There are 2 options for you below.
1. Book with some local agent in HCMC for a cruise from HCMC to PP via Mekong Delta.
2. Head to Can Tho (Stay 1 night - Floating markets) and then get to Chau Doc (1 more night - take a 7:30 am or 8 am ferry boat from Chau Giang port to PP).

You can also take a bus from HCMC directly to Chau Doc (Around 6 hours) and then take a ferry boat from Chau Giang port next morning to PP (Around 5 hours) - 2 days 1 night. If you follow above, you will miss Mekong Delta activities like boat ride, bike ride, floating markets... Option 2 takes you 3 days 2 nights - 1 night in Can Tho and 1 night in Chau Doc. 12 pm or more you will arrive in PP on a ferry boat with any option.

In Mekong Delta, you should spend at least 2 days for enjoying because floating market opens in the early morning
