About

Start the day with a boat trip to my family's village located on a small island. Visit the local farmers' gardens to discover the herbs and spices used for Vietnamese cuisine.

You will then be brought back to the school to start the cooking class. After welcome drinks you will learn how to make rice milk and the rice paper used in Nems in the most traditional way. Our professional chef will then teach you how to prepare 4 traditional Vietnamese dishes.

Last but not least cycle your way back to Hoi An (9km) and stopping for several activities on the way.

"Fantastic!"

Very nice experience. Started with a welcome drink, followed by showing us how they traditionally hull rice, then how they separate the hulls, and then liquefy the rice to make the rice paper. Then we each took turns making one. We then made spring rolls with out 'rice pancake'. All in all we made 4 dishes and had a locally made sesame pudding for dessert. We parted ways with the folks going back by boat some time around 2pm I think and hopped on our bikes, but not before visiting a local home and seeing how sleeping mats are woven. The bike pace was very leisurely with several stops along the way to see rice wine production, a temple, how basket boats are made and used with an opportunity to try it out, and saw how they do shell inlay. One thing I really appreciated about this tour was that there was 0 pressure to buy anything ever.

"Great food, we’ll organised and lovely leaders."

The cooking course started with us on bicycles riding through villages to the cooking destination. Our guide was great and there was so much to learn. Spices etc were laid out in little bowls and we were leaf through the recipes at a good pace. Only disappointment was that we didn’t go to the market first as advertised, this may have been because it was so close to New Year.

"Fantastic"

Such a wonderful experience. Vi was fabulous as a guide and a teacher in the cooking class. Thank you for a memorable experience.

"Slightly late start but authentic experience. Good value for money"

There was some delay at the start as we had to wait for another group to join our tour. However, once the tour started it ran very smoothly. The experience was very local and authentic. I felt that I was really on a remote island and away from urban areas. I enjoyed all the activities from cooking to cycling. Would be even nicer if we could spend a bit more time on the basket boats. Overall, I was very satisfied with the experience. I even tried to sign up for 2nd cooking class the next day! But I was informed that there was 1 menu so I didn't want to repeat the same thing. Will definitely do 2 full-days of the tour with this operator if they offer a 2nd cooking menu so that I won't be repeating the same thing on the 2nd day!

"Good"

It was very good!
