Visit begins with a canoe tour of the site by way of tunnel-like streams cutting through the dense jungle with the in-house guides/paddlers wearing their black Viet Cong pyjamas. Yes kitsch but fun, though the warnings to not get out and walk are neither! Yes, seriously rickety canoes which look like they date to the 70′s but we’ve never fallen in yet and anyway there’s only about a 1ft of water, though we wouldn’t like to say what might be lurking in those murky shallows!?
When you’ve completed the atmospheric boat trip and left a bit of  a tip for your Viet Cong guide you can then do the loop backwards by following a concrete pathway through the swamp which allows for a different perspective and closer look at some of the dug-outs and bunkers. each way’s probably roughly 30 minutes allowing for time to linger.
Cai Rang Floating Market Can Tho City
Together with Cai Be and Phung Hiep, Cai Rang Floating Market in Can Tho City is one of the three biggest in the Mekong Delta. The shops and stalls at these markets are boats of different sizes. Cai Rang Floating Market is open all day but it is busiest from sunrise to about 9am. The main items sold there are farm products and specialties of Cai Rang Town, Chau Thanh District and neighboring areas. Every boat has a long upright pole at its bow on which samples of the goods for sale are hung. Sellers do not have to cry out about their goods because their goods can be seen in a distance and their cries would not be heard in the vastness of the river and the noise of boat engines. Small boats that sell beer, soft drinks and wine go among the other boats to serve market-goers and visitors. The most common goods sold are fruit. Big boats are the wholesalers, selling fruit to dealers from neighboring provinces. Each boat is loaded with plenty of seasonal goods. Activities at the market are also an occasion for tourists to study the cultural aspects of southerners. To visit Cai Rang Floating Market, visitors can join a tour of the Mekong Delta. On the way to Can Tho, visitors can stop to visit My Tho and take a boat trip to visit orchards, bee farms and coconut candy establishments in Ben Tre. Visitors can also explore Can Tho on their own by taking a coach. In Can Tho, besides Cai Rang Floating Market, Visitors can visit other places such as Can Tho Market, Ninh Kieu Quay, Binh Thuy Temple, and private tourist gardens. In these gardens, visitors can walk, breathe fresh air, enjoy different kinds of fruits and countryside specialties and stay at nice guest houses in the shade of trees.
Located in the Gulf of Thailand, Phu Quoc island lies 120 kms from Rạch Giá city and nearly 540 kms from Laem Chabang, Thailand. Roughly triangular in shape, the island is 50 kms long north to south and 25 kms east to west in the north at its widest
Phu Quoc means something different to everybody. Known as Koh Tral by the Cambodians, it is also referred to as the 'Island of 99 mountains', and also 'The Emerald Island' for it's bountiful natural treasures, but for visitors it's known simply as paradise
The tunnels of Củ Chi are an immense network of connecting underground tunnels located in the Củ Chi district of Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Vietnam, and are part of a much larger network of tunnels that underlie much of the country. The Củ Chi tunnels were the location of several military campaigns during the Vietnam War, and were the Viet Cong's base of operations for the Tết Offensive in 1968.
The tunnels were used by Viet Cong guerrillas as hiding spots during combat, as well as serving as communication and supply routes, hospitals, food and weapon caches and living quarters for numerous guerrilla fighters. The tunnel systems were of great importance to the Viet Cong in their resistance to American forces, and helped achieve ultimate military success.
