Tour itinerary:

• Our tour guide picks you up at your hotel and heads to Can Gio, otherwise known as “Monkey Island”.
• On arrival, we visited the mangrove forest to see over 1,000 monkeys living there. You also can feed and take photos with many monkeys surrounding and climbing on your shoulder.
• Continue with a short walk to alligator farm, where local people conserve many huge alligators from the “American war” and you can try “alligator fishing” (optional). Then take speed boats to “Sac” guerilla camp built in deep jungle. Today the camp has become a major tourist attraction giving the visitor a unique experience and a feel of what jungle life in the war must have been like. 
• We will then stop at a local seafood market selling various kinds of fresh seafood regarding octopus, lobster, ray, etc and dried foods. There, enjoy a welcome drink (sugar cane juice) before having Vietnamese style lunch at a beach resort, where we are at leisure for swimming and sight-seeing.
• We drive another 2 hours back to Hồ Chí Minh city and drop you at your hotel or somewhere in District 1 on request. End of services.
