Try a sampan boat trip

As rivers take up most of the area, it is no doubt that two of the best things to do in the Mekong Delta are off-the-water activities. Trying a sampan boat trip is another. Generally, experience on a sampan boat is the simple, traditional version of that on a Mekong river cruise. Once you settle in your seat, the sampan boat sailed by the locals will take you through mangrove forests to reach some tourist attractions. One thing that makes a sampan trip different from a cruise one is that destinations and activities don’t matter, but the sense of peace when you sightsee everything on both sides is a real treat. On some sampans, lunch is served, which will give you another enthralling experience.
