What you can expect

● The tour guide will pick you up at your hotel and depart.
● The first destination is Phú Quốc Prison
Explore the preserved cell blocks, exhibitions, and artefacts that tell stories of resilience. Learn about the island’s history and the life of its people as you tour the historical complex.
● Then, we will visit Ho Quoc Pagoda
Marvel at the grand pagoda complex with expansive sea views and red-tiled roofs. The largest Buddhist temple in Phú Quốc and the Southwest region, spanning up to 110 hectares. Experience a peaceful, spiritual atmosphere where Zen meets majestic nature. Visitors can offer prayers, meditate, or simply admire the temple’s architectural beauty and serene surroundings.
● After that, visit Kim Ciao Lady Shrine / Dinh Cậu Temple
Visit Kim Ciao Lady Shrine, a tranquil spiritual site with a serene environment. Alternatively, stop at Dinh Cậu Temple, perched on rocks above the sea and famed for its dramatic ocean backdrop.
● See local craft villages (time permitting)
o Pepper Farm: Learn about pepper cultivation, harvesting methods, and regional varieties.
o Fish Sauce Factory: See fermentation barrels, traditional processing steps, and packaging—a great place to learn about local flavours.
o Fishing Village: Observe traditional fishing life and interact with local fishermen; capture authentic harbour scenes and daily routines.
Phu Quoc pepper is renowned as the best pepper in Vietnam, and our visit to a famous pepper farm will provide fascinating insights into its transformation from plant to pepper pot. You will learn how local farmers carefully cultivate their pepper to produce the highest quality.

Next, we will head to Ham Ninh village, one of the top destinations on Phu Quoc Island, where you can discover how locals make their living by catching fish, crab and other underwater delights.

We then visit Suoi Tranh waterfall, one of the most impressive natural attractions on Phu Quoc Island. Although the waterfall is not large, it is still picturesque, and the scenic trail leading to it enhances the experience.

Another famous speciality of Phu Quoc is Sim Wine; you will have the opportunity to sample some at the Sim Wine distillery during the penultimate part of our tour.

For the final leg of our journey, we will wander through the atmospheric Duong Dong Night Market and admire the unique natural formation known as “Dinh Cau” Rock - Cau Temple. This temple was constructed to commemorate Thien Hau ,the Goddess of the Sea, whom locals believe provides protection for fishermen heading out to sea.
