Cần Giờ Mangrove Forest

Our first adventure outside Ho Chi Minh City: We decided to head out with some friends to the Can Gio Mangrove Forest.  Here is what we did:
  • Started at Ben Thanh Market in District One
  • Took Bus 20 to a Ferry to Can Gio
  • Took Bus 90 until we reached Monkey Island
    • Saw a bunch of Monkeys keen on stealing peoples food
    • Payed 20,000 Vietnamese Dong ($1) to feed some Crocodiles 
  • Headed to the Beach
    • Relaxed in a hammock 
    • Bought Fresh (read live) seafood which they cooked for us on the spot
  • Headed Home
How much did this all cost you ask.  $7.46 per person.  

Enjoy the Pictures and Video.
