Really enjoyed this experience! Got to go around the market & select the fresh produce. Then after a boat ride along the river we were able to learn some recipes! We cooked outdoors under a canopy with a lovely view over the river - it was a nice experience to cook outdoors like this 😁 The members of staff were super friendly and transport to and from the experience was included. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Hoi An 🧡
Amazing experience

Very nice Welcoming by Tin and his family. The tour is classic with a stop to see a fisherman throwing a net. Smile and conviviality. It’s a pleasant walk along the river.
An amazing tour! Would highly recommend!

This is a family run business by Tin and Trang. We were picked up on time from our hotel and taken to the market where we met with Trang. She showed us the local produce and bought some for us to cook with later. We were then taken to her home over looking the river where we met her Husband Tin. We were given traditional coffee and green tea and then Tin took us on a round boat ride through coconut palms. He made us two shell necklaces and took the time to take photos of us. He was very funny. When we got back we met up again with Trang and starting cooking. All the traditional dishes we cooked were amazing and very tasty. We were given water and beers during the meal. Trang was very patient with us and spoke very good English. We would definitely recommend this tour. This cost us 65,000 Dong each and was definitely worth it. Thank you once again Tin and Trang.
loved it...

Trang made us feel right at home, not only because our excursion practically took place in her own backyard, thereby allowing us to get a good glimpse of how the locals live, but also because of her gentle and kindly manner. This greatly added to the fun of the cooking class, and we genuinely enjoyed the dining right next to the river. Take the word of those others here who have nothing but praises for Trang, and mine for it, you will not regret signing up for this tour.
Excellent service with really friendly staff!

Staff was real friendly and acted like an old friend! We got to try different activities that other tourists didn’t get to try!! (e.g. net fishing and crab fishing!!) Food was amazing & service was real good too! The staff were so friendly and enthusiastic as well! :-) Would advice you to come if you are looking for something chill, relaxing, interesting and insightful!
Highly recommended

Visited with my family and my teenage children had a lot of fun! Staff were friendly and allowed us to try many things that bigger tour groups did not (eg. fishing crab). Perfect for small families, support their family business :)
Good services
