Description

Option 1: Southern of Phu Quoc Begin your adventure with a convenient hotel pickup. Head to Phu Quoc Prison, where you’ll explore preserved cell blocks, exhibitions, and artifacts that tell stories of resilience. Learn about the island’s history and the life of its people as you tour the historical complex. Next, visit Ho Quoc Pagoda, the largest Buddhist temple in Phu Quoc and the Southwest region. Marvel at the grand pagoda complex with expansive sea views and red-tiled roofs. Experience a peaceful, spiritual atmosphere where Zen meets majestic nature. Offer prayers, meditate, or simply admire the temple’s architectural beauty and serene surroundings. Continue to Kim Giao Lady Shrine, a tranquil spiritual site with a serene environment. Alternatively, stop at Dinh Cau Temple, perched on rocks above the sea and famed for its dramatic ocean backdrop. If time permits, visit local craft villages. At a pepper farm, learn about pepper cultivation, harvesting methods, and regional varieties. At a fish sauce factory, see fermentation barrels, traditional processing steps, and packaging—a great place to learn about local flavors. In a fishing village, observe traditional fishing life and interact with local fishermen; capture authentic harbor scenes and daily routines. Finally, return to your hotel, enriched with the cultural and historical insights of Phu Quoc. Option 2: Northern of Phu Quoc The tour guide will pick you up from your hotel to begin the journey. Start your adventure with a visit to Rach Vem Fishing Village, a charming coastal spot known for its pristine nature, turquoise waters, and white sandy beaches. Here, you’ll experience the tranquil atmosphere of one of Phu Quoc’s oldest fishing communities. With around 180 households engaged in fishing and aquaculture, many living on unique floating rafts, this village offers a fascinating glimpse into the traditional life of local fishermen. Continue by canoe to Mui Ham Rong (Ham Rong Cape), often called the “Kingdom of Starfish.” From here, you can see the Vietnam–Cambodia sea border. This area is a paradise for nature lovers, featuring crystal-clear waters and fine white sand — perfect for swimming, relaxing, and spotting colorful starfish both on the shore and beneath the waves. On the way back, visit a Bee Farm to explore the captivating world of honeybees and enjoy a unique eco-experience. (If the Bee Farm is closed on Wednesday, you’ll visit a local Pepper Farm instead.) After the visit, return to your hotel.
