Itinerary

  • Can Gio Mangrove Biosphere Reserve

    Mangrove is the most popular plant in Can Gio Island. This kind of plant is found only in the brackish water like in the estuaries. Due to the specific living environment, the stilt root structure of mangrove helps the plant to absorb oxygen as well as nutrition from the tide. Not only does mangrove help to protect soil at shorelines from landslides but the mangrove forest is also the home of many sea creatures, some of which bring great economic values to the locals. There are two ways for you to discover the mangrove forest: on road and on boat. You can walk along the curving roads, under the shades of thousands of mangroves, or you can sit on a small boat to follow the canals to every corner of the forest. A peaceful atmosphere with fresh air is the feeling that all tourists will have when discovering Can Gio Mangrove Forest.

  • Can Gio Mangrove Biosphere Reserve

    Monkey Island Monkey Island is the next thing that you should explore in Can Gio Biosphere Reserve. Most monkeys on this island are quite friendly and cute. The monkeys agilely move on the trees, run on the ground, move toward visitors and look at them with curious eyes. The monkeys there are strictly preserved, so you should obey some rules when interacting with these monkeys such as keeping the suitable distance and not feeding the monkey. Some monkeys might be quite aggressive, so you should not try to touch them.

    Guerrilla Base in Sac Forest During the Vietnam War, Can Gio Island was a revolutionary base of the North Vietnam soldiers. They utilized the potential obstacles of the forest to protect themselves from the American army as well as prepare for the jungle battles. Being seriously destroyed during the war time, the base still exists today as a witness for the fierce but resilient war of the Vietnamese.

    Enjoying Local Foods After a long trip to discover Can Gio Island, you might feel hungry and want to find a restaurant to have dinner with your friends or family. Coming to Can Gio, don’t forget to have a try on fresh seafood there. The seafood is exploited on the local beach which contains all the flavor of nature in Can Gio Island. The dishes that you should try in Can Gio Island include cuttle-fish, grilled oysters, steamed shrimp, seafood noodles, jellyfish salad and many kinds of shellfish.

    Crocodile in Vam Sat Forest Vam Sat Forest is a preservation area which is the home of monkeys, crocodiles and even bats. There you will have an opportunity to feed the crocodiles from a safe distance. The crocodiles that live in brackish water may make you feel a little bit scared, but that feeling will immediately disappear when you join the intriguing activities with your friends in Vam Sat Forest.

    Can Gio Beach Can Gio Beach is one of the most attractive destinations on Can Gio Island. Unlike most beaches in Vietnam with white sand beaches, the color of sand there is black due to the alluvium from the river’s current. In the afternoon, you can swim, fly kites with local children and admire the glorious sunset on Can Gio Beach. What would be more satisfying than enjoying the last tranquil moments of the day on a wonderful beach?

Great day out

Published on Jan, 2025

The variety of activities on this tour was great (and nice to get out of the madness of Ho Chi Minh City). We enoyed a ferry ride, boat ride thru the mangroves, feeding peanuts to the monkey's, nice lunch, short walk on the beach. Warning: Cannot wear any glasses or hats at monkeys-they will steal them from you. Take your swimming costumes to swim in pool at lunch venue. These things were not told to us prior to the tour.

Day in Can Gio

Published on Nov, 2024

We very much enjoyed our day in Can Gio. Jane kept us entertained with her humorous banter and interesting information. The food was delicious and the company great. It was lovely to meet everyone else on the trip from different parts of the world. Our driver was also excellent. Thank you for a great day out.
