This is a new trend in the Mekong Delta's tourism.
Even though there are a few challenges, river tourism still has enormous potential. If it's utilized effectively, it will become a huge advantage for the Mekong Delta.
Comprised of dense green rice paddies and lazy, winding rivers, the Mekong Delta is like no other region in Vietnam. Whether firmly on land or floating with the river current, this region is flush with wildlife, historical sights, and incredible landscapes. The River of Nine Dragons, as locals know the area, is where the Mekong splinters into nine separate branches, crisscrossing low landscapes before reaching the sea. Life moves much more slowly here and is often surrounded by water.
