Brilliant Evening with Kim - Eating and Exploring our way around Hoi An!
Brilliant evening spent with the excellent host Kim - covering every part of Hoi An giving us a crop to plate experience of the local food and history. We arrived at her house where she couldn't have been more welcoming. She greeted us with coffee to prepare us for the evening ahead and we had a lovely time getting to know everyone before the trip started. She is a proud woman from Hoi An and her knowledge, experience and willingness to share information about how the authentic local food processes work in Hoi An. We had great fun, visited local food suppliers and manufacturers, explored the rice Fields and markets and ate delicious home cooked Hoi An delicacies, in restaurants, on the side of the street and in local houses. Kim was top class, and made the tour for us. There was no question she didnt answer. Overall a brilliant day and a really good way to explore Hoi An and see a side you might never experience otherwise.

Sumptuous Cooking Tour
Cruise the day on a local boat ride 45mins to Grandma's Island with Thom *answering all our questions along the way. We heard about the locals shrimp & mullet farming. On the Island we walked 5mins to a tropical outdoor setting. A delicious Welcome drink on arrival (today was fresh passionfruit). A well organized day full of food, laughter and learning. We hand made our own rice pan cakes filled them with traditional Vietnamese cuisine and dipped in local dipping sauces. We made delicious spring rolls... and made a Vietnamese salad with pawpaw and prawns. There were Vegan and Vegetarian options for each dish. We finished with the Tuna fish Claypot served with rice. Grandma's kitchen shared a taste of their traditional Vietnamese pumpkin soup and an interesting desert. You will definitely not go hungry on this sumptuous tour.

Excellent cooking direction and assistance to produce a fun and quality meal. Hai was very attentive and keen for all to have a memorable experience. Boats were a pleasant addition to the main course with the market visit an informative lesson. Kitchen support staff very cheerful and attentive too.

An Adventure You will never forget it is very Memorable
This event you will not want it to end from start to finish, it seems that it was not long enough for me from the market to the boats it’s like having a big bash on the water. From there to the cooking class Tram is a great Chef and Host she takes her time with each student. Tram was very high vibes she’s funny overall I will do it again I recommend this is a must try it should be rated 100. Thanks Tram for a wonderful experience.

Great tour
This was a nice tour. Didn’t realize how amazing the Buddha statues are inside the caves at Marble mountain. Lots of stairs to climb to see everything. We had a couple of stops to see/sell marble carvings and silk production. We actually wound up buying a couple of framed embroidery pictures. The work they do is amazing. But there was no high pressure from either shop and we have come to expect it on tours. The boat ride in Hoi A was relaxing and Hoi An is beautiful but noisy with scooter horns and crowded.
Van was our guide. She did a great job of explaining the history and other pertinent information to us. This is a worthwhile tour.

Excellent experience with Rin
I had an excellent experience with Rin. He is incredibly patient, professional, and very talented. He took so many beautiful photos at every location and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. He even helped by holding my bag, which really shows how thoughtful and supportive he is. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great photographer.

Give lantern making a go - you will be surprised
What a great time my daughter and I had makong lanterns on a cloudy afternoon. The team were very helpful and made us laugh at their critique of our amateur lantern making skills. They were also very quickly able to rectify our mistakes. We would definitely recommend this very reasonable priced activity.

Fantastic, Family Run Experience!
This was such a fun and wholesome coffee making class and great value for money (you make 5 coffees and get given a surprise gift at the end). The family who run the class are so lovely, knowledgable and funny - they made the class engaging and I would reccomend it to anyone visiting Hoi An.

Book this class!!
We had the best time cooking with Rosie on this tour!! We started out with the morning market, where we learned about local produce and customs, went for a coffee, and then made 4 delicious dishes. Cannot recommend this enough! Rosie is so sweet and a great teacher. This will be a highlight of your trip for sure.

A must go place with such an amazing guide
Amazing guide, amazing transport, good itinerary what to say a must visit place for all only with such an amazing guide who would be well aware of the entire history. The guide also saved my money because I took a ticket for my daughter which was to be for 30,000 VND while I paid 150,000 VND the. She made me realised my mistake and I got my money back. Just one thing that driver was rude he dropped me around 200 feet away from my hotel I told him to drop me 200 feet ahead but he told just get down here.
Anyways, a good trip overall thanks to Viator and the guide.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Hailed as one of the country’s culinary capitals, Hoi An is the ideal place to master the basics of Central Vietnam’s distinctive cuisine, which fuses Southeast Asian and French styles. Sure, you could just feast on bahn mi and cao lau—but cooking classes in Hoi An teach you traditional Vietnamese cooking techniques and offer more insight into the local culinary culture than you’d get from dining at a restaurant alone. These classes often include a visit to a local market, a tour of a farm, and even a ride in a basket boat, for the ultimate epicurean experience.
