The Mekong Delta is pure magic: floating markets at sunrise, cycling through coconut groves, homestays with local families, and boat rides on tiny canals where you wave at smiling children. But the real magic? Every single day you’ll be surrounded by other independent, open-minded solo travelers who chose exactly the same adventure as you.

Legend Travel Group has been running daily small-group Vietnam Tours in the Mekong Delta since 2008. Our groups are intentionally kept to 6–14 people – the perfect size to make genuine friendships that often last long after the trip ends.

1. 2-Day Mekong Delta Homestay & Floating Markets

Daily departure from Ho Chi Minh City → Cai Be floating market → homestay dinner with 12 other solos → cycling & rowing boat adventure → back to HCMC with lifelong friends.

2. 3-Day Deluxe Mekong Delta & Cai Rang Floating Market

The most popular choice! Stay on a private island lodge, cook Vietnamese food together, visit honey farms, and end each night with sunset beers on the river – surrounded by your new solo tribe.

3. 4-Day Deep Mekong Delta & Vinh Long Island

For those who want more time to bond: bike rides, village walks, karaoke nights with locals, and plenty of moments to share stories under the stars.

4. Mekong Delta → Phu Quoc Island Combo

Finish your Mekong adventure with a flight to Vietnam’s most beautiful island – many solos continue traveling together!
