Hoi An Country Tour - Rice Paper, Mat Weaving, Wood Carving, Rice Wine on a Vesper

5.00Very interesting, informative and fun countryside tour of Hoi An—especially enjoyable as farmers ourselves. Bao was a fabulous host, sharing great insight into local practices and their no-waste approach. Weave matting was my favourite and spilt with gifts from the owners. We even stopped for a coconut basket boat ride, which was a lot of fun (and plenty of spinning!). Lunch afterwards—thankfully after the boat—was full of flavour and very generous in size. Highly recommend!
A great day exploring the local farming community

Hoi An Vespa Tour

5.00We did an afternoon Vespa Tour of Hoi An. It started with a great lunch in a local restaurant (excellent food, spring rolls, rice, bak choi, prawns and cat fish). We then drove out into the countryside and experienced four local family businesses - mat weaving, rice wine making, wood carving and rice noodle making. Fabulous tour guide Vu who spoke great English and was very knowledgable. It was also really enjoyable just driving through the countryside.
See the traditional side of Hoi An

5.00This tour was a great opportunity to leave the bustle of Hoi An and get into the experience of Vietnam culture. Phi Phi (our host) was amazing and kind. This is a hands on experience. A meal was included in the experience and was a welcome addition to the experience. The bike is driven by the tour guide and that was a welcome feature of the trip.

5.00We had an awesome time with Thomas and his colleague. Great experience visiting the quiet village towns - rice paper making, wood carving and weaving. Lunch was great at Tula Garden Restaurant aswell! Recommend if you’re keen to see some of the local village life outside of the hustle and bustle of the town centre.
Fabulous
