong Delta distance

The Mekong Delta is the western region of Vietnam where the Mekong River runs to the sea, earning it the nickname "river delta of Nine Dragons." It is often referred to as the Southwest or the Southern Delta. There are 12 tiny provinces and a lively city in Can Tho in this vast network of waterways, wetlands, and islands (Long An, Tien Giang, Ben Tre, Vinh Long, Tra Vinh, Dong Thap, Hau Giang, Soc Trang, An Giang, Kien Giang, Bac Lieu, and Ca Mau).
About 193 kilometers separate Ho Chi Minh from the Mekong Delta. Despite the fact that this location is made up of 12 provinces, one of the most popular ways to go there is from Ho Chi Minh City to Can Tho. However, if you reserve a tour to the southern region of Vietnam through a local travel agency, they could choose a different route from Saigon to Ben Tre. You may select the best route and the most appropriate mode of transportation for your trip based on your itinerary and interests.

Where to stay in the Mekong Delta?

Where to stay in Mekong Delta

Mekong Delta Ricefield Lodge

The Ricefield Lodge is a location where the "genuine" vacation is still experienced. Nothing has been impacted by tourists and it remains quite authentic. The locals are incredibly kind and greet each visitor with open arms. You occasionally feel like a pop star since one of the children's chants may be heard here on the street at any time.

Mekong Delta Homestay

Experience an unforgettable homestay in the Mekong Delta and delve into local culture. Stay on a river island and participate in the hosts' everyday routines and assist them in creating local cuisine. Visit the bustling marketplaces and local artisans at work by boat or on foot along the winding rivers.

The island Lodge Mekong Delta

The Mekong Delta's Unicorn Island, an auspicious location if there ever was one, is where The Island Lodge calls home, not just any old island. One of Vietnam's most serene hotels may be found here, not far from Ho Chi Minh City. The area's tranquillity belies its close proximity to the city. And if it's not the most extravagant boutique hotel in the world, that's to be expected; rather than extravagant luxury or spectacular design, what attracts visitors to this establishment is charm and character.

Mekong Delta Accommodation

Among the Mekong Delta, there are many different types of accommodations that you may pick from according to your preferences, including hotels, homestays, and lodges in rice fields, among others.

Mekong Delta Floating Market Tour

There are many marketplaces and shopping complexes in Vietnam, so there is no lack of places to shop. Additionally, no vacation to the Mekong region would be complete without shopping at one of the floating markets, which are typically open from early in the morning until 9:00. There are six well-known floating marketplaces, including those at Cho Gao, Phong Dien, Cai Be, Phung Hiep, and Cai Rang. Phung Hiep is thought to be the largest of these due to its location at the confluence of seven significant canals. Other well-known floating marketplaces in the Mekong Delta include Cai Rang and Phong Dien.

Tourists don't just visit this area for the stunning rice paddies and the enormous Mekong Delta. The Mekong Delta is well known for the activities that take place along the river.

In addition to visiting floating markets and villages, tasting colorful fruits, touring orchards, and visiting fish farms, you can also have a homestay in one of the numerous traditional villages or cook with the locals.

Ben Tre, the calm countryside adorned with green coconut palms, is one of the excellent spots for individuals seeking leisure away from the hustle and bustle of city life and back to the garden land.

Can Tho

The boat set down on the river like a "mobile dwelling," complete with potted plants, dogs, and motorbikes.

Chau Doc

Chau Doc is a convenient stop for travelers traveling between Vietnam and Cambodia. It is renowned for the diversity of its ethnic and religious populations, which include individuals of Khmer, Chinese, Cham, and Vietnamese descent. The surrounding surroundings are lush with rice terraces and breathtaking rural scenery, similar to most of the Mekong Delta.

Phu Quoc Island

On Phu Quoc Island, where beautiful beaches and warm waves lure beachgoers from all over the world, to soak in the sun and a bit of Vietnamese culture. Although jet-skiing, wind sailing, and squid fishing—yes, squid fishing—are all available to you while on vacation, snorkeling, scuba diving, and fishing are the most popular water sports here. For a genuine native experience, visit the Duong Dong Market in the morning.
