About Us
A touch of real life.
Some places invite you to explore. The Mekong invites you to slow down, look a little closer, and stay a little longer.
Here, life unfolds along waterways, beneath coconut palms, and around tables where conversation comes as naturally as the food. A familiar greeting, a quiet riverside morning, or a story shared along the way can become the moment you remember most.
At The Mekong Journey, these everyday moments are at the heart of how we want you to experience the Mekong Delta.
Who We Are
The Mekong Journey is the travel website and brand of Công ty TNHH Thương mại Du lịch Vĩnh Bình – Vinh Binh Trading and Tourism Company Limited.
Our focus is on discovering the Mekong Delta through its landscapes, local life, food, and human connections. With journeys featuring destinations such as Bến Tre and Trà Vinh, alongside opportunities to stay at Mekong Homestay, we invite travellers to spend time with the region and discover what gives it its distinctive character.
We believe a meaningful journey leaves room for curiosity. Beyond reaching a destination, it is about noticing how people live, understanding something of their traditions, and finding enjoyment in experiences that may be wonderfully different from your own.
Our Story
The Mekong Journey begins with a simple idea: the everyday life of the Mekong Delta is worth travelling for.
A waterway is also a route to work. A meal carries the flavours of a household and its surroundings. Behind a familiar landscape are people, routines, and stories that give it meaning.
This perspective shapes the kind of travel we want to offer. We bring together opportunities to explore, experience local hospitality, and enjoy time away from the pace of daily life.
Our name reflects that approach. The Mekong Journey is an invitation to keep discovering — to follow a river a little further, ask another question, try an unfamiliar flavour, and allow a place to surprise you.
Our Values
Genuine connection: We value experiences that help people understand one another. A conversation, a shared meal, or a glimpse into everyday life can bring a destination closer than a photograph alone.
Warm hospitality: We want our guests to feel welcome from their first enquiry. For us, hospitality begins with listening, communicating clearly, and paying attention to the details that matter to each traveller.
Respect for local life: The places we visit are also people’s homes and workplaces. We believe travel should respect local customs, personal space, and the rhythms of the communities that welcome visitors.
Thoughtful travel: We encourage curiosity, consideration, and care for our surroundings. Our goal is to help guests enjoy the Mekong Delta while being mindful of the people and environments they encounter.
Clarity and trust: A comfortable journey begins with clear expectations. We value straightforward information about itineraries, accommodation, included services, and additional costs, so guests can choose an experience that suits them.
Our Mission
To help travellers connect with the Mekong Delta through thoughtfully arranged journeys, welcoming stays, and meaningful encounters with local life.
We aim to make each experience approachable and personal, giving our guests the information and support they need while leaving space for discovery. Through our work, we seek to encourage appreciation for the people, culture, and natural surroundings that make this region special.
Our Vision
To become a trusted choice for travellers seeking a more personal connection with the Mekong Delta.
We envision tourism that brings lasting value to both visitors and the places they visit — where local identity is respected, hospitality remains sincere, and the region’s distinctive character continues to inspire future journeys.
Your Journey With Us
Discover Bến Tre and Trà Vinh
Explore two destinations that offer different perspectives on life in the Mekong Delta. Our Bến Tre and Trà Vinh journey brings together the pleasure of travelling through the region with time to appreciate its surroundings and local character.
For travellers departing from Ho Chi Minh City, our two-day, one-night itinerary offers an opportunity to step away from the city and experience a different pace, with an overnight homestay stay as part of the journey.
Specific visits, activities, meals, and transport arrangements are detailed in each itinerary.
Stay a Little Longer
A stay at Mekong Homestay offers time to pause between discoveries and enjoy a gentler rhythm.
Whether your stay is part of a tour or booked separately, we encourage you to choose the arrangement that best suits your plans. Standalone accommodation includes breakfast; lunch, dinner, and tour activities are separate from the room rate.
Find Meaning in the Small Moments
Our approach centres on the pleasure of being somewhere new with time to appreciate it. Sometimes, the most memorable part of a journey is an unexpected conversation or an ordinary moment that helps you see a place differently.
That is the spirit behind “A touch of real life.”
