About this activity
Depart Ho Chi Minh City and head straight to our port in Can Gio - Vam Sat. Take a canoe trip along the immense river to go to the bat area. Here you’ll board a rowing boat to explore the natural landscape and its inhabitants such as the large fruit bats. A short trek will take you to the nearby bird reserve during the nesting season where a watchtower will allow you to observe thousands birds flying around. Have lunch at a local eco restaurant.
After lunch, keep walking to the natural crocodile lake. While out of the lake, occasionally, you may see wild monkeys jumping out from the forest.
Head back to Ho Chi Minh City.
(*) From April to October, during non-breeding season, we will learn more about salt production process.

I highly recommend this tour - it's a perfect getaway from busy Saigon and the guide's insights were more than interesting.
This trip is a retreat from the busy city to a quiet un-touristed area of the Mekong. That being said, there is not really that much to see or do although I did see the flying foxes rare bats in the bat preserve. Bird watching in the spring might be interesting but not now December. The trip is worth only about one half the cost.
