This tour was a lot of fun. Lily was a great host and guide She made some very welcome adjustments to the order of the tour because of the heat on the day of our tour. The coconut boats were fun, and a really good experience for anyone who hasn't done it yet in Vietnam. (It might not have had a lot to do with the cooking experience, but I really enjoyed it.) The market tour was good and we got some exposure to selecting and shopping for food. The cooking experience was certainly the highlight. I'd expected to watch a lot more, but loved how hands on it was. Lily was fantastic - very skilled and knowledgeable and shared a lot of techniques which will make cooking easier. Her humour and stories were very appreciated.

Great value morning activity. Enjoyed the round boat ride. Lots of boats lots of colour and photo opportunities. The market walk was interesting but the cooking class was the highlight with lots of tips to use back home. Lovely food and plenty of it. Don’t eat a large breakfast. Lily was an amazing teacher.
