Continuing the trip, we will cycle to a local market, where we will teach you practical Vietnamese phrases for bargaining, expressing gratitude, and giving compliments. You can also taste some unique and delicious fruits. Along the way, we will stop by the riverside to enjoy a special treat beverage. You will have the option to hop on a coconut boat, known as "Thúng Chai," to explore the waterways flanked by coconut palms.
