Amazing Experience
We had such a great experience with Rin as our photographer in Hoi An! From start to finish, he was excellent at communicating with us and made the entire experience feel easy and comfortable.
He did a fantastic job helping us with posing and suggesting different poses throughout the shoot, which made a huge difference—especially when we weren’t sure what to do in front of the camera. He was patient, encouraging, and made us feel completely at ease.
Rin also went above and beyond by giving us great recommendations for what to do after the photoshoot, including some of the best places to visit around Hoi An.
We absolutely loved working with him and would highly recommend Rin to anyone looking for a talented, friendly, and professional photographer!

Yum!
Cute authentic location in Hoi An fringes, good chef very entertaining and interactive, food was fun to make and delicious to eat. Pick up from centre Hoi A went well, all well organised. My only complaint, is that the Viator website said 4:30 pick up in most places, the small print mentioned 4:15 pick up, and the lady that got in touch to arrange details with us tried to make us accept a pick up at 4:10. Given we had plans before to fit in, this cause quite some stress. Please line up your timings Viator!!

Super fun and engaging coffee making class!
Such a fun experience and one of our favorite activities in Hoi An! You get to make and try 5 different types of Vietnamese coffee, and we had a great time throughout the whole class - lots of fun music and great vibes in the room.
Our instructors, including “Justin Bieber” and “Bruno Mars,” were awesome and brought the perfect energy. They kept things fun while also teaching us about the history of Vietnamese coffee and the ethical practices behind the business.
The team was also super accommodating to our dietary restrictions (my wife is gluten-free and vegetarian, and I am allergic to cashews and pistachios) and also ensured that non-dairy options were available as we created the different coffees. The facility was very clean and hygienic, with staff constantly bringing us new materials and ingredients for each recipe.
It’s a wonderful family-run business and was the perfect activity while we waited to pick up our clothes from the Cloth Market. Would absolutely recommend adding this to your Hoi An itinerary!

Must do when in Hoi An!
One of the (of probably the) most amazing experience we have had in Vietnam! From the early morning market to the boat trip to grandma’s kitchen on the river Island, everything was amazing. Thuum (Thom) and het family are fabulous hosts! Friendly, knowledgeable and of course great cooks (and instructors). We have learned a lot, had great fun doing karaoke on the boat and the meal was so tasty! Would definitely book again if I had the chance!

Beautiful ancient city Hoi an
This tour was amazing 😻 specially the tour guide name Dan !!! She was awesome with us, very engaging and knowledgeable about everything related to the tour. Blue mountains are beautiful but Hoi an definitely my favorite one. That ancient city is like to be in a set of an Asian movie, very colorful. It’s feels like you want have a photo in every corner , chanel or the shops. At night they turn on the lights around and jumping into the canoe on the river with your own candle wuaooo it’s magical. I recommend this tour for the professionalism and the beauty involved. One more time Dan the tour guide she is adorable.
Thanks

Cooking with Hi
Had a great experience and Hi was an amazing guide! He explained the produce in the markets and each step of the cooking so detailed that you can tell he loves the food. The spring rolls, bahn xeo and papaya salad were delicious! Cannot wait to go home and make the meals. Coconut bamboo boats were fun, but had the most fun cooking.

Great local spots and guide
We had THE BEST TIME with Tinh, he was an amazing guide not only to unique local spots but also was fun and interesting and told us all about local culture. We had four great cocktails at different unique local places which were also all delicious. Very great tour for anyone visiting Hoi An and I would highly recommend.

Great way to explore Hoi An!
It’s a great tour if you want to see ‘behind the scenes’ in Hoi An - experience the life and culture of the town and local food, and learn more about Vietnamese culture from the locals. The two small businesses we visited were very unexpected. We also tried a lot of great food. Really enjoyed this long walking tour with Swan and Thuy!

Amazing experience. Highly recommended!
YES CHEF! Tram was an amazing person to do this tour with, very lovely experience. I would highly recommend this tour, she is very enthusiastic, knowledgeable about the Vietnamese foods that we made and has many years of experience! Every dime spent on this tour is worth your time!!! Our day started off at the local markets where we picked out ingredients for the dishes we were going to cook down later the day, she told us the purpose and intention behind each ingredient, it was a very thrilling and educational experience. Next, we took a car ride and then visited her place & did the coconut boat ride. The ride was very fun, with friendly boat staff that took us around the river. We then went back, took a break and started our cooking class! The cooking class was very fun, engaging & Tram was very fun to communicate and talk with! At the end, we had the food we ate, along with some cheap paid drinks (beer/soft drinks). Overall a great experience, and would definitely come back to do something like this next time I am back in Vietnam.

Unforgettable experience!!
Absolutely amazing experience! One of my favorite things I’ve done in Hoi An. The family who runs the business and teaches you are so kind and knowledgeable. They made us laugh the whole time and their expertise shows in every detail. Cannot recommend enough!!

Hoi An exceeded our expectations.
We had a wonderful tour of Hoi An with our guide Vân. The city’s beauty exceeded our expectations. It’s really stunning. With that beauty, however, there were a lot of other people who wanted to see it and it got very crowded as evening approached. As the city filled up with people, Vân kept us one step ahead of the crowds. She knew right when to get us on the boat to avoid long lines. We waited only a few minutes to get on the boat, but there were super long lines waiting when we got off. She was extremely nice and really helped us to understand Hoi An and the local people and culture with stories of her childhood in Hoi An. We were very glad to have her as our guide. We highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to visit Hoi An for the first time.

I had an amazing time...
I had an amazing time from start to finish! The tour guide Bien is super knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. They kept the group smaller (<10 people) so it felt that we dont have to wait around too much. They even gave you a banh mi with the boat ride at the end. 10/10 would recommend! Dont forget to tip your bus driver, tour guide and boat driver.

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.
