The Mekong Delta is the lower part of the legendary Mekong River. From the Tibetan plateau, it runs through China, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia before coming to the South of Việt Nam. Its name in our land is “Nine Dragon River” because it’s divided into thousands of intermingled branches and rivers, and creates nine river mouths before drifting out to the Sea like the nine happy dragons of mythology. This package will introduce you to one of the world’s most brilliant cultures with friendly and hospitable people, amazing scenery, tasty food, and thousands of smiles.
