5.00Our lovely guide, Man, greeted us at our hotel and provided the bikes for the tour. We rode through town and were quickly among the lush rice paddies of Hoi An. Man has great English and took us through all the back roads and little villages. We stopped and did some wood carving (we were terrible), visited locals making amazing rice wine and got to taste all the varieties. We went out fishing with some local women. We then road to a village and learnt to make rice noodles. Then a lovely lunch utilising those noodles with a lovely ice cold local beer. A short ride later and we hopped on a boat and chugged down the river for a leisurely time. Another short tide back to our hotel. This was an awesome opportunity to meet and see local people doing what they do and to experience the incredible hospitality of the Vietnamese people. Man was a delightful, knowledgable guide and will also cater to any fitness levels and accommodate what suits you. Highly recommend.

5.00This was the most amazing tour, definitely worth the money and time! A must do when in Hoi An. You can either do a buddy if not confident with bike riding, but if you can the bike ride was an incredible way to see and experience vietnam. The making of your own noodles for lunch and seeing the rice wine - AWESOME! Tour started from 2pm and finished around 6:30pm and took back to hotel. Please give this a go, the tour leader Mam is amazing
A great afternoon experiencing the real Vietnam.

5.00It was a good half day experiencing the country side. Man was a friendly, genuine guy with a good sense of humour who showed us Vietnamese culture which was a great way to see as much as we did on our short stay in Hoi An.
