"At the end of its epic journey through the heart of Indochina, the coffee-brown Mekong River splits, sloshing seawards through Vietnam. A pocketful of dong still goes a very long way in this delta region, and although the fertile plains and waterways are a riot of vivid colours and flavours, with endless opportunities for exploring by motorbike and boat, the area still sees surprisingly few foreign tourists," the guide said.
Others include Thailand, Egypt, South Africa, Uruguay, Cuba, Gambia, Prague in the Czech Republic, Greece and Guatemala.
