U Minh Thuong Forest and Pineapple Villages

About this activity

Our guide will warmly welcome you for a scenic three-hour drive to U Minh Thuong National Park, passing endless rice paddies that showcase Vietnam’s agricultural success. Once a poverty-stricken area, it now contributes 90% of the nation’s rice exports, ranking Vietnam among the top three rice exporters worldwide.

At the park, start with a peaceful boat ride through tranquil canals, where you’ll spot colorful birds like black coucals, kingfishers, and purple swamphens. The forest, blanketed in water ferns, immerses you in nature, while playful monkeys add charm. A climb to the observation tower offers stunning panoramic views.

Next, explore the hidden Pineapple Villages. A 12-km bike ride reveals farmers growing pineapples, rice, and coconuts, while crossing rivers on monkey bridges and traveling by boat. This authentic journey offers a glimpse into rural life and will be a highlight of your trip.
