Experience authentic Southern hospitality through immersive homestays and cultural adventures.
If you're looking for an authentic adventure, a Mekong Delta tour with a homestay experience is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the rich culture and daily life of Southern Vietnam. The Mekong Delta, known as the "Rice Bowl" of Vietnam, offers more than just scenic waterways and floating markets—it invites you to become part of its vibrant, close-knit communities.
Discover Authentic Community-Based Tourism
Staying in a local homestay is more than just a place to sleep; it's an invitation to live like a local. Many families in the Mekong Delta open their homes to travelers, offering a warm welcome and an opportunity to engage in traditional activities. From cooking classes to farming and handicrafts, these experiences provide a deeper understanding of the region's heritage and lifestyle.

Things You Need To Know Before Experiencing Mekong Delta Homestay
Experience a Sunset Bicycle Ride on the Island
Instead of traditional farming activities, take a leisurely bicycle ride through the serene islands of the Mekong Delta as the sun sets. Pedal along narrow paths flanked by lush greenery, passing by local villages and picturesque rice fields. The warm, golden light of the setting sun casts a magical glow over the landscape, creating a perfect moment to connect with nature and soak in the peaceful ambiance of the Delta.

Try Your Hand at Local Crafts
Beyond farming and cooking, many homestays offer workshops on traditional crafts. Learn how to weave mats from water hyacinth, make coconut candy, or even craft your own conical hat (nón lá). These hands-on experiences are a fun and creative way to take home a piece of the Mekong Delta's culture.
