Super Guide Tung in Hoi An
In Hoi An, Viet Nam, we sampled nearby river culture, courtesy of Asian Highlights, in the very capable hands of our engaging guide Tung. We paddled iconic Vietnamese round bamboo basket boats, tried cast net fishing, and raised a large fishing net. A fun-filled, first-hand lesson about Viet Nam water livelihood. Along the way, Tung educated us about his successful ventures raising Salangane swifts (producing nests for birds nest soup) and minnows (sold to local fish farms). Our fascinating time with entrepreneur Tung was far too short.
