About Can Tho Floating Market Tours

A floating market tour in Can Tho gets you on the water before the heat and after the boats gather: a guide handles the sampan, the bargaining and the breakfast order while the delta trades around you.

Floating markets peak between 6 and 8 am and wind down by mid-morning — the dawn start is not optional if you want the real thing.

What Travelers Say

5/5 from 1800 verified GetYourGuide travelers

"Amazing trip, everything was perfect. We were only 2 people on a really small boat, and we went to not touristic places at all making it perfect ! Sophia gave us good informations about places and was really kind and nice. We strongly recommend !"

Théophile France

"We had Cory for this tour and he was great, he was very informative and genuine and his english was also very good. The tour was quite insightful, we got to see a real glimpse into the lives of the people living on the mekong delta and we got to learn a lot about vietnamese culture, daily life and some vietnamese history. The itinerary of the trip was also very well balanced and was a good mix of relaxing, walking and learning. At the end we were sad to go as we found Cory to be a genuinely passionate and knowledgeable young man who cares so much about his country and we feIt like we could keep talking and asking more questions. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a more personal and authentic experience of the mekong delta and the people who live on and around it."

"Our trip on the Mekong river was magical and unexpected! Our guide, Sophie, has been the best part of our tour, as she went into detail about what life here is like, taking us for walks in the fruit farms, villages and showing us some traditional cooking methods. She answered all of our questions and fed into our curiosity. Would recommend to all to ask for her when booking the tour!"

"Sophia was the best guide you could ask for. The correct balance of funny and knowledgeable. I am so happy I chose this smaller more intimate tour rather than one of the big ones packed with people that I saw go past. This was the highlight of Can Tho!"
