Guests will gather at the Viet Fun Travel Office (28/13 Bui Vien Street, Pham Ngu Lao Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City) to start the One-Day Can Tho Tour (Cai Rang Floating Market & Son Islet). The coach will then take you to Can Tho, the land of "white rice and clear water," famously known as Tay Do – the capital of the Southwest region of Vietnam.

The vehicle will take you to the Cai Rang Floating Market. Then, you will board a boat to explore the market, enjoy breakfast, and taste fresh fruits on the river.

✔ Explore the Floating Market: Cai Rang Floating Market is the largest floating market in the Mekong Delta. It was born, has thrived, and continues to exist due to the real-life needs of the local people. Here, visitors will witness everyday activities such as trading, loading and unloading goods, tossing fruits, and selling breakfast foods. Friendly smiles, sincere eyes, and cheerful invitations to buy create a warm atmosphere that touches the hearts of visitors. Cai Rang Floating Market's soul, beauty, and charm lie in its simplicity — genuine, rustic, and truly Mekong Delta.

✔ Breakfast "Hu Tieu Lac": This is a wonderful experience where you can savour delicious, rustic breakfast dishes while feeling the boat's gentle rocking as waves hit its sides. The lively atmosphere of the morning market—with laughter, friendly calls, and boats cruising back and forth—adds to the excitement and fun.

✔ Enjoy "Kho Coffee" on the boat's roof: "Kho coffee" is a unique speciality you can only find at Cai Rang Floating Market. The name "kho" (meaning "stewed" or "braised") comes from the traditional way local boat people brew their coffee. They place the coffee pot on a low charcoal stove to keep it hot throughout the morning market, simulating a slow stew. This method gives the coffee a rich, thick, and fragrant flavour. Sipping this aromatic coffee while taking in the bustling yet peaceful market scene makes for a truly memorable experience in the Can Tho River's cool morning air.

✔ Taste fresh sweet pineapple: At the market, you can hop onto the seller's boat and enjoy fresh pineapple, the "queen of fruits", juicy and delicious. The vendor will peel it right on the spot for you to enjoy.

✔ Visit the rice paper and noodle workshop: After the floating market, the next stop is a local workshop where you can watch how the locals make everyday staples like rice paper and rice noodles. You can even try your hand at a part of the interesting process and sample the uniquely delicious Hu Tieu Pizza, a one-of-a-kind speciality in Can Tho.
