Hello, I am interested in doing the Cruise 2 Days Can Tho - Cai Be from the 11th to 12th July. I would like to take a flight to Da Nang from Can Tho airport (VCA-DAD) at 13:20. Would it be possible to make this flight, or would it not be possible to leave the boat that early?

@David:
From Cai Be it take about 2 hours transfer to Can Tho so I am afraid you could not catch flight at 13:20, you can do the route Can Tho - Can Tho that ending same city of flight out.

Okay cruise. The first afternoon, we went ashore to explore a village, which was not enjoyable because it was only a walk. The next morning, after breakfast, you leave your cabin and board a smaller boat that takes you up to the floating market, which was interesting to see but much smaller than it… MoreOkay cruise. The first afternoon, we went ashore to explore a village, which was not enjoyable because it was only a walk. The next morning, after breakfast, you leave your cabin and board a smaller boat that takes you up to the floating market, which was interesting to see but much smaller than it used to be, we were told.
We enjoyed learning about living on the Mekong Delta, and the view was stunning. One night was enough to get a sense of the region. Less
We had been informed that the cabins were quite small, so we were grateful that we had simply packed some overnight items in a small bag and didn't have to unpack our suitcases.
While the rooms were small, they provided everything we needed, including air conditioning, which we didn't anticipate on a wooden boat, and a little bathroom with a handheld shower.
We took a one-night boat on the Mekong River as part of a trip to Vietnam. It was well-organized and fun. I believe there were around 12 cabins on board, so we got to meet the other passengers on the boat, which is always fun. The meal was delicious. Service is nice, too.
We contacted Ms. My Uyen to organise our Mekong cruise ln Bassac 2. She was very good at organizing and very good at communication. We felt in very safe hands. The trip went without a hitch.
I was looking for a cruise in the Mekong Delta and came across BestPrice Travel. In the end, I ended up choosing this ship as it suited my budget. Aside from the small cabin, other things were simply amazing. I personally loved the tour through the Cai Ran market, very lively.
