Overview

Why teams choose Can Tho

Can Tho is the antidote to a generic hotel-ballroom offsite. This is the capital of the Mekong Delta, where the day starts with sampans gliding through the Cai Rang floating market and canals thread between orchards and stilt houses. For teams who want their program to feel like somewhere, it’s hard to beat.

It’s also a proven MICE base, not just a scenic one. We’ve delivered multi-day international programs here anchored by the Sheraton Can Tho – a riverside five-star with ballroom capacity – pairing formal sessions with genuinely local experiences.

And the Delta lends itself to meaningful CSR. Nearby schools, communities and orchards make give-back activities authentic rather than staged, which is why purpose-driven teams increasingly choose Can Tho for programs that need to mean something.
