5.00We weren't sure if we'd bother with this activity but it was really fun. They picked us up and dropped us back - we could get dropped back to wherever we wanted to. The guy who brought us on the boat was so much fun. You pay extra to go into a boat with someone who spins you really fast. It's 150k for 2 people or 100k for 1 person. Well worth it it was really fun. 😊
Excellent services and good English

5.00There are a lot of coconut boat ride companies in the village. You have to be careful with some that seems want to charge you (some hidden cost) more. As advised by the owner, I booked this boat your via Getyourguide and keep contacting the owner while arriving the village. (Just realized and Beware...there is also a company named Green coconut Tour which is a different company from Green Coconut Village Tour) Green Coconut Village (Lang Dua Xanh) coconut boat ride served us very well and without any scam. The owner speaks very good English and very helpful & informative. He briefed all of us before the boat ride and tell us what experience we will face during the boat ride. We booked 3 boats (only 2 person allowed in 1 boat) with a lady guide in my boat. The guides are very good. Although there was a little rain , they made our boat ride very cheerful and even help us to take a lot of photographs in different pose in the boat :) Two thumbs up for the team and services of Lang Dua Xanh Green Coconut Village. Thank you guys...
Fun experience

5.00We had the best time at the cooking class and boat trip. We are both vegans and they catered the menu for us and all the food was delicious and there was so much of it that we took it with us and had dinner and lunch the next day. We made Vietnamese pancakes, spring rolls, a vegetable and tofu claypot and a banana flower salad. They made us some steamed rice and morning glory and we enjoyed a passion fruit juice and coconut desert. Everything was amazing and our guide was so lovely. We went to the market to pick up our fresh food, spent an hour in a basket boat enjoying crabbing, karaoke displays and watching the guys spin around in the boats and then went back for the cooking class. We loved every minute of it and highly recommend it.

5.00The Green Coconut Village Cooking Tour has been a highlight of my trip in Vietnam. Vu and his family were very welcoming and made sure that we were all enjoying ourselves as well as teaching us about Vietnam’s food culture. Ni guided our tour who was full of energy and easy to follow throughout the day. She first took us to a local market to purchase the local produce that we were going to cook with and then had a ride on the Coconut Boats which was quite touristy but good fun. Ni taught us to cook four dishes which included fried rice paper rolls, chicken salad, Vietnamese pancake and fish. All delicious Vietnamese recipes! I’d highly recommend this tour.
Highly recommended class

5.00Vu's team provided an absolutely incredible experience, with such friendly and welcoming people to show us the way. You're shown the way the locals get to live at the market and then get to go experience the brilliant coconut forest and have lots of fun. Ni was an excellent tour guide and instructor, and the food was incredible and easy to make. Would recommend to anyone.
