Early morning start, but worth it.

It’s a site worth seeing. We left Can Tho at around 5:45am ish. After a nice river ride seeing the sun coming up, lots of other boats we arrived at a very busy floating market. It’s so interesting, fun and crazy, with lots going on....More

Complete rubbish

Travelled from HCMC to Can Tho mainly to see the floating market. Turned out to be an utter disappointment. There is no "market" to speak of. We were approached by 2 or 3 boats at arbitrary locations along the river trying to peddle us goods...More

An awesome experience

Sailing down the river and feeling the fresh wind, taking a look at local people in their business. But honestly, the sun was burning hot, you should visit this market early ^^

Touristy

The choices are geared more towards the tourists than with the locals. It is better to just skim through this floating market, then proceed and spend more time in the Phong Dien Market.

A very impressive visit which is strictly by boat. Individuals can't purchase as this is to supply restaurants a d hote

Place is a floating zoo but boat operators know how to get around safely. Very interesting and something you'll probably never see again. Well worth the time and experience.

Very disappointing

Booked a two-day tour from HCMC to Can Tho. The highlight would be the floating market Cai Rang but this was very disappointing. Can't recommend anyone to make such a long journey for that. Only a few boats that want to sell fruit or coconuts...More

Get up early!

We're told locals start around 3-4am at the market so if you're showing up after 7am, the activity is already starting to dissipate. We left hour hotel and were on the water by 6am and stopped for Bun Bo Hue noodles and managed to find...More
