Discover Cai Be, a charming town about 105 km from Ho Chi Minh City, famous for its tropical fruit gardens, riverside villages, floating market, and warm locals. Start your day with a minivan ride to Cai Lay, known for its fruit orchards like longan, jackfruit, and durian. Cycle through peaceful countryside paths, covering 18-25 km to see fruit farms and local life. In Cai Be, watch locals make treats like puffed rice and coconut candy. Hop on a boat for a leisurely Mekong River cruise, passing villages and the bustling floating market. Enjoy lunch at a local garden house on Tan Phong Island, trying dishes like pancakes and deep-fried fish. Explore small canals on sampans, then head to Long An for a bike ride through red-fleshed dragon fruit farms and rice fields as the sun sets. Learn about farming practices and taste fresh fruits along the way. End the day with a beer and snacks before returning to Saigon by 7 PM.
