Cai Be Floating Market
Unfortunately the floating market of Cai Be is getting smaller every year, since trade is shifting more and more into modern central markets. The Catholic cathedral in the background of the floating market is an awesome motive for photos.
Stunning canals, wild islets and hidden homestay
In the Mekong Delta, life is lived on the water. Rivers and canals wind through the region, and locals grow up paddling boats and travelling by ferry. Get a taste of this unique culture by taking a sampan to explore small canals and mangrove forests. Women typically row sampans standing up while skillfully navigating the currents and twists of each waterway. You also can explore the area very well by bicycle riding on narrow roads along small side canals. Many of the small shady canals, which branch off from the larger river arms, are hard to spot, because they are overgrown by lush greenery.
Many old houses in Cai Be
There are also some old houses in Dong Hoa Hiep Commune, Cai Be. Best preserved ones include Ba Duc Old House, Cai Huy Old House and Ba Kiet Old House. They were built in old architecture typical in the region. Some were restored under the cooperation programme of the Vietnamese government and the Japan International Cooperation Agency, JICA.
Mekong Delta Cruises
Cai Be river is the meeting point of the river tributaries of Tien Giang, Vinh Long and Ben Tre. This town has many cruises for tourists who are passionate about exploring nature and the majestic Mekong river. Mekong excursions can last for the day, overnight, or even cross-country between Vietnam and Cambodia and Laos. With the advantage of the mighty Mekong river, more and more tourists choose Cai Be as the place to start the trip of a lifetime - the Mekong Delta expedition.
Getting here and around
As a hidden town of Tien Giang, Cai Be is getting easier for everyone to get there and get around. It also means that traveling to the town won’t take much sweat, especially when you get here by public bus, car via the highway. We will break this down in detail, so check the information below to choose your best vehicle option.
Air travel: Currently, there aren’t any direct flights to Cai Be. The nearest one is Tan Son Nhat intl airport and Tra Noc intl (Can Tho) airport.
Bus travel: From Ho Chi Minh city to Cai Be. The best bus company for getting from Saigon to Cai Be is the Hải Duyên bus company. Bus tickets are inexpensive (about 100,000 VND per person) and they depart approximately every half hour during the day. The buses are air-conditioned, the seats are comfortable and spacious, and, in our experience, the buses are punctual. Tickets for Hải Duyên Buses are also easy to reserve online. Buses depart from 97B Nguyễn Duy Street in District 5 of Saigon. The bus terminates in Cai Be so you won’t need to worry about where to get off. Just stay on until the last stop and you’ll arrive in downtown Cai Be. If you choose to stay at Cai Be homestays in the islet, you’ll want the bus driver to drop you off at the Cai Be Tourist Pier. The locals from the homestays will arrange to pick you up in a boat when you arrive at the harbor.
Bus travel: From Can Tho to Cai Be. Take the public bus as Futa bus line or Thanh Buoi bus line. Super easy to have a ticket. These buses are great and new and AC and depart from Can Tho to HCMC every 15 minutes. On the way, you just tell the driver to drop you off in Cai Be town. The bus ticket is about 120,000 VND. For your return trip, you can pre-book your tickets or have your accommodation help reserve the tickets for you. Once you’ve arrived at the Can Tho Bus Station, take a taxi to your Can Tho accommodation. Or, if taking the Futa bus line, take the complimentary transportation van which goes to certain areas in 10 km distance.
Boat travel: Not a public boat yet. But it is quite typical to see some tourists book a customized boat trip from Cai Be to Vinh Long or Vinh Long to Can Tho for both exploring the Mekong river and avoiding the long drive with the traffic.

The roads are bumpy and occasionally muddy but the distances are relatively short. You’ll notice that many of the locals opt to travel by bike as well so you’ll be in good company.
Ferry travel: Two passenger ferries run between the Cai Be mainland and the island of Tan Phong in the middle of the Mekong River. The first ferry leaves from the town of Cai Be near the tourist pier and drops you on the western end of Tan Phong island. The second ferry leaves from further downriver near the village of Hiệp Đức and drops you closer to the middle of Tan Phong island. This allows you to make a loop on your bicycle. The ferries run about every 10 minutes so you’ll never have to wait long to cross. You can ride your bicycle or motorbike up the ramp and onto the boat. The fare is ~4,500 VND ($0.20) for a person plus a bicycle. You don’t need to buy a ticket before you board – someone will come around to collect payment during the river crossing.
Best time to Visit Cai Be
Cai Be welcomes you in any season all year round, each of that will certainly offer you specifically different types of pleasure and satisfaction. However, the best time is the floating season from September to December.

Rainy season (May – October): It is not a bad choice when traveling to Cai Be during rainy seasons since the rains are short and will not affect your trip.

This decades-old technique of cooking pop-rice begins with pouring whole grains of rice (including husk) into a large, wok-shaped pot filled along with black Mekong River sand over fire. As the worker stirs the mixture, the rice then launches into an explosive spectacle for the eyes and ears.
The popped rice is then filtered through a mesh screen twice, first to sift out the black sand and once again to remove the remaining rice husks (which are then used as fuel for the fire).
As the mixture is stirred over a fire, the rice begins to puff and pop, and it is later filtered twice through a mesh in order to remove the black sand and the remaining husks. The crispy rice is then placed into another wok-shaped pot and mixed with a syrup consisting of sugar and water… Read more info & pictures

Cai Be Kayaking and Canalling
Depending on where you’re staying, your homestay or hotel will probably have a list of activities you can choose from.
On the islets, there are many small canals and less boat traffic which is quite fun for kayaking activity. The muddy fresh water may be interesting in the low tide. It is fun to do in the afternoon. Make sure you put a life jacket on! Safety is priority.
Cai Be Cycling Tour
This is a favourite thing to do in Cai Be, Mekong Delta. While biking or driving a scooter only induces panic and stress in Vietnam’s big cities, the bicycle is actually enjoyable in Vietnam’s small towns. Be sure to pin your hotel or homestay’s location on your map when you embark on your journey: there are a lot of twists and turns to these roads that could get you confused.
If you take a ferry to another island, don’t be worried if your Google Maps feature just shows a block of green, without mapping any actual roads. Just learn or write down the phrase “Phà ở đâu?” (Where is the ferry?) Show someone this and give them the name and address of your accommodation; that will probably get you where you need to be.
Tan Phong Islet
Tan Phong is an islet in the Mekong River accessed via a five-minute ferry ride. The island is a tropical haven. Narrow channels criss-cross the land, creating rich soil that Cai Be farmers cultivate to grow delicious fruits. Plump jackfruits, rambutans, mangoes and mangosteens hang heavy from trees that cover every inch of the island. Give yourself an afternoon to explore the tiny lanes of the islet by bicycle. Ride over tiny bridges and along the water’s edge, all the while surrounded by lush greenery… Read more info & pictures

Don Ca Tai Tu
The people of the Mekong Delta are known for their love of music. Don Ca Tai Tu, a Vietnamese style of folk opera originally from the Mekong Delta, is a mix of ballads and theatre accompanied by a musician playing a zither or, in modern renditions, a guitar. The amusing storylines are often set in Vietnam’s countryside and can be lighthearted, sorrowful, or both. Regardless of language barriers, it’s easy to enjoy Don Ca Tai Tu, thanks to expressive acting and melodious singing.

Dos and Don’ts for Your Trip to Cai Be
Practical tips: Ways to save, Internet, Water, Learn a little Vietnamese and pro Tips
Ways to save:
Stay somewhere with free breakfast. Many budget hotels offer free breakfast to guests.
Eat street food. Food stalls are cheap and plentiful and are a great place to try regional specialities.
Travel by bicycle/motorbike. These two-wheeled bikes are among the cheapest ways to get around Can Tho and Mekong Delta region.
Stick to free attractions. If you’re really tight for cash, attractions such as markets cost nothing.
Can Tho group tours. If you want to see and learn as much as possible with your limited time.
Internet:
Free Wi-Fi can be found everywhere from hotels to coffee shops. If you are from the EU you should be able to use your own data plan too. Or contact the hotel for the sim card.
Water:
Tap water is supposed to be safe but I advise against drinking it. It’s just not worth the risk. My advice is to use bottled water and save yourself from unexpected stomach problems.
Learn a little Vietnamese:
Sure, you can get by with just speaking English, but trying to speak the local language opens you up to much more polite & meaningful interactions with people. Even if you are not perfect or you make a mistake, your effort is appreciated. At a bare minimum: Hello = xin chao (sin chow), yes = dạ vâng, no = không (khom), thank you = cám ơn (kahm uhn), I’m sorry = tôi xin lỗi (toy sin loy), no problem/you’re welcome = không có gì (khong koh zi), goodbye = tạm biệt (tarm byeet), I’m vegetarian = tôi ăn chay (toy an chayh), How much? = bao nhiêu? (baow nyew), spicy/hot (cay), Oh My God (ôi..choy...oi…).
