Generally, the temperatures remain relatively high (above 30 Celsius Degree) all year round.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To be specific, the weather in Vinh Long can be divided into 2 distinctive seasons: the dry season and the wet season. The dry season begins in December and lasts till the end of April of the next year. This period features clear blue skies and little to no rainfall. The weather is perfect for outdoor activities like biking and experiencing the local life. However, as the humidity would be exceptionally low, it might be a little bit unpleasant to spend too much time outside.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The rest of the year is when the wet (or rainy) season rules the world. From May to the end of November, Vinh Long experiences lots of rain, with the heaviest volume falling between June and July. These are also the hottest months of the year with high humidity. During that period, Vinh Long in particular and the Mekong Delta in general step into the fruit seasons, with plenty of fresh tropical fruits in their orchards get ripe and are ready to be harvested.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7328\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7328\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7328 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/vinh-long-vietnam-e1573976082743.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7328\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Lux Travel DMC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">From September to November, the whole region turns into the floating season. It is the ideal time for a rowboat trip along the canals and rivers of the Southwest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To sum up, what is the best time to visit Vinh Long? It must be the later months of the rainy season, which is between September and November. The rainfall starts to decrease, while the rivers and canals are full of water, making it ideal for boat travel.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_How_to_get_to_Vinh_Long\"><\/span>2. How to get to Vinh Long?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Where is Vinh Long Vietnam? This province is situated just about 135 km from Ho Chi Minh City\u00a0(Saigon). It takes more than 2 hours to transfer from Saigon to Vinh Long City via the National Road 1A and My Thuan Bridge.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Regarding the means of transportation, you can catch a bus from the city\u2019s station to reach there. However, the buses are always crowded, thus it is not a very wise option to opt for. Another way to travel to Vinh Long is to catch a van or shuttle bus from a travel agency. You will have your seat and the driver will be more careful when driving.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><div class=\"su-youtube su-u-responsive-media-yes\"><iframe width=\"640\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jzH1J1J7Cd4?\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture\" title=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The most luxury and convenient vehicle to go with is the private car. If you book a private tour at a luxury tour operator, they will pick you up with their luxury private car. In this way, visitors don\u2019t have to share spaces with strangers or worry about the carefulness of the driver.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">What\u2019s more, many travelers prefer renting a motorbike and ride it themselves. It is a great way to behold the beautiful scenery along the way, but it\u2019s quite dangerous an option if you are not familiar with driving a motorbike as well as the weird transportation \u201crules\u201d of Vietnamese people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/tour-item\/exploring-mekong-delta-on-lamant-cruise-in-style-3-days\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#000000;background-color:#faba40;border-color:#c89534;border-radius:0px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#000000;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#fccf7a;border-radius:0px;text-shadow:none\"> DISCOVERY NOW<\/span><\/a>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Things_to_do_in_Vinh_Long_Vietnam\"><\/span>3.

Its charming beauty still awaits people\u2019s exploration. So, what to do during a Vinh Long Vietnam tour?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Often, Vinh Long is included in the day trip itinerary to the Mekong Delta from Saigon such as the 2-day Cai Be &#8211; Vinh Long discovery and the like.

Surrounded by the Co Chien River and Ham Luong River, it is an attractive destination for Mekong Delta tours.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An Binh Island appeals tourists with its evergreen fruit orchards that grow and cultivate several kinds of tropical fruits like rambutan, grapefruit, mango, durian, and so on. There are small canals that connect the gardens, where you can go aboard the local boats to reach different parts of the orchards to get lost in its awe-inspiring greenery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Traveling to An Binh island, tourists are also able to experience the life of the Southwestern people in the most \u201cauthentic\u201d ways: try their farm works. You can go picking the fruits, fertilize the plants, catch fish at the canals, and so on. Moreover, tourists can join in their traditional games like wooden clog racing, monkey bridge crossing, bag jumping, etc. If you love thrilling games, try crocodile-fishing or ride the ostrich. It is of much fun, so don\u2019t miss it out!<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"b_Take_a_boat_tour_through_the_narrow_canals_of_Mekong_Delta\"><\/span>b.

With a dense network of canals and ditches that are still less known to mass tourism, Vinh Long cannot be a better place for this activity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here, you will board on the wooden rowboat to glide along the small irrigation canals amidst the bushy rows of willow trees to reach different corners of the southwestern gardens. You can also visit the bonsai garden and the fishing farm to see how the locals\u2019 daily life goes on.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After finishing the boat tour in Vinh Long Vietnam, tourists can walk or ride along the narrow roads across the orchards and stop by a leaf-roofed hut for a short break and listen to the \u201cDon Ca Tai Tu\u201d &#8211; the traditional folk music invented by Mekong Delta farmers. Just leave all the stress and sorrow of the life outside and immerse yourself in the tranquility and peace that this place offers.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"c_Visit_Tra_On_Floating_Market\"><\/span>c.

If so, the floating market is where you should head your Vinh Long tour towards.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Very soon in the morning, hundreds of boats and sampans from different areas gather there to trade goods. The market is full of noisy sounds and the laughter of both the sellers and buyers. The sale happens quite quickly because the price is very reasonable and the customers do not need to bargain. It is the typical cultural identities of the southwestern people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Another appeal of this market is the way people advertise their products. Due to the distinctive feature of the floating market that the boats stay extremely close to each other, it is really hard for the buyers to approach the boat. Additionally, the goods are put in the cabin, making it difficult to find the items they are looking for. Therefore, the sellers hang the samples of their goods on tall bamboo poles so that the customers can easily see even from a far distance. If the items are sold out, the samples will be taken down. That method is called \u201cb\u1eb9o h\u00e0ng\u201d in Vietnamese.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Coming there, not only can tourists feel the ecstatic vibe of a local market but you also have the opportunity to sample the rustic delicacies that are sold directly on the boat. Drinks, snacks, fruits, and the like are abundant to shop, too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A visit to Tra On Floating Market will offer you a close glimpse at the life of the lovely people who survive their lives on the waters.

Its culinary culture is exceptionally rich, also. If you are spending some days in this land, there are dishes that you shouldn\u2019t miss sampling.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"a_%E2%80%9CCa_tai_tuong_chien_xu%E2%80%9D_Deep-Fried_Giant_Gourami\"><\/span>a. \u201cC\u00e1 tai t\u01b0\u1ee3ng chi\u00ean x\u00f9\u201d (Deep-Fried Giant Gourami)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When it comes to fish dishes, Mekong Delta is second to none. And \u201cc\u00e1 tai t\u01b0\u1ee3ng chi\u00ean x\u00f9\u201d, or deep-fried elephant-ear fish) is among the most iconic delicacies of this land.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To make this dish, a whole gourami fish is deep-fried at a high temperature in a big pan. As its scales and fins are not removed, the well-cooked fish turns out to be exceptionally crispy outside. In contrast, the meat inside is tender, sweet, and fragrant. To give out such a great result, the chef needs to be skillful and meticulous when frying the fish.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The authentic way to enjoy that dish is to wrap the fish meat in a rice paper together with different kinds of herbs. Then dip it into the bowl of \u201cm\u1eafm n\u00eam\u201d (fish sauce) &#8211; the traditional dipping sauce of the locals. The taste might be a little bit sharp at first, but it turns out to be heavenly tasty afterward. Once you have tried 1 roll, then you\u2019ll definitely want more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><div class=\"su-youtube su-u-responsive-media-yes\"><iframe width=\"640\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QQcKMgOsvik?\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture\" title=\"\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"b_%E2%80%9CLau_cua_dong%E2%80%9D_Field_Crab_Hotpot\"><\/span>b. \u201cL\u1ea9u cua \u0111\u1ed3ng\u201d (Field Crab Hotpot)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The field crab hotpot is the iconic dish of Vinh Long Vietnam. As its name states, the main ingredient of this hotpot is the tiny field crabs that can be easily found in the rice paddies all over Vietnam. Small as it might seem, this crab composes rich nutrients, especially calcium. Furthermore, its meat is said to be a great detox thing that could dissolve blood and strengthen the tendons, and aid digestion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The crabs used in \u201cl\u1ea9u cua \u0111\u1ed3ng\u201d must be fresh and have firm meat and lots of roe. The locals will remove the roe before crushing the crabs and cook it in a hot pot. You can then add toppings into the pot to make a complete \u201cl\u1ea9u\u201d. Apart from meat, shrimp, fish, and crab, Mekong Delta people love to add their fresh veggies into the hotpot, namely the \u201choa b\u00ed\u201d (zucchini blossoms), \u201crau trai\u201d (Asiatic dayflower), and \u201cb\u00f4ng \u0111i\u00ean \u0111i\u1ec3n\u201d (sesbania sesban flowers). No matter what you add, this hotpot can still easily whet your appetite thanks to the strong aroma of the crab, the sweetness of the broth, and the varied taste of different herbs and veggies.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This dish is the highlighted summer food, but it tastes amazing if you try it in winter, also.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"c_Banh_xeo_hen_Vung_Liem_Vinh_Long\"><\/span>c.

In this place, people make that pancake with mussels.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Freshwater mussels appear in several dishes of the southwestern people such as mussel rice, mussel soup, and of course, \u201cb\u00e1nh x\u00e8o\u201d. Vung Liem people use it as the main ingredient for their special crepe, altogether with the fresh naturally-grown herbs and veggies that they collect from their gardens. These things bring along different flavors to the cake: sour, spicy, and acrid. Combining with the sweetness of the mussel, the fat of the pancake, and the sweetness and sourness of the dipping sauce, they have made up an excellent cake that could steal every eater\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Where_to_stay_in_Vinh_Long\"><\/span>5.

For those wanting to get served with the luxurious service, this can\u2019t be a better choice to opt for.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Still, many people who are eager to get exposed to the local life choose to have a farm stay with the host family in Vinh Long Vietnam. There are several homestays in An Binh Island and other tourist attractions, allowing travelers to stay there overnight. There\u2019s no big hotel there, just the normal traditional southwestern house with a lovely host family. Not only can you sleep over there but you can also join their meals or follow them to do the farm works. It\u2019s a kind of eco-tourism, so if you love to harmonize with nature as well as get closer to the villagers, go for this option.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxtraveldmc.com\/tour-item\/vietnam-and-cambodia-water-way-8-days\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#000000;background-color:#faba40;border-color:#c89534;border-radius:0px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#000000;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#fccf7a;border-radius:0px;text-shadow:none\"> DISCOVERY NOW<\/span><\/a>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_The_bottom_lines\"><\/span>6.
