During their week-long stay, the visitors will be divided into groups to explore cultures and lifestyles in HCM City and several Mekong Delta provinces. A group of 210 will tour Tien Giang Province while another group of 80 will travel to Binh Quoi tourist village to see a traditional Vietnamese wedding.

The vessel is scheduled to travel to the northern province of Quang Ninh where they will visit the UNESCO-recognized heritage site, Ha Long Bay, and Hanoi.

According to the General Statistics Office, 370,000 international tourists came to Vietnam in January, a fall of 11.9 percent from the same period last year.
