Thieng Lieng Rural Seaside Escape® – Speedboat Charter
Beyond the bustling energy of Ho Chi Minh City lies a different Vietnam—one shaped by rivers, tides, mangrove forests and generations of people living in harmony with nature.
Accessible only by water, Thiềng Liềng Island is one of the last hidden communities of Southern Vietnam. Located within the greater Cần Giờ region, this peaceful island is known for its vast salt fields, quiet village roads, rich cultural traditions and authentic way of life.
Aboard Amiral Explorers®, journey along the historic Saigon River into the UNESCO-listed Cần Giờ Mangrove Biosphere Reserve, where urban landscapes gradually give way to wetlands, waterways and coastal countryside.
Discover a place where salt remains a livelihood, where local stories are shared with pride, and where meaningful encounters create lasting memories.
More than a sightseeing excursion, Thiềng Liềng Escape® is a voyage into the heart of Southern Vietnam’s living heritage.
