Overview

This tour will provide us a wide range of experiences – from learning traditional fishing techniques to paddling the strange and unique Vietnamese rounded bamboo basket boats while exploring the now tranquil coconut-palm flanked waterways of a past war.

• Start with a welcome snack and bottled water, coconut, and fruit juice.
• Then get settled into a bamboo basket boat and hear a brief introduction about the history of the Cam Thanh River, including the role it played during wartime. Learn to paddle this traditional Vietnamese vessel and join a playful basket-boat race against local fishermen who instruct you in the art of round-net and cast-net fishing.
• Try to catch crab and coconut mussels and make tools from coconut leaves as you explore the Bay Mau coconut forest. Relaxation with traditional net fishing techniques, taking a boat trip around the lake.
• Enjoy the folk game: play tug, beating pots, punching water balls. Resting and relaxing here.
• After immersing in these hands-on activities, you will return to local restaurant for a fresh seafood menu lunch or dinner. Mineral water is provided to accompany the meal.
• After meal, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
