Loan_P, Dec 2023

This was no exaggeration the coolest tour activity I have ever done. This is my 3rd time in Hanoi so I wanted to do something different from the typical Ha Long Bay excursion, city walking tour, or guided food tour. Our guide Son was incredibly knowledgeable and funny, he was the highlight of our entire trip to Hanoi. The tour starts with a lunch of your choice, we told Son we hadn't had bun cha yet and he took us to his favorite local spot which was incredible- I highly recommend you request the same! After lunch we started with actually making a pottery piece on the wheel with an instructor. Even if you have never done this before, the instruction is so good that you are guaranteed to finish at least 1 cup to later on paint and fire in the kiln. While the piece dries before painting, Son leads a wonderful factory tour showing every step of the production process and you have a chance to shop in the market. I never write lengthy reviews like this but this tour went above and beyond my expectations, for the price this is absolutely worth it and will be such a memorable experience in Hanoi guaranteed.
