SUMMER CAMPAN OVERVIEW OF DESTINATIONS
Located in the coastal district Southeast of HCM City, Can Gio Mangrove forest is a place with high biodiversity with more than 200 species of fauna and 52 species of flora which has been recovered after the war. Only 1,5 hours drive from HCMC, you will be able to experience one of the most extensive sites of rehabitilitated mangroves in the world. With crocodile farm, “Monkey Island”, and many other wild animals in mangrove forest, this tour will definitely takes you away from the hustle for a unique natural environment.
Nha Trang is well known for its beaches and scuba diving and has developed into a popular destination for international tourists, attracting large numbers of backpackers, as well as more affluent travellers on the Southeast Asia circuit; it is already very popular with Vietnamese tourists, with Nha Trang Bay widely considered as among the world’s most beautiful bays.
HCM City is only 300 years old but has many human and historical values created by the exchange of different cultures.
The culture of the former Saigon and present-day HCM City shows an original characteristic of the Vietnamese culture and the
historical and geographical context of the country’s southern region.
An unforgettable trip of seeing the Mekong delta is to take a boat trip along Mekong river, you will pass paddy fields, water
buffaloes, tangled fruit orchards, and excited, waving children. In the delta’s town, the river remains the central focus of life, ferrying
travellers and goods to market and linking the delta with the world beyond. To explore the life of local people in Mekong Delta you take a few
days homestay in Cai Be, the floating market in Can Tho, and the hillside pagodas of Chau Doc. The itinerary provides a unique glimpse into the daily life
of the mighty deeper Mekong Delta.
