Trip to Mekong

Oleh kerana the first 2 trips datang ke HCM, tak melawat Mekong, this time kena try jugak lah. So, we decided to take a trip to Mekong on the 3rd day. Baca dalam blog memang banyak sangat package dan macam-macam harga, ada yang mahal, ada yang murah depending on the package.

 

I decided that we would take a package that would cost not more than USD12, staff hotel ada offer package to Mekong for USD25/Pax, okay..wayyy to expensive. We decided to walk around the area and cari travel agencies and compare prices, and we took a package with Candy Travel for USD12/ RM53/Pax/ VND270,000 ( pakej ni dia provide non-halal food, and since we do not want to take lunch, they would change with fruits), as usual wajib minta diskaun, so she gave us VND250,00/Pax.  So, agent ni akan pick up kat hotel dengan coach dan transfer untuk naik bas di office dia orang. So ramai la passengers lain, kebetulan our group ramai jugak Malaysians.

On the way bus akan stop di so called R&R for toilet stops and makan. Top picture yang depan tu our guide (tak ingat pulak namanya apa).

Atas bot di Sungai Mekong. Trip Mekong ni  memang banyak kali turun naik bot, sampai naik pening.

Melawat tempat jualan madu kelulut, sebelum tu dijamu dengan makanan yang di sebelah kiri sekali tu. 5 botol madu kelulut = RM100 dapat free 1, maknanya dapat 6 botol. 

Below Middle : Ada persembahan nyanyian, lepas habis persembahan, sila bagi tips ya..jangan kedekut ,nampak tu ada bakul merah atas meja.hehehe..

Below Right : Boleh makan buah-buahan tempatan sambil dengar persembahan nyanyian.

 Kami di bawa melawat ke bengkel membuat coconut candy, bau memang sedap, rasa tak sure pulak sebab tak rasa pun.....Boleh beli yang dah packing siap. 

It was a really tiring trip. We arrived HCM around 5.30 pm and the bus dropped us at Ben Tanh Market area and we walked back to our hotel. Okay, for my next trip to HCM (not sure when), I would consider a trip to Chu Chi Tunnel.
