Dragon Eyes Cruise Overview

The road trip from Saigon to Can Tho takes approx. 4 hours, to Cai Be approx. 2 hours. This is why on odd dates we have to leave Saigon 1 hour earlier than on even dates at 7am.
In the morning we pick you up at your hotel in Saigon and take you to Can Tho or Cai Be. Can Tho is the fifth largest city in Vietnam, and the largest city in the Mekong Delta. It is noted for its floating market, rice-paper-making village, and picturesque rural canals.  The most unique and natural in architecture of Can Tho is the canal network. Canals play an important role as “street”; it brings the simple and poetic beauty to Can Tho. You board the Dragon Eyes Cruise around noon. After a refreshing welcome drink we show you our on-board facilities and your cozy cabin. As lunch is served, the Mekong Eyes starts cruising. Sit back and watch the fantastic scenery and the daily life of the Mekong people. In the afternoon you can disembark for a guided leisurely stroll through the village and the surrounding fruit orchards or rice fields. Meet the friendly locals and taste the local produce and fruits. Get back Dragon Eyes Cruise and enjoy a drink at the bar or relax on deck as the sun sets over the magnificent water landscape. The Mekong Dragon Eyes Cruise will anchor for the night. The day ends with a delicious on-board dinner.
