Southern Vietnam's watery heartland, the Mekong Delta is a lush maze of rivers, rice paddies and coconut-lined canals where life revolves around the water. Glide by sampan through narrow palm-shaded channels, browse bustling floating markets at dawn and sample tropical fruit straight from the orchards. It is a gentle, colourful contrast to the buzz of Saigon. Our packages bring this timeless river world to life.

Why visit the Mekong Delta

The Mekong Delta offers a window into a way of life shaped entirely by water. Floating markets, sampan rides and welcoming villages make it one of southern Vietnam's most memorable experiences, and a perfect escape from the city.

How to reach the Mekong Delta

The delta begins a couple of hours south of Ho Chi Minh City by road. We arrange transfers and boats from Saigon, whether for a day trip or an overnight to reach the best floating markets.

Best time to visit

The delta is best from November to April, the dry season, with pleasant days for cruising. It is warm year-round, and even in wetter months rain tends to fall in short bursts.

Floating markets & boat trips

The signature experience is an early floating market such as Cai Rang, best reached from Can Tho. Combine it with sampan rides through the coconut canals and orchard visits for a full delta day.

Food & local flavours

The delta brims with tropical fruit and river fish. Try elephant-ear fish, fresh spring rolls, coconut candy and rice-paper snacks, often enjoyed at riverside gardens.

Visa assistance

Indian travellers need a Vietnam e-Visa, typically issued in 3–5 working days. Holiday Vibez assists with the application, with issuance decided by the authorities.

From the 30-minute callback to our private villa in Ubud, every little detail was handled. Our guide even arranged a surprise candle-lit dinner on the beach. Zero stress — pure magic.

Travelling with my parents and two kids, I was nervous. Holiday Vibez planned every single day perfectly, and the Alleppey houseboat was the highlight. We are already planning our next trip with them.

Best price I found anywhere, and the desert safari and Burj Khalifa tickets were all sorted before we even landed. The team was on WhatsApp whenever I had a question.

The Gulmarg gondola, the shikara ride on Dal Lake — exactly like the photos, no surprises at all. By the end of the trip our driver felt like family.

Scuba at Havelock was a dream come true. Every transfer and every hotel was exactly as promised. Worth every rupee, and I have already recommended them to friends.
