A quick glance only

Expectations were not high and actually we booked this tour only because our first choice with the Cai be Princess was not available anymore. It was a quick glance without any depth into the region of Cai Be. The Floating Market was nearly over, a lot of shopping place visits ashore, an eerie show of traditional music and dance in a backyard. The local lunch was good, the boat was nice. The bus was far too small and not suitable for Western sized travelers. The guide did a good job.
