My Tho is located on the Northern banks of the Mekong river and is the closest town in the Delta area to Ho Chi Minh City, about 2 hours drive away. In the center of the town, close to the river, there is a large market that sells home accessories. Around the My Tho area you will find a maze of small canals that can be explored and four famous islands (Dragon, Phoenix, Turtle and Unicorn island). Other places to visit are the longan plantations. Return to My Tho by motorboat. Afterward we head to Can Tho to spend the night at the hotel. ( home stays are hightly recommended ).
