5.00Hoi An is beautiful but we needed a break from the shopping downtown. This was perfect; a countryside ride on a moped. We spent time with a restaurant owner, a rice wine maker, and a weaver. The rice fields have a certain beauty and we rode thru many of them in a very small group. Our guide and my driver were both English speaking and fun. and the countryside trip was very safe.
Fun afternoon zipping around the countryside!

5.00It was a fun afternoon out riding on the back of the vintage Vespa and visiting small local businesses in the countryside. The tour started with a very nice lunch and my driver/guide Hanni was very safe and knowledgeable. There was no hard sell at each of the small businesses which I appreciated and I also liked that the tour company is including local crafts people such as the mat weavers who, without tourism, wouldn’t be able to continue. I also had a lovely friendly tour group which made the experience even more enjoyable. Definitely recommend it!
Fantastic experience and...
