Tan Lap Floating Village Eco Day Tour in Ho Chi Minh City
Full description
This is a experience from Ho Chi Minh City, built around Bus/coach and Long An Province. It is run by SST Travel, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
A private day with a driver-guide is the way to see the most of a Japanese city or region in one day, because it removes the transfers between sights that eat a third of the day on public transport. Prices are usually per vehicle for up to a set number of guests rather than per person, and cover the car, fuel, tolls and the guide; entrance fees and lunch are paid as you go unless the listing says otherwise. Japanese guides are licensed for the work and typically punctual to the minute. Give the operator your priorities, and expect them to reorder the day around opening hours and crowds; that is what you are paying for.
The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off at the center of District 1, Round-trip transportation from Saigon, guide, Traditional wooden boat ride and Entrance fees to Tan Lap Floating Village. It does not cover Personal expenses, Tips for the guide and driver and Holiday surcharge applies, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
District 1. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with SST Travel before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Traveler Reviews
Our tour guide Sam was fantastic! The tour was accommodated for us despite there being only two people signed up and it made for a really personal and personalised tour! The visit to a small market was insightful and great to see the raising of animals and food sources. Then on to the ‘Floating Village’, this was great to get out of the city and explore the rural area. A subsidiary of the Mekong River, the boat journey, short kayak and walk was set amongst such beautiful and peaceful setting. The journey was slow at times due to the quality of road but still worth it and allows you to hear fro
Tan Lap is much much rustic & peaceful than the Mekong delta tour. Totally different experience. Huy our guide is very knowledgeable, patient, and keeps everyone together. We make plenty of rest room stop on the road so everyone travels comfortably. Take a tour with Huy. You’ll love him.
Es war ein supertoller Ganztagesausflug in die Natur, abseits der üblichen Touristenpfade. Unsere Tourguide Sam war so freundlich und bestens informiert, so dass wir einen wirklich persönlich Eindruck in das Leben, das Arbeiten und die positive freundliche Grundhaltung der Menschen in Vietnam erhalten haben. Wir konnten während der Tour viel über Flora und Fauna erfahren und haben Wasserlilien nicht nur sehen, sondern auch schmecken können. Die Tour bestand aus einer Motorbootfahrt, einer Rundwanderung, einer Tour im Ruderboot und einem wohlschmeckenden Mittagessen. Einzig verstörend war aus u
This was such a beautiful tour. We had an amazing experience, exploring an off-the-beaten track part of the Mekong. Our tour guide Hung was fantastic. He was a historian, a storyteller and a great companion all rolled into one.
the tour was really beautiful, we got to walk around the beautiful forest of Melaleuca trees and got a ride on both a peaceful canoe through the small canals and a motor boat. we climbed the observation tower and had amazing views over the vast forest, hearing all kinds of amazing birds. the lunch provided was very good.
The best part of this trip was our guide Huy. He made the trip interesting and fun. He was able to accommodate out dietary restrictions and make the overall experience pleasant. The Tan Lap Floating Village was interesting however scenery felt a little bit monotonous.
The floating village tour is above standard, it is worth more than what I have already paid. But it is exclusively for those who favor plants and natures. The arrangement was excellent and our guide was very professional as in describing and planning the intinerary for the tour. Thank you SSTTRAVEL for arranging this wonderful tour
It is a well-known tour, but if you’re looking for a healing tour with natural-friendly aspect then this is definitely what you should looking for. Our tour guide is really thorough about the history, especially about the the birth of the plants and places here. Lunch is fantastic as well, I am highly recommended it but it is better to travel in a small group
It seems fantastic to me, as someone who adores the outdoors! and I'd like to suggest to you all this tour offered by SST Travel! ⭐️⭐️The environmental reserve itself is breathtakingly gorgeous. It may be explored on foot by hiking along a concrete pathway that winds through the floating forest for several kilometres, or it can be explored by various kinds of boats that are propelled by cables, motors, or rowing. I am so grateful that I encountered SST Travel for the Tan Lap Day Tour and had an amazing experience although going against my original plan 🥳. My husband really enjoy that too! Also
I joined the 1-day tour of Tan Lap floating market. The tour will end and return to the city around 6 pm. You will participate in activities such as sampan boating and observe at the Observation Tower the colorful ponds of lotus and water lilies growing together, while in the dry season the landscape will be replaced by green rice fields. Guide Phil is very friendly and knowledgeable, and the operators are also friendly. This tour is very worth experiencing
The scenery of the floating village is truly beautiful. The tour guide provided a detailed introduction. Overall, everything is still great for those who want to explore nature.
Very hospitable tour guides! really appreciate that we took the less touristy place. met good people along the way!
