Cours de cuisine
Hoi An

We did the afternoon class and had the pleasure of it being private for my partner and I. I guess usually the morning classes are packed. We went to the market to learn about some traditional ingredients. In the afternoons the markets are less busy but we were ok with that. Our tour guide got us passion fruit and some clams to try out different cooking techniques. Then we went to the restaurant and had tea and a special passion fruit juice our guide Longtran made us. After we took a fun bamboo boat ride on the water which was amazing. There was karaoke and bamboo boat tricks as well as some minor fishing and we even caught two baby crabs we later let back. Dinner was amazing. Please come with an empty stomach. We made Spring Rolls, Banh Xeo, Seafood noodles and Banana Flower Salad. Longtran also made different types of clams for us! Most memorable cooking class experience in our travels! Also the beer is super cheap and perfect with the meal.

We really enjoyed our cooking class with Mo. Mo answered all of our questions as we made our way through the market - she was also very good at explaining how the market operates and the difference in prices. The cooking class was very hands on and you were put out of your comfort zone when making the dishes - but Mo was always there to guide or steer you in the right direction if you were not getting it! Lovely to be outside of Hoi An too in Mo’s family home, it really was an authentic cooking experience. I would highly recommend this class!

The cooking class was amazing. The teacher great, the food delicious, the place beautiful. The bamboo basket was so much fun!!!!! ♥ Also they respect any allergies o food intolerance you may have. Highly recommend the experience!!

We first spent around 45 minutes in the market learning about the different produce, herbs and spices. After a 15 minute bike ride we arrived at the class, greeted by our Master Chef, who guided us through 5 dishes. It was one of the best, if not the best meals we had in Hoi An (and we were in Hoi An for 3 weeks and had many great meals). Then surprisingly, we were given foot massages after speaking our feet in an herb bath. Unreal. We learned so much and had so much fun, we'd do it again.

The cooking class was amazing, because it's not just cooking also boat tours. Our chef was very nice and helpful, she knew allot and told us lot of things. Thank you very much, we've learned a lot. :)

We did the cooking class in a group of four and really enjoyed the whole experience. The response time was quick and the pick up in time. Before the class we enjoyed a short boat ride to the island where the actual class takes place. This was really relaxing and we directly felt welcome and eager to start cooking! Oanh the women, who was teaching us how to cook was speaking a very good English and was soooo nice. We really liked her and her cute way of giving us orders in a very kind manor :) she couldn't done better! Thanks a lot Oanh. The whole experience was great and the food really delicious, so I would definetly recommend this class to everybody!

Definitely recommendation it! We were only my husband and I in the course. In the morning they pick up in our hotel, we choose 4 dishes on a list with 68 options. We went to the local market and bought all the ingredients. Was really interesting and funny! Then we went to her restaurant, and upstairs it's a huge kitchen. We learn all the basic, cook alone and got a lot of explanation. At the end, of course, we eated all what we prepare ! Really good experience :)

It started with a visit to the local market to buy some fresh products , then a short bicycle ride to the « herbs village ». Fresh drink, then nice head and feet massage to prepare for the class. After some vegetable sculpting, we cooked 4 different dishes, tasteful and good-looking. Very enjoyable experience with a smiling teacher 😋🙏

We chose the cookery course because it offered an experience and not just cooking. The reviews were also really good. We were not disappointed it was a fabulous morning . Quy was a great host. She took us to the market and explained many things, then we went by boat to see the fishermen and then the bamboo boat, buffalo cart ride, massage and then we learnt to cook then eat 4 amazing dishes. It was the best. We learnt so much about cooking but also how people live. My advice would be to skip breakfast as there is so much to eat. A wonderful experience.

Sunny, our chef/teacher/guide, did an amazing job from start to finish from the shopping for our food in the market to the instruction in preparing each of the dishes. She was very knowledgeable and patient. I’ve take a few cooking classes in various countries and this was the best so far!

We had a nice view into the vietnamese kitchen secrets how to make their great local food of course with an awesome dinner of all self prepared dishes. The location in the herbal village was an additional highlight for us. The cooking class is given by a very lovely vietnamese couple, depending on the group size at their own terrace at home or at their restaurant one street further, both very beautiful and authentic locations. We enjoyed the time learning about their way to prepare the food. They already had some vegetables prepared ready to use, others we were cutting by ourself. Rolling the spring rolls and frying the rice pancakes is made by yourself to learn the correct technic. That's very nice to see, how it works. We would highly recommend this class with their great hosts, by the way, you can spend a night at their homestay, which was another wonderful experience to get a great view into local living. Thanks a lot!

An excellent day. We were met by the owner and chef Linh at our hotel with driver and car. Our first stop was the market where we had a tour of the traders she buys from. We stopped at the spice counter, fresh salad and herbs, vegetables, fruit, meat and seafood and fish. Linh was very informative and explained and answered our questions. The cooking school above her restaurant is immaculate, spacious, very clean and well equipped. We choose 4 dishes as just 2 in our class. Instruction was first class and easy to follow. We made Vietnamese pancakes fried spring rolls beef lalt and shrimps in spicy sauce. Water and beer available to accompany the food we sat and ate. We had a recipe book with all recipes included and long chopsticks to cook with. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and recommend it as a fab day.

Me and my partner attended this tour and Nga was brilliant . We went to the local market where she explained the traditional dishes of vietnam and all the ingredients needed , we then went to the coconut basket boats and wore the traditional hats , our boat driver was fun and we went crab fishing . After this we had a cooking class that was extremely good and got to take the recipes home with us ! Fantastic experience would recommend to anyone visiting hoi an . They were all very friendly too :)

“It’s very good!” My 9-year-old daughter kept saying it during the whole class. We loved everything! Even though most part of the market was closed due to the holidays, we had a chance to buy some herbs with Mo. Her explanation was very interesting and helpful. The boat ride to Mo’s kitchen was nice, and the welcome drink was delicious. Every step if of making dishes was well organized and explained. Our family and a couple from the States could enjoy our own relaxing class with no hurry. The food was GREAT! The Bahn Xeo and the pho especially were the best I have ever had. Loved Mo’s warm hospitality, passion for Vietnamese food and professional yet kind explanation. My daughter made her dishes by herself thanks to Mo. Will definitely revisit her kitchen when we come to Hoi An. Thank you for the amazing experience, Mo. Happy and prosperous new year to you and your family!

It was very pleasant experience, far exceeding our expectations. We have been taken care off, the boat trip was very entertaining, the fishing part was successful, the food was fresh and delicious, but most importantly everything was organized in a professional and timely manner. Definitely recommend this one!

We were extremely pleased with our cooking class we had with Mo. She is both extremely knowledgeable, friendly and a master chef. Our timing was a little off because of the tet celebrations but Mo still went above and beyond to give us the full experience, she even took us to one of the only open stalls in the market to show us several herbs we would later use in the food. Coming from someone who is fascinated by both food and culture I highly recommend this experience. Mo does a great job of teaching about the food and culture surrounding the Hoi An area, especially if you start asking questions. It is run out of her home in a small village that takes a boat ride to get there which only adds to its authenticity. You will leave the class with a better understanding and appreciation for the food and culture of Vietnam.

Looking for an opportunity to get to know Vietnamese cuisine better then you cannot find a better class than this one. Great explanations and hands on experience in a lovely location a short 20 min boat ride from Hoi An

The food tour was great I ate so much, Katie my guide was really knowledgeable, friendly and spoke really good English. If you're in Hoi An you should do this tour:)

It was a friendly and fabulous experience with Long and his family. We went to the local market, on the bamboo basket boat and had cooking class with our chef, Tuyet. She is a very calm and ready to answer all our questions while teaching us how to cook. We had lots of nice food to eat for dinner😋it’s a worthwhile experience👍

From pick up at the hotel when Long introduced himself and what we were going to do we felt like we will have a good experience.we went to the market then to the fishing village where we experienced a tour on the bamboo basket boat, came back to cook with our chef Tuyet who was marvellous 🥰😍She explained everything in details and answered all our questions clearly. The food we cooked were so much and really😊👌Overall if anyone wants to have a full 3 in 1 experience, go for it. It’s worth the money you pay👍🧡

Really fun class, the basket boats were super cute and I caught a crab! Was great fun to go to the market and learn about everything on offer. The recipes we made were gorgeous, and I've made them again since I got home. Really good organisers, and good value for money too :)

Tour through markets quick and educational Crabbing was super fun! And beautifully calming as you drifting in bamboo bots through the mangroves. The cooking was fun and easy! We learnt a couple of traditional techniques and dishes. It was a boatload of fun. 12/10 recommend to anyone interested in a day of scrumptious Vietnamese fun!

We were able to choose the 4 dishes we wanted to cook & were guided thru the market to select our ingredients. Linh gave us thoughrough explanations, clear instructions and answered all of our questions. The food was delicious and we left with some great cookimg skills and knowldeg of new recipes that we are confident we will be able to reproduce at home. Overall exceeded all ohr expectations.. highly reccomend this class.. Thankyou very much Linh!!!

What a fantastic way to not only experience the traditional fisherman’s mode of transport in a basket boat but also to actually do some crab fishing off the side! Our guide took us through the market and showed us some of the ingredients I had been dying to identify, then the cooking class itself was fantastic with a wonderful chef teaching us! Definitely recommended and I would love to do another class wit cookly

Great cooking class which made the day very relaxed. We all loved being shown around the market and being told about all the different herbs and spices. Hwan was our chef and his English was great! The food tasted excellent and we are all going to cook those dishes when we return home. The boat trip topped the day off as it was very authentic. Perfect day, thankyou!

exactly what I hoped when I booked the cooking class. No tourist entertainment but really learn how the dishes are made by doing it yourself. We started at 9 am on the market and finished at 3.30 pm. We cooked 9 differend dishes of our own choise in a group of 6 people. Everything fresh even the coconut milk for in the chicken curry. Afterwards we received recipes in book form to be able to get started at home.

The cooking bit itself was fun and informative; the chef was knowledgeable and challenged us. What really set this experience apart were all the extras: a 40ish minute motorized boatride followed by a basket boatride to shore followed by a Buffalo-led cart tour through the village and then a shoulder and foot massage. What?! It felt completely random but was totally enjoyable; we had a great time and made new friends.

Van is a fabulous cook and host. She loves to have some fun with her guests. We enjoyed the trip to the market to buy the food. The food was delicious and so much of it we couldn't eat it all. Van also gave us all a recipe book and gifts. Highly recomend . Thank you Van.

We really liked to go to the local market and the cooking part itself. However, the crab fishing part was very very touristy and not nice at all. You were almost obliged to give a tip to a performance you did not even ask for, and over all it was just not very authentic but just touristy. But the cooking part was very nice and made up for the crab fishing!

First at arrival at the office the staff is very friendly and made jokings. Good beginning the day:) We had a nice boat trip before we arrived on a lovely island where the cooking class is. The cooking class scenery is very nice with bamboo houses. The fact is in the nature made it even better! Then we started cooking amazing dishes! We had good explanations and we had so many dishes:) Thank you very a great day to remember!

The program was really great. First we went to the local market. It was interesting. We rode a bamboo boat about 30 minutes. We really enjoyed it. At the cooking class, the recipe was not easy but every food we made was very delicious. Even the fruit we bought at the market.😊😊😊 I really recommend this program those who travel Hoi An.

The guide was very informative. Initially took us through the markets and explained where all the ingredients come from and what they are used for. The boat ride was nice however a bit long, was still nice to see the river though. The basket boat was a nice touch, good for pics. We loved the buffalo ride with Joe, never done anything like that before. The massage was very enjoyable - and that’s coming from my boyfriend who doesn’t like massages! The actual cooking class was very smooth. Everything was prepared perfectly and the instructions were very clear. The meals tasted delicious and they were fun and quite easy to make. We were lucky because it was just the two of us in the morning so we got to know our guide quite well. I would suggest booking early for the morning session for a smaller class size, was really enjoyable.

Ingredients were fresh and individually portioned and everything was very well executed. The guide was extremely friendly and helpful and answered all the questions that we had. It was an overall very pleasant experience.

what a beautiful day learning about cooking but much more. The day was perfect. Mo met us on time and then we went to buy our freah meat,fish,vegetables,fruit and herbs. Her English was very good. She explained many different aspects of the market. When then proceeded to the peer where a boat took her to her island a short 10 minutes away. The set up was first class. Her teachings were precise and the food was succulent.

We just booked the class 1 day in advance and instantly got the feedback that we will be picked up the next morning. Our group was not too big with 10 people and Tony was such a great guide. Our first stop was the local market, where Tony bought some of the ingredients for our dishes. Afterwards, we went on a small boat tour, which was very touristy but still entertaining. Then the real cooking class started. Both, the location and Tonys family were really nice and I am still impressed by how good the food tasted :) you get the recipes afterwards per mail so that you can show your family and friends your newly acquired cooking skills

What a day. Starting out with a local market tour. Looking at all the local ingredients and attending a real local market. After that the weirdest thing we hav experienced, boat trip on local river with Korean karaoke. Crazy , fun and completely unexpected. Then over to the main attraction. The cooking of four Vietnamese dishes. The whole family, each had their own stow. We learned to cook spring roles Vietnamese pancakes, noodles and a sallad. The hole venue lasted from 2-7pm. And we had a blast. We can recommend it to everyone❤️❤️❤️

Great experience seeing the markets, the river by boat and also a quick ride in a local bamboo boat. Had a short water buffalo cart ride and time for some photos. Foot massage on arrival followed by the class. Class was fun and well organised, cooked 4 different dishes. Instructor was easy to understand. Overall a fun afternoon out.

All aspects of the tour were great! The food was delicious. My only complaint is the lack of transparency when it comes to drinks during the cooking class. Beer was offered to everyone, which seemed like a nice gesture, and then at the end of the class we were asked to pay for it, which wouldn't have been a problem if it was communicated to us beforehand or if there was some sort of price list. I would definitely recommend this tour!

Our family of 7 attended this cooking class last night. An abundance of meals and sauces were learned. We then shared our meal which was abundant. Value for money and very professional. Set in a gorgeous location.

The market tour and the cooking class was great, our guide was very nice and explained us a lot of things about Vietnamese culture and cooking. I recommend it to all foreigners who want to discover more deeply the Vietnamese culture !

The location was great and the guide was very sociable & skillful in explaining everything. We had such a great time learning 4 delicious Vietnamese dishes.

I absolutely loved this experience! Coco is very thoughtful and has created a wonderful opportunity to learn about the local cuisine. Not just cuisine, but history of the area as well as Vietnam in general. On the back of her motorbike, she takes you all around to out-of-the-way locals only places and also into old town for some traditionally tourist things and to very well-known places for their secret recipe specialty ! I loved all the foods and did not know how many types of bahn (rice cakes) there were. All different and had a unique place at the table. She was able to tell me everything I wanted to know about the way things were prepared and the stories behind them. Her English is impressive and communication was easy. I was stuffed silly and we even skipped one place. I just could not have asked for a better experience!

We had a great morning learning about the traditional Vietnamese food ingredients and where to buy them in the market. We prepared the food step by step with as much help as we needed. The food was delicious and I do very little cooking normally. The location and quality of the environment were excellent. The staff were helpful and entertaining! Well worth doing.

Could not have asked for a better cooking class in Vietnam! My friend and I did the afternoon/evening class and we have nothing but great things to say about it. It was very hands on and easy to follow along, the atmosphere was great (the lantern area is beautiful at night) and the food was delicious! Trang was our teacher for the class and she was amazing - could not recommend this experience more!

it was fun. it was a great opportunity to learn about the ingredients which use often in Vietnam. it felt more delicious bcz it was made of fresh ingredients. but there was little sense of accomplishment when one dish was made by several people. Other than that, it was good!

A brilliant experience, more than just a cooking class. Our guide gave us a tour of the local market and explained all of the local foods to us. The boat trip was very enjoyable and allowed everyone to get to know each other before the class started. This finished with a relaxing foot massage and cocktail while the chefs prepared the kitchen. The cooking class itself was really good. Huge range of dishes and techniques were taught. Really nice setting with very friendly chefs and instructors. To top it all of, my wife was ill and couldn't come on the course, so the staff made an extra one of each dish to send home with me for her. Highly recommended!!

What a very comprehensive experience, getting taken through the markets was really informative although felt a bit rushed. The ride on the river to the class was really enjoyable but the class itself was incredible - the chef was a true entertainer and very good at inspiring his students. The class was run very efficiently but you certainly didn't have time to think too long or muck around. The food was simple but yummy, and then after we'd already eaten heaps we sat down to a full on lunch. Nice to meet other 'cooks' over lunch. Highly recommended although I would book directly with Red Bridge as Cookly were more expensive as they are a 3rd party. Can't wait to try out all the recipes.

This was an excellent tour and an amazing experience from start to finish. The fantastic tour guide, the tour through the local fresh food market and beautiful herb garden and then on to our our cooking experience. The chef was not only a great instructor but also very entertaining. Then putting to practice what we were shown and finally finishing with a wonderful lunch. Highly recommend this experience

My boyfriend and I had a really nice experience at Tra Que Water Wheel cooking class. We took a bike ride to the property, went to a local morning market in Hoi An, enjoyed a herbal foot bath/massage, toured around the herb gardens and made lots of delicious food - all with a private guide. The guide was really funny and everything went great. The price was a bit expensive compared to other experiences in Vietnam, but after the class I felt that it was worth the money. I especially loved that our guide taught us all about the different fruits, vegetables and herbs used in Vietnamese cuisine.

My partner and I had heard about Linh and Golden Lotus who had done a cooking class there previously and had a fantastic experience so we decided to book. The class was really enjoyable and hands on which we liked, and afterwards we got to eat all of our yummy creations! Linh was so nice and helpful and we got sent all of the recipes after the class to recreate at home back in Australia.

WE LOVED THIS DAY! It started off with an on time pick up at our hotel. We loved our guide that showed us around the market, filled us with knowledge of the local people and market. We then hopped on a boat and took a nice trip on the river. We arrived at the coco nut boats and that was a highlight. We enjoyed boating down the river with a local that was joyful and singing and just a lot of fun. We learned to fish and tried to catch some crabs. Then we went to our location for the cooking class. Everything was so organised and they even had a vegetarian option. The food was delicious and they were so patient when teaching us. We could not wait to eat each dish and we went home with the cook book of what we made. We finished off with being dropped off at our hotel with a happy and full stomach. A CLASS WE WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER, thank you for the fun, good food and experience.

We had the most amazing trip with Tony. He was very knowledgeable and showed us some amazing things. We really enjoyed our trip to the market and saw how Vietnamese buy their produce and loved learning about the unique vegetables and fruit. The crab fishing was a highlight for the children and they had lots of fun catching purple crabs. We also learnt how to throw the fishing nets like a pro. Our cooking experience was very hands on and we learnt different techniques for our recipes. The food was delicious and we know we will enjoy cooking these at home with our family! Thank you Tony for making us feel so welcome and sharing your knowledge with us.

So much more than we expected. Short bike ride to a local market where she introduced us to many of the foods used based on our likes/interest, Soon bought some fruits and vegetables to add to the lunch menu. Then a lovely ride through the rice fields to Tra Que village. Water buffalo ride was short but fun. Wandering around their farm.and tasting/smelling the different plants. Planting a small garden plot. Lovely foot massage. Short but fun boat ride - amazing what can be made from palm leaves. Making rice paper was really cool. Cooking class fun and informative. Food delicious. Would recommend very highly!!!!

The class started off with a trip to the market and our host explaining a lot about the food we saw and the overall market experience. The boat ride and bamboo boat ride was really enjoyable and a good way to see a part of Hoi an I wouldn’t have otherwise seen. I felt it was a bit unnecessary to have a buffalo ride and the distance was easily walkable. The range of foods we cooked and techniques we learnt were excellent and all the food was really tasty. The food hygiene was good and the setting of the class was lovely. Definitely good value for money.

This class was so much more than cooking, and made for a great morning in Hoi An! Loved it and would recommend.

Had a great experience at the Red Bridge cooking school! Got to make different Vietnamese dishes and learn about all the flavours used. The class was very well organised in a lovely setting and would definitely recommend to others wanting try their hand and making traditional dishes.

We had a great day with Mo and her family. The cooking class takes place in a peaceful and quiet village close to Hoi An. Pick up from our hotel was organised! During our tour on the local market we learned a lot about the different ingredients and bought everything for our dishes! Mo is a very experienced chef and showed us every step. Afterwards we prepared our own dishes. We chose Menu 1 and it was very delicious! We chose this class because the focus was on cooking, which was great! Would definitely recommend the cooking class, if you are searching a personal experience in a small group and want to support a local family! Thanks Mo!

The class was perfect. We took a boat from Hoi An to an island where the class was held. We got an insight into the family’s life who runs the cooking course and the history of the island, which we learnt a lot about the culture from. The cooking was great; it all tasted incredible and were things I hadn’t tried before. Vi’s English was great, and she really made our experience special. Her instructions were easy to follow and she helped us when we need it. I would highly recommend this class!!

Fantastic experience, with a short trip over the market, a 45 min boat trip, a crab fishing experience in a local round boat, and the preparation of four dishes (see photos). Great food and good hosts. Can only recommend :)!

The class with Chef Danny was a blast. We were whisked away by scooter to the market where we learned a bit more about the things for sale and Danny picked out some of the ingredients we’d be using later that night. Back at his place we jumped right in to cooking, and Danny taught us to make a delicious Vietnamese menu all while keeping us entertained. In the end we had a lot of fun and the meal was totally delicious. Thank you, Chef Danny and your family for welcoming us into your home for this experience. Highly recommend!

The whole experience was exactly what was advertised, prompt pick up from our hostel, cute boat ride through the streams and a well organised cooking class with free refreshments on arrival. Our teachers were extremely chatty and enthusiastic, happy to answer all our stupid questions. Extremely good value for money!!!

A lovely morning out. The visit to the local markets was Great, and really fun to go fishing on the bucket boats, although would have been nice to have more of an emphasis on fishing. The cooking course was simple but traditional and delicious food- plenty of it! Probs my a bit basic for an experienced cook but I learnt a lot that I will use back home!

We had a lovely evening in the cookery school. The boat trip at the beginning was really fun and we loved cruising down the river. The cookery school is in a beautiful location and everything was really well organised. We worked in a group of six and it was nice preparing and cooking together. Overall it was a worthwhile and enjoyable experience!

A really good time was had by all the family. The market tour was really interesting, the journey by boat and bamboo circular boat was fun. Finally the cooking class was informative, useful but above all, the final resulting 4 dishes very tasty. Not only did we leave with some new skills but we were all completely full!

From start to finish the morning was fantastic. The guide was so friendly and informative when we went around the market. We all went on a boat and then on a bamboo boat, that was fun. When we got off the boat we all got on a cart which was pulled by a buffalo. Next we all received a foot and shoulder massage, that was lovely . Finally we all started our cooking class. The chef was super nice and very friendly towards everybody. A very enjoyable experience.

The Cooking Class was great. Sunny was such a lovely, funny and nice guide. Her English was very good as well. We very much recommend this tour! First you go shopping at the market and Sunny explains all the herbs and other ingredients you need later. After that you take a boat trip to some small island where yiu cook 4 meals. Sunny explained everything very well and the food was just delicious!!!!

We learned a lot and the teacher was very very nice. We loved the market tour, the boat ride and to learn a lot about the local food, the ingredients, and special techniques. The dishes we cooked were really nice and fulfilled everything that I wanted to learn in the Vietnamese kitchen. The place were the cooking class took place was so beautiful and quiet. We got picked up at our hotel and they also brought us back to Hoi An city center which was really nice and a good service.

We really enjoyed the class, had a great time and learned to cook some lovely food

This cooking class was hands-down one of my favourite experiences in Southeast Asia. The class takes place in an outdoor kitchen on a beautiful island, the ingredients are deliciously fresh, and you learn so much more about Vietnamese culture than just a few recipes. It’s hard to do the class justice with words, so don’t hesitate, just sign up! You’ll finish the day with a full stomach, a fantastic repertoire of local cuisine, and a new appreciation of Vietnamese rural life. Overall, it’s amazing value for money- I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this class to anyone!!

Very nice and fun cooking class! Definitely recommended :)

The cooking class was more than I expected. Lovely tourist guide, we had an amazing time and also got a massage when we arrived at the village. You have to do this one!!

We had a private session due to cancellation. Ms Linh was fantastic. A REAL shopping tour in the local market for vegetables, meat and fish. We also got an introduction to spices. Going to her restaurant and kitchen was also a nice experience. Nice and clean. She took us through 3,5 hours of learning and cooking and eating all dishes afterwards. Why: no boattrip, no massage or manicure. JUST COOKING. We give Ms Linh (and her helpers) our best and finest recommendations.

The guide Thom was very friendly, spoke very good English and explained a lot. We first took a boat to an island where the cooking took place and where Thom’s grandma lives. She showed us how the rice is processed and we each got to make our own ricepaper. The meals were delicious, unfortunately we couldn’t eat it all because we were too full. The location was an open space in quiet and beautiful nature. Also, the facilities were really clean and everything was well organised. We were only four people in the group so we had the chance to go back the Hoi An by bicycle. Thanks for the nice day!

Well run class in great location. The boat trip was an interesting way to see the river. Sunny ( don't know spelling) was friendly, ready to answer any questions and spoke good English. The food she showed us how to cook was delicious and so much of it - don't eat breakfast if doing the opening tour.

Tour guide spring was so sweet and kind the course was perfect!

whole day was perfect, our host and chef Be was fantastic and very knowledgable and made the cooking fun! extras like the foot massage and basket boat trip made this class stand out from any other. highly recommend.

We expected a simple tour through the Coconut Forest and then a short cooking course, but we were in fact surprised by the quality of the tour, equipment and the skills of the guides and chef! The boat tour was entertaining and so was the cooking. We were a small group of 5 people. We did all the cooking together with the chef and then had a delicious meal! We can recommend this cooking tour to any travelers with interest in cooking and vietnamese food culture! Thomas and Laura from Germany :)

The amazing cooking tour started with shopping around the central market to get fresh veggies, herbs, meat and shrimp, then headed off with 2 boat rides to Thuan Tinh Island. Trang was our guide and cooking teacher, her instruction was informative yet enjoyable so that we could have so much fun with cooking. Thank you Trang, you are awesome!

It was so much fun! Highly recommend to everyone. We had a family of 6 in our group and a few friend group and couples. Great way to Meet new people as you are traveling. But the tour guide did a fun job and she was fun loving and bought so much personality to the cooking class. All the recipe was so delicious! The view was amazing, and the market place was very educational. I learn a lot, ate a lot and had a very good time! Thanks!!

Thoroughly enjoyed the day, an authentic experience with (expected) level of tourism targeting but not over the top. Cooking component was well organised, engaging and tasty! Our chef, Van, was full of energy and had us entertained!

This class is worth every penny!!! My friend and I had a fantastic experience with our guide, Nhu. Nhu was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and a great chef! You receive so much for the low price including tons of food! Learned a lot the culture in Hoi An and can’t wait to prepare some of the dishes back home! Highly recommend the class.

My partner and I booked this tour the night before and were very pleased with our choice. They may be new on Cookly but they have an astounding pool of reviews for their tour on TripAdvisor. The guide, Long, was very friendly and accommodating. He did everything to make us feel comfortable. We were lucky because we were the only two tourists on the tour that afternoon. He picked us up from our hostel in Hoi An, brought us to the market (which was pretty silent because we booked the afternoon tour) to get some ingredients, sent us to his little restaurant to have a cup of sugarcane juice before getting on the basket boat tour around the coconut forest. Long was the one who rowed the boat, made little souvenirs for us, brought us to see the fisherman cast his net, brought us to do some crab fishing and gave us a little thrilling ride on the boat. Thereafter, we returned to his restaurant and was given a bottle of cold water to rest. We then began our cooking lesson, which was demonstrated by his sister-in-law and translated by Long himself. At the end of the cooking session, we had a whole table of food - spring rolls, a salad, the Vietnamese pancake, seafood stir fry noodles, and also a special dish - clams cooked in lemongrass and chilli. We were also given some mangoes for dessert. Long then sent us back to our homestay with our filled bellies, recipes for the dishes we have prepared, and a lot of wonderful experiences. Long was very funny, informative, and I liked that he offered to take many pictures for us. He could also communicate well in English. Thank you, Long! We are honoured to be your first guests from Cookly :)

Such a great experience today. The course was great, very thorough and also super quick as well. Didn’t waste any time which was nice. They were very thoughtful and amazing hosts and my group was also wonderful which is always a plus. Nhu was a GEM and the owner of the cooking school was also such a great man that came up after to make sure we all had a great time. Plus the food was also outstanding 😍 they accommodated to me being a vegan which was very much appreciated. Thank you!!!

what a wonderful way to experience local cuisine and meet people. Nhi, our guide and chef has such a lovely and cheery personality and is so knowledgeable about all food. We had Vegan as well as meaty menu and all of it was delicious and cooked with love. Morning market experience is definitely worth waking up a bit earlier that usual!

Great activities from the boat ride to the coracle ride to buffalo pulling the cart. Neck and shoulder massage was great albeit all too short with a lovely foot massage. The cooking was great with a fantastic chef instructing us being Truong and her helpers we made mango seafood salad, pork and mushrooms pancake, rice pancake and bacon and shrimp pancake wrapped in rice paper and then sautéed chicken with lemongrass and chilli. All of the food was fantastic. We were also shown how to garnish the dishes making cucumber and tomato flowered, cucumber butterflies. When we were first picked up we were taken to the market and shown various spices, oils and vegetables. I would recommend using Sabirama

Class was a lots of fun and instructions were clear and dishes were tasty! We started off doing a market tour where our guide explained what we were buying and for what dishes. We then took a boat and bus to the cooking facility. It was extremely clean and we'll organized. There were about 13 people on our tour split into two groups...so attention was very individualized. They gave us a recipe book and long chop sticks for cooking. Look forward to trying out these dishes at home.

Fun and enjoyable way to spend a morning in Hoi An. Great staff. Great equipment and location. Fluent English speaking instructors.

We had an amazing morning on the cooking class. Hon, our chef, was super friendly and incredibly knowledgable, talking us around the market explaining in detail about the foods, herbs etc. and answering any questions we had. The whole experience was really great from the market visit in the morning, the gorgeous boat ride through the coconut forest and the class itself. Hon talked us through the dishes expertly and his instructions were really easy to follow, as well as picking up tips on technique along the way. Would really recommend this class to everyone, great value and feels like a really genuine experience of Vietnamese cuisine!

It was difficult to pick a cooking class as there are so many in Hoi An. We ended up choosing Green Bamboo because of the apparently relaxed and familial atmosphere and because we could decide what to cook. We weren’t wrong!! We loved discovering the morning market with Van, it made us more at ease with the Vietnam way of buying fresh ingredients. After we enjoyed a nice coffee break (for me the best coffee I had in Vietnam so far) before going over to Van’s and start cooking. We learned a lot, laughed a lot and had the chance to sample 11 excellent dishes. Everyone had a go at cooking in front of the others so it was very inclusive and lots of fun! We would highly recommend this class if you’re looking for an authentic cooking experience. We didn’t notice that we went 1h over time because we were enjoying ourselves so much. The recipe book at the end was also a definite plus! Thanks Van for having us over :)

It was a great morning and our host was lovely.

Chef Danny and his wife greeted us on their motorbikes at our hostel and took us to the local market. Danny showed us the different vegetables, meat, and fish they sell at the market. He even picked up some veggies and shrimp that we would use in the meal we were cooking last night. We then went to his garden where Danny picked some herbs and lettuce we would use while cooking. The whole cooking experience was so much fun and so intimate as it was just me, my boyfriend, and Danny’s family in his home. After cookin we ate our meal and everything tasted delicious! Once we were finished eating we took some final photos and Danny emailed us some of the pictures his wife took of us, the recipies, and some of Danny’s favorite pictures from Hoi An in general. Overall it was definitely a highlight of our time in Vietnam! 10/10 would recommend!!!

This was most enjoyable. Tin Tin was fab. Arranged a well organised tour. The short boat trip was fun and they provide traditional hats. We were split into 2 groups and all took part in making the meal. It’s a lovely setting and best of all you get to cook your evening meal. Thank you Tim Tin we had a great time.

The package was fun and informative. We enjoyed all of the many activities. Our guide was very friendly and we learnt a lot about the Vietnamese way of life. A highlight for my daughter was the water buffalo interaction. She loved him and we were allowed plenty of time to ride and pet him, not rushed on at all. The cooking was fun and food delicious. Will be recommending this tour to everyone.

The whole experience with nhu and her team was fantastic. Going through the market and lovely boat trip, before a delightful foot massage and drink surrounded by orchards over looking a koi pond really set the scene. The cooking class was so much fun and the food absolutely delicious. Would highly recommend this to everyone.

I so thoroughly enjoyed this tour and Nhu was such a fantastic tour guide and cooking teacher. She was patient she explained each step in the cooking class well and was such fun to be with. Nhu has a great sense of humour! I’m so proud I learnt how to cook 4 Vietnamese dishes. Thankyou Nhu for such a fun filled and very informative day. Cookly is lucky to have you on their team!

A must do if visiting Hoi An

Small group of 4, from the boat ride in, to the massages we received, to the actually cooking. Couldn’t pick a fault anywhere, very enjoyable day, with a great teacher. Would highly recommend

The cooking was fantastic. We are very much enjoyed Sarbirama Class. All the team are kind & well organized. We made local dishes & enjoyed after cooking. We also visited local market & learned many ingredients. Transportation(pick up & drop off) was smooth as well. Buffalo & dogs are very friendly. Our guide, Nhu did very good work. Definitely I will recommend this class when you visit Hoi An.

We cannot say enough good things about this experience!! We ended up getting a private cooking class, and our guide, Trang, was wonderful! She showed us local foods they grew on the property, was very fun and personable, explained each ingredient individually, and her English was phenomenal. The food was some of the best we have had in Vietnam, and we are so thankful we had this experience so we can attempt to replicate some of the meals at home. Trang even wrote down our email so she could send us the recipes! I highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Hoi An!

We had a great time at the market with Tintin. She kindly explained the different herbs and noodles and how to get the best quality of meat. The boat ride through the coconut trees was nice. My boyfriend has a severe peanut allergy and they altered the menu to make sure we could make everything recepies without any danger. We met a very nice English couple and we had lots of fun with Tintin. The food was really good; I cant wait to make it at home :)

This is an awesome experience for us. We chose this package as it includes market tour, bamboo boat ride, buffalo ride, massage and of course the cooking! Highly recommended to those who want to further appreciate the Vietnamese culture. We don’t cook but the guide (her name is You) is so encouraging and patient with us, we did 4 Vietnamese dishes! Enjoyed the entire experience!

Loved it fun relaxed informative the guide was lovely .. worth the money especially if you are a foodie like us .. thanks so much and went to hai restaurant last night the duck was incredible

Dishes we cooked were well explained and turned out well for all of our group from 9 year old to 79 year old. Market visit to buy ingredients and boat ride there was good introduction - Ying our guide & cooking teacher good fun and share her cooking tips

What a great day from the informative market tour and leisurely boat ride to the yummy cooking class and learning about the family. Thom was wonderful and it was a pleasure spending the day with her and our group. Can’t wait to try the recipes at home.

It was good that each of us had our own cooking station and we eat what we cooked. The venue was lovely and meeting grandma was a nice touch! The whole process of making rice crepes was an eye-opener. So much work, skill and time involved in cooking each delicate piece! Overall great fun and an interesting day out. I would also like to commend the cooking instructor as well. She was charming and very knowledgeable about the use of local herbs.

We did the afternoon session. The tour was great and Danny is really fun. I’m vegetarian and we brought the ingredients for my meal. The best part is getting back to his home in a vegetable village. A tasty local drink had us ready for our class. It was one-stop entertainment. The dishes were fun to make and the smell made our taste buds water. His family is a delight. We were treated to entertain from his 5-year-old as we ate. A very happy boy who liked people. His wife is very attentive and makes sure you have all you need. His daughter blew me away with her English. I recommend everyone to cook with Danny.

We did the 4-7pm which was perfect as what you cook becomes your evening meal, the venue was very clean and the food cooking experience all hands-on with people taking things in turns to prepare the whole meal. Would highly recommend. Pickup from the hotel and a short boat ride into the venue is included. All the food was very fresh and lots of it so arrive there hungry!!

Recommend very much, we had a great time cooking traditional dishes. At the end we were so stuffed that we had to roll out of the house!

We enjoyed the cooking class very much! Nice tour at the market, learned a lot from our guide Tranh, who was very cheerful, helpful and kind. Great short boat trip to a peaceful place, great cooking class. Perfect experience!

We did this cooking class. My partner has some allergies that at are usually a bit tricky to manage but they did an amazing job ensuring he gets the same experience as the rest of us. Danny and his entire family welcomed us with an open heart. We really enjoyed every second. I can recommend this place 100%

Trang was a terrific guide and teacher. I would highly recommend the morning market tour and boat ride if you are eager to learn about how Vietnamese people buy and cook their food.
