Mekong Delta River tour; 2 Day 1 Night Homestay

Been out of crazy city civilisation for a few days, touring the incredible Mekong Delta river through Kim Travels tours, I would 100% recommend visiting Mekong Delta and it's floating markets, I would also massively recommend if you have the homestay option to do this instead of a hotel, not only is it much more authentic you are literally fully immersed in river life staying in a kind of shack made out of leaves right on the riverside in the middle of the Vietnamese wilderness. So through the tour we booked we got picked up by a bus around 7:30 AM at the hostel to part of Mekong Delta river, once there we boarded a longboat and cruised down the river, our first stop was one of the on land markets where the locals sold anything from sarongs to skinned alive frogs (I kid you not I watched it happen by accident it was gross), the market was really interesting to walk around as the produce was so diverse but be warned it is pretty graphic in terms of animal parts and doesn't smell particularly wonderful. After we then went to see how the locals made rice paper for spring rolls, how they made coconut candy and honey tea, i'll break this up with some portraits I took at the market and the local cuisine introduction.
