It’s like some scenes in natural documentaries. When arrive at Ben Tre, a place that is 80 km from Ho Chi Minh City, you can feel a surreal and wild South West Vietnam.
Let’s gently glide on waves, along the water coconut path that curves into arches, which creates a naturalistic “tunnel”. Meanwhile, you can occasionally hear birds chirping, and the gurgling of the water flowing downstream.
All of this amazing scenery is included in just one hour. Although it is not a long time, it is sufficient to provide you with a sense of relaxation and an interesting experience.
If you haven’t footed on a kayak before, the first step to this kind of rowing boat could be a bit “amusing”. You would be a little shaken and precarious but don’t be afraid, your tour guide and rowing men are there to help and ensure you are safe the whole trip.
Let’s wear a life vest and conical hat, and enjoy the ride. If you wish to experience the rowing-boat feeling, all you have to do is tell us and the rowing men will give you the paddle. They’re friendly, hospitable, and always happy to help, so don’t worry about speaking your mind.
Once enter the small canal, you’ll feel the cool breeze and the touch of sunlight on your face. While flowing along the water, the beautiful scenery will be right in front of your eyes with lush river nature and pictures of locals cutting coconuts or catching fish.
After that, let’s go ashore and walk along a village path to visit Uncle Luu’s house. He is a native farmer, just have a sit, chit chat, drink tea with him, and listen to him tell the story of his life so you can get a closer look at how the natives live in the area.
Finally, let’s Aunt Five (she is the fifth of her siblings, so we call her “Five”), she’ll show you how to make rice paper and enjoy pieces of hot homemade rice paper.
