Exploring Vinh Long on a restaurant boat

Travelers on Song Tien Restaurant Boat will have a chance to discover the unique beauty of Vinh Long and enjoy diverse foods

Vinh Long is located between the Tien and Hau rivers and likened to the Mekong Delta in miniature. It is the land of crisscross waterways, islets and orchards of four-season fruit trees. It is also famous for succulent fruits such as Nam Roi pomelo and Tam Binh thick-skinned orange, which are exported to many countries around the world.

In addition, Vinh Long is usually associated with An Binh Islet, Van Thanh Temple, Tien Chau and Phuoc Hau
pagodas, My Thuan Bridge and Vinh Sang Farm.

An Binh Islet amid the Tien River is a destination suitable for ecological tourism. Tourists can take a boat ride to discover orchards, enjoy don ca tai tu (southern amateur opera), taste local specialties, and join in home-stay to experience daily activities at local residents’ houses. This kind of tourism is favored by quite a few international tourists when they travel to this region.

Festivities in Vinh Long are fairly diverse, which enable tourists to take part in Ky Yen Festival, Chol Chnam Thmay (New Year) and Donta festivals of Khmer people.

Song Tien Restaurant Boat under Saigon-Vinh Long Tourism Joint Stock Company managed by Saigontourist is currently one of the big tour operators in Vinh Long.

Song Tien Restaurant Boat is docked at a wharf by the Song Tien Park in the center of Vinh Long, about 5km from My Thuan Bridge. The boat is 7m high, 10m wide and 40m long and can accommodate 350 guests. It is designed elegantly and airily, and is equipped with all conveniences for a tourist boat, such as the main deck for serving breakfast and drinks, the first floor for serving food and the top floor for café.

Coming to Song Tien Restaurant Boat, besides being welcomed by young attentive serving staff, guests have a chance to enjoy specialties of the Mekong Delta prepared from prawns and fish, such as prawn steamed with beer, sand goby, plotosus canius, loach and eel, to name just a few. Especially, hot pots in the flavor of the countryside will satisfy various gastronomic demands of gourmets.

From 8 p.m. to 9: 30 p.m. on every Saturday and Sunday, guests can have a view of the Tien River, and contemplate famous My Thuan Bridge in the Mekong Delta.

In addition, the restaurant boat provides services for tourist groups, wedding parties, meetings, birthday parties and conventions, accompanied by attractive promotional programs that are offered to guests booking parties of more than 15 tables. The boat can combine sightseeing on the Tien River and enjoying delicious food in a party upon request.
