Local knowledge for Can Tho

Where to stay

Ninh Kieu district is where most budget places cluster, particularly on and just off Hai Ba Trung along the waterfront. You can walk to the boat docks in under 10 minutes, which matters when you need to catch a 5am departure for Cai Rang.

Getting around

  • Negotiate boat hire directly at Ninh Kieu Wharf rather than booking through your hostel. The same two-hour run to Cai Rang Floating Market typically costs about half the price.
  • Arrive at Cai Rang by 5:30am. Most of the wholesale trading wraps up before 8am and what remains is staged for tour groups.
  • Phong Dien Floating Market sits about 20km out and is best reached on a rented motorbike. It runs smaller but draws almost no organized tours.

When to go

Beds are cheapest and easy to find May through October during the rainy season. Book ahead for Tet (late January to early February), when domestic travelers fill the delta and hostels in Ninh Kieu sell out days in advance.
