Escape the city and discover two very different sides of southern Vietnam on this 5-day Con Dao Island and Tra Vinh tour from Ho Chi Minh City. Begin your journey in Tra Vinh, a peaceful Mekong Delta province known for its distinctive Khmer culture, Buddhist temples, traditional arts, and rural countryside. Then travel by high-speed ferry to Con Dao Island, a beautiful and relatively untouched island destination famous for its pristine beaches, clear waters, tropical forests, and peaceful atmosphere.

This itinerary combines authentic cultural experiences, countryside cycling, local food, island travel, nature, and free time, making it ideal for travelers who want to experience southern Vietnam at a relaxed pace.

Why Choose This Con Dao & Tra Vinh Tour?

This itinerary is ideal for travelers who want to combine cultural discovery in the Mekong Delta with a relaxing island escape.

Tra Vinh offers a more authentic and less-visited side of southern Vietnam, with its distinctive Khmer heritage, rural landscapes, traditional arts, Buddhist temples, and local specialties.

Con Dao then provides a complete change of scenery, with beautiful beaches, tropical forests, clear waters, and a peaceful island atmosphere. The combination makes this a particularly attractive option for travelers who want both cultural experiences and beach relaxation in one private southern Vietnam itinerary.

Unlike a standard beach holiday, this journey allows you to experience local communities and countryside life before continuing to one of Vietnam's most beautiful island destinations.

Discover the authentic beauty of southern Vietnam on this 5-day Mekong Delta tour from Ho Chi Minh City. Travel through the peaceful countryside of Ben Tre, experience the unique Khmer culture of Tra Vinh, explore the famous Cai Rang Floating Market in Can Tho, cruise through the lush Tra Su Cajuput Forest, and discover the spiritual heritage of Chau Doc.

This itinerary combines local culture, countryside cycling, traditional crafts, Mekong River experiences, authentic cuisine, and beautiful natural landscapes for travellers looking to experience the Mekong Delta beyond the usual tourist routes.

During this tour, you will have opportunity to visit a local market, have a look at Vietnamese farmers while they are working, chat with hospitable people, cook their traditional dishes and share peaceful moments with the Ms. Manh family.

Leaving the peaceful village, we come back to the city center, at slow-pace and enjoy the charming environment, with lovely landscapes and lakes. Hanoi personifies the spirit of historic Vietnam in the temples, monuments and pockets of ancient culture along the narrow streets of the Old Quarter, but perfectly reflects the rapid changes sweeping through the country as Hanoi “Yuppies” sip their cappuccinos in roadside cafes and chat in their cell phones.

If you are looking for a short holiday around Hanoi, this designed trip for you. A tour from Hanoi to Halong Bay and Ninh Binh offers a diverse experience, combining the natural beauty of Halong Bay with the scenic landscapes and cultural attractions of Ninh Binh. And more enjoy almost delicious dishes of the North and hand on cooking class that make you feel really like a local.
