One of the most exciting highlights of the Joy Journeys Mekong Delta tour is the visit to Cai Rang Floating Market, the largest floating market in the region. Here, you’ll have the chance to witness firsthand the bustling activity of vendors and shoppers as they exchange goods and haggle for the best prices. With a maximum group size of 10 people, you can be sure that you’ll receive personalized attention from your guide and have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and interact with locals.

Joy Journeys also places a strong emphasis on supporting local communities and promoting sustainable tourism practices.
