This is a series of images taken in April 2006 in the
Mekong Delta region.
We went there as a two-day private tour (with an English-speaking
guide and a non-English-speaking driver) booked through
TNK travel in HCMC.
The tour included a number of boat trips on the Mekong river and
on a number of smaller rivers, a visit to the wholesale fruit
market in My Tho and to the Cai Rang floating market, and a visit
to a rice noodle workshop, among other things.
We stayed overnight in Can Tho.
