5.00Only a morning tour, but it was a very full schedule. Starting with a visit to the market to pick up ingredients, we headed out of the town for a river trip in coconut boats and then a full-on cooking class which was even better than expected. Super hosting by Ly, do this tour if you have a spare morning!
Excellent food

5.00This was the best afternoon we spent in Vietnam! We were picked up, taken on a tour of the local markets to buy produce and then taken to a fun coconut boat ride with some real characters! We then proceeded to cooking class and Chef Hai Hai was the best! He taught us all about some beautiful cooking methods, making salads, spring rolls, Vietnamese pancakes and chicken and rice. All were delicious!! Everyone was friendly and looked after me and my family including my 8 year old son who had a ball! Strongly recommended. Great value for money and a real memory.
Delicious experience! Fun and friendly!
