Ben Tre is a province located in the Mekong Delta of Southern Vietnam, about 85km to the south of Ho Chi Minh City. It is bordered by Tien Giang Province on the north, Tra Vinh on the south, and Vinh Long on the west. Ben Tre is split into three islands of Bao, Minh and An Hoa by the four Tien Giang River branches: Ba Lai, My Tho, Co Chieu, and Ham Luong Rivers, contributing to its ecological system.
The deep South of Vietnam is a land far removed from the hustle and bustle of its cities. It offers a natural escape that encompasses the laidback atmosphere of rural Southeast Asia, through both the ancient Mekong Delta, the historical Cu Chi Tunnels, the beautiful Cai Rang Floating Market and the island paradise of Phu Quoc. Ho Chi Minh City & Phu Quoc Tour Beach Break gives you a chance to see the historic origins of southern Vietnamese culture upon its waterways, in its jungles, along its rice paddies to the golden sands of its fabulous beaches.
