What to do for first-time travelers in Can Tho
Can Tho is the largest city in Mekong Delta. It’s a buzzing town with a lively waterfront lined with sculpted gardens, an appealing blend of narrow backstreets and wide boulevards, and perhaps the greatest concentration of foreigners in the delta.

 
It is also the perfect base for nearby floating markets, the major draw for tourists who come here to boat along the many canals and rivers leading out of town.

    The biggest floating market in the Mekong Delta, Cai Rang is just 6 km from Can Tho in the direction of Soc Trang. The market is best around 6 am to 7 am, and it's well worth getting here early to beat the boatloads of tourists and the heat. This is a wholesale market, so look at what's tied to the long pole above the boat to figure out what they're selling to smaller traders.

    This market specifically trades fruits, agricultural products within the area. Tourist should go there once for shopping or enjoy a traditional market on the river with the crowded and busy atmosphere here. This will be a very strange and interesting experience on your tour.
