Return to land and cycle along quiet lanes to a homestay on the outskirts of Can Tho. Spending an evening with a local family, learning about their customs and way of life, is sure to be a highlight of your Vietnam family tour.

To reach Nha Trang, the final stop on your Vietnam family tour, you’ll travel by bike and raft through some of the south’s most beautiful scenery. The downhill ride takes you from the highlands to the coast where you’ll raft on the Cai River to Nha Trang, an exhilerating day in the great outdoors.

A day spent relaxing on the sandy beaches of Nha Trang is the perfect conclusion to your South Vietnam family holiday. Whether returning home or continuing with a trip to the north, you will be left with fabulous memories of the people and places of southern Vietnam and an unforgettable family vacation.
