Les Rives Full Day Mekong Delta Tour

One of the highlights of our journey to Vietnam a few seasons ago, was taking a full day guided tour with 🌾 Les Rives Tours from – Ho Chi Minh City.

My son and I enjoyed a wonderful 🛥 boat tour, to the Cu Chi Tunnels.

As well, my daughter and her boyfriend traveled to Vietnam and also enjoyed a full day tour, taking the – 🌴 Les Rives Mekong Delta Tour.

Les Rives Tour Guide

They had a fantastic day with an exceptional tour guide, who they said, made the trip even that more exciting!  

Below, is a glimpse of what to expect on this tour, and some of their pictures they sent to me afterwards.

About The Mekong Delta In Vietnam

Les Rives Mekong Delta Tour

The Mekong Delta, which is also referred to as – 🐉 The Nine Dragon River Delta. This is because the Delta is created by nine adjoining rivers.  

The delta comprises a vast triangular plain of approximately 55,000 square kilometers and of which, approximately 16,000 square kilometers of the inner delta are located in Cambodia.

The remaining 39,000 square kilometers, make up the southern tip of Vietnam.

River Homes Mekong Delta

In Vietnam, the Mekong Delta Region is intensively developed for 🌾 agriculture. In fact, the Delta provides the country with about a third of its annual food crop.

This huge land formation consists of 🌾 paddy fields and hills.

It’s numerous rivers, streams and canals are buzzing with activity including; boats, homes, floating markets and much more!
