At traditional markets or floating markets, you can ask for prices beforehand and negotiate a suitable price when buying fruits, specialties, or souvenirs. In supermarkets, shopping malls, and stores with fixed prices, you do not need to bargain.

Can Tho has many signature dishes such as banh xeo, banh cong, hotpot, grilled snakehead fish, and various fruit dishes from the Mekong Delta. You should choose busy eateries, areas with clean preparation, and prioritize food that is cooked and served on-site.

Can Tho can be visited year-round, but from December to April, the weather is usually dry, making it convenient for exploring the city and outdoor attractions. If you want to experience the unique features of the Mekong Delta during the flooding season, you might consider visiting from September to November.

Can Tho is generally a safe and friendly destination for travelers. When visiting crowded areas, piers, or floating markets, you should keep your belongings secure and choose transportation units, boats, or vessels with clear information.
