Vinh Long is about 140km from Saigon, 40km from Can Tho. This unique tour includes an amazing Mekong River boat excursion with lunch on board, a light trekking in the hundred-brick-kiln Kingdom & its village, the rowing sampan & small canal, visit the coconut candy & pop rice village on the islet.
When people ask me what to see in Mekong today. I tell them view our MekongDelta365.

Nowadays, there are more and more green and responsible tours which are meaningful and educational as well. This is why Can Tho noodle factory is getting popular for both Vietnamese and foreigners to come and explore the cuisine culture and the typical local life in Can Tho, Mekong Delta.

I loved how mellow and personal this tour felt. Danh was so kind — he didn’t overwhelm us with facts, but shared stories that made everything come alive. The boat was comfortable, and the stops felt meaningful rather than rushed. I was blown away by the brick kilns — so sculptural and raw. Our village trek was quiet and beautiful, and I had a real conversation with a woman who still makes bricks by hand. Lunch on the river was peaceful, and the sampan ride... just dreamy. This felt like a day spent with friends, not a typical tour.
J’ai adoré cette journée hors du temps. Dès l’arrivée à Vinh Long, Hannah nous a accueillis avec le sourire et une grande gentillesse. La visite des fours à briques était fascinante, surtout en découvrant qu’ils sont encore utilisés aujourd’hui. La balade dans le village était tranquille, sans précipitation, avec beaucoup d’explications sur la vie locale. Déjeuner sur le bateau au fil de l’eau, puis navigation en sampan dans les petits canaux bordés de cocotiers… une vraie parenthèse. Merci Hannah pour cette belle découverte.
Nunca había visto algo como el “reino de los ladrillos” en Vinh Long. Es impresionante — cientos de hornos antiguos, algunos en uso, otros como monumentos al pasado. Minh fue un guía excelente, muy paciente y con gran pasión por la historia local. Me encantó caminar por el pueblo, ver cómo viven las personas y cómo conservan sus tradiciones. El almuerzo en el barco fue relajante, y el paseo en sampán fue un momento mágico. Muy recomendado para quienes buscan una experiencia cultural profunda y distinta.
I took this tour mostly because I heard about the brick kiln visuals — and they did not disappoint. But what I didn’t expect was the richness behind those visuals. Hannah added so much depth to what we saw: the stories of how entire families work together, how the kilns operate seasonally, how the techniques have barely changed in 100 years. Every stop was a photo opportunity, but more than that, a moment to reflect. Lunch on the boat gave me a moment to sit with it all, and the quiet canals at the end were like a moving painting. Bring your camera. And your curiosity.
Un'esperienza tranquilla e ricca di significato. Duy è stato attento e premuroso durante tutta la giornata. I forni di mattoni e ceramiche di Vinh Long sembravano usciti da un film: enormi, caldi, e pieni di storia. Ho apprezzato moltissimo la camminata nel villaggio, con la possibilità di vedere da vicino il lavoro artigianale e la vita quotidiana delle persone. Il pranzo a bordo della barca è stato rilassante, accompagnato da un paesaggio calmo. E la pagaiata in sampan? Magica. Una giornata lontana dal caos, immersa nella tradizione.
This tour gave me time to breathe. I’ve been rushing through Vietnam, but today, with Lâm’s calm and thoughtful guiding, I slowed down and listened. The brick and pottery kilns were so striking — some half-abandoned, some alive with smoke and workers — all surrounded by quiet canals. Lâm told stories not just of the process, but of the people who’ve kept this going for generations. We walked through a peaceful village, and I felt like I was part of something more local, more real. The lunch on the boat was lovely, and the sampan ride with a gentle breeze made me close my eyes in gratitude. 고마워요, Lâm.
Dieser Tagesausflug war genau das, was ich nach der hektischen Stadt Saigon gebraucht habe. Minh war ein ausgezeichneter Guide – ruhig, respektvoll und mit viel Wissen über die Region. Die Töpfer- und Ziegelbrennereien in Vinh Long waren faszinierend, besonders weil sie noch traditionell betrieben werden. Der Spaziergang durch das Dorf war authentisch und ohne Kitsch. Mittagessen auf dem Boot mit Blick auf den Fluss war ein Genuss. Und die Ruderfahrt durch die kleinen Kanäle – einfach wunderschön. Wer das echte Mekong-Delta sehen will, ist hier genau richtig.
I booked this tour just to fill a free day from HCMC — I didn’t expect it to become one of the best parts of our whole trip. Thomas met us in Vinh Long with a warm smile and just the right amount of humor. The kiln village was surreal — the scale of the old brick towers along the canal is something you have to see in person. We walked with Thomas through the back paths of the village and saw things no normal tourist would ever find. He made it all feel relaxed and personal. The food on the boat was delicious (try the fried elephant ear fish if available). Highly recommend!
Hannah was so graceful and knowledgeable throughout the day. We never felt rushed, yet we saw so much. The kilns — oh my, they were stunning. Towering structures of clay, smoke, and age. It felt like a living museum. The walk through the village was calm and meaningful, with locals greeting us kindly. Lunch on board was light and refreshing, and the quiet rowing through canals was the perfect ending. Hannah shared many personal stories about her upbringing nearby, which made everything even more heartfelt. This tour offered something deeper than sightseeing — it offered connection.
This tour gave me a whole new appreciation for traditional industries. Danh explained the brick and pottery kilns in such a detailed way that I felt like I was stepping into a history book. We walked through the village, saw the inside of these massive kilns, and even chatted with locals still working by hand. It’s rare to see such an untouched corner of Vietnam. Lunch on the boat was simple but flavorful, and I enjoyed having the breeze and river scenery while we ate. The sampan ride in the narrow canal — picture-perfect. Danh was friendly and kept a great flow to the day. Grazie mille!
