Vietnam Adventure: Soak up U Minh Thuong National Park- the emerging site of nature-lovers

Vietnam Travel Depot and its member vietnamjeeptours.com have launched an impressive tour program of exploring the vast freshwater wetland, U Minh Thuong National Park in the Mekong Delta.

U Minh Thuong belongs to Kien Giang province, about 300km in the southwest of Ho Chi Minh City metropolis, which is recognized as one of three highest priority sites for wetland conservation by its outstanding values of biodiversity.

The park is an ideal destination for visitors who have passion of the nature and love ecosystem. The tour is actually a deep view of Mekong Delta, a chance to immerse yourself by an on-water visit into one of the few primary forests where you can discover as much as it was. It is home to a 44-hectare bird sanctuary with more than 70,000 birds and the presence of 185 bird species where you can get close to see their bird-life such as nest setting, breeding and feeding…Beside is a diversity of flora with 252 species, especially is the a dense cajuput forest. Of these are endangered and have global conservation concerns.

Nature lovers can pick out this discovery tour as an extension part after their Mekong Delta visit and even keep traveling to Cambodia with a stopover in Chau Doc. Or else choose a beach relaxation in Phu Quoc Island after stopping at the neighbour town Rach Gia.

How to get there: 

- Around 300km from Saigon, travel by car down to the Mekong Delta area. The trip takes you around seven to eight hours drive crossing most of the delta provinces such as Vinh Long, Can Tho, and Dong Thap. Take two river ferries on the way

- By airplane from Saigon at 6.45 AM to Rach Gia (50 minutes flight) then by car from the airport to the forest (60 km) with around 2 hour drive.
