The Tra Su Cajuput Forest

Only 30 km southwest of Chau Doc lies the Tra Su Cajuput Forest, one of the most beautiful destinations in the Mekong Delta.

The Tra Su Forest is an ecosystem of cajuput trees and a flooded mangrove forest that provides a breathtaking backdrop to the plants and animals of this paradisiacal park.

The swamp area is a perfect location for hundreds of species, from plants, fish, snails, crabs, frogs to aquatic life, providing food for the overlying storks and other birds.

Tra Su Forest

Tra Su Cajuput Forest is home to an estimated 140 species of plants, 70 species of birds, 11 species of animals, 25 species of reptiles and 23 species of fish.

There are some hiking trails in the forest and an area with a viewing platform worth a walk.

On the way through the park there are many different species of birds to watch and often one sees beautiful lotus flowers - the floral symbol of Vietnam.

We stayed in the Luxe Hotel, a beautiful brand new hotel in Chau Doc.

It takes only 10 to 20 kilometers from Tra Su Forest to reach the famous spiritual tourist attraction of An Giang, such as Nui Cam, Ba Chua Xu Nui Sam Pagoda and the Cham Mosques on the Hau River.

Mekong Delta -Ricefield Lodge

In 2018 a dream was realized in the Mekong Delta. This small paradise is home to over 500 fruit trees, numerous ducks, geese, chickens, cats and dogs.

How the Mekong Delta - Ricefield Lodge was created.

Martin our friendly host and proud owner was born in Augsburg (a small town about 60 km from Munich). He looks back on a career as a professional chef / master chef with 40 years of professional experience in various restaurants and small hotels in Germany.

After a long and hard work, he decided in 2014 to give up everything in Germany, with the idea that work can not be everything. He traveled around the world in the following years to find the inspiration for his future life.

He visited many beautiful and incredible countries like Cuba, Senegal, Gambia, Oman, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam etc.

In doing so, he discovered the "hidden charm" of Vietnam - a beautiful country. After a long trip around Vietnam from the South Mekong Delta to the North Sapa, he falls in love with the country and the local people.

Because of Ho Chi Minh City - the metropolis of millions became too loud after 1.5 years, he started to build his cozy lodge in the country to realize his childhood dream as a farmer.

Super offer to discover the Mekong Delta - Ricefield Lodge!

Upon request we arrange the private transfer.

Conclusion:

The Mekong Delta - Ricefield Lodge is a place where the real "authentic" vacation still takes place. Everything is still very original and not affected by tourism. The people are extremely hospitable and welcome every guest warmly. As you can meet the cheers of the kids here on the streets at any time, you sometimes have the feeling of being a pop star.
