Discovery Cruises
The Bassac are the perfect means to discover the Mekong delta as part of a journey in Vietnam.
You may join in on any discovery trip, as long as there is availability.
Discovery cruises span one or more nights, and are focused on exploring the countryside of the Mekong delta: a guided promenade or cycling tour in the unprepared countryside with an opportunity to stop at a farmer's in the afternoon, and a visit of the destination in the morning.
We run every day between Cái Bè and Cần Thơ, either way,
and often the Discovery Loop, from Cần Thơ.
