In the afternoon, you can choose a shore visit or a short cycling tour. Back on the ship, enjoy a complimentary drink, watch the sunset, and savour dinner while cruising the Mang Thit River. The night is spent anchored on the Mang Thit River.

After boarding at noon, enjoy lunch on the deck as you head to Cho Lach on the Tien Giang river. The ship enters the Chợ Lách canal, offering a unique view of river life.
