We really enjoyed the trip. The tour guide, Phi Phi was great, very friendly and so informative. The lunch was gorgeous, so fresh and beautiful flavours. We got to visit some great places out in the countryside and was fun to travel in the jeep, and meet the local people. Thoroughly recommend this tour.

Absolutely brilliant tour of the countryside and seeing the local way of life watching and doing mat weaving , rice noodle cooking, wood carving and rice wine tasting. All totally fabulous. Great driver and guide both very knowledgable locals with great sense of humour. If you have only time for one tour - make it this one!

Really fun activity and you get to see the real Vietnam close up. Great places visited and a really lovely lunch to end it all

Great Tour

Stephanie_C, Mar 2026
Great way to see how the locals live and earn their living. Wonderful local people. Lots of different experiences. Food, mat weaving, wood carving and great lunch!

Great trip

Paul_W, Mar 2026
The best jeep trip possible. Toured the countryside, saw rice wine making, did wood carving, made noodles and saw mat making all in the villages with genuine Viet people. Way off the beaten track. Our guide, Vy was prompt and sorted a fantastic lunch. He was informative and funny without being pushy. One of the best trips we’ve ever done.

Great tour of the countryside

Jeep with Vu

Bob_D, Feb 2026
Great afternoon with Vu and our driver. I suspect the places we visited will not exist in a few years. The noodle place is just one of 5 left from the original 200. The weaving place family treated the 3 of us like long lost friends.got to taste a bunch of rice wine in a very traditional place...pig and all!! Lunch had a good menu in a spot over water. Just a fun few hours.

Excellent for family with kids.

SiHui_Y, Dec 2025
We had a wonderful cultural tour in Hoi An with our guide, Cuong, who is clearly passionate about his work and speaks excellent English. Riding in a vintage Vietnam War jeep was such a cool experience—our 10-year-old son was absolutely fascinated! The tour was perfect for families, with plenty of hands-on activities like straw-mat weaving, wood carving, and making rice noodles. It was a meaningful way to learn about Vietnam’s traditional crafts, away from the busier, more touristy parts of Hoi An. Lunch was delicious too! Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and engaging experience.

PM tour with Cuong

Judith_S, Nov 2025
We had a fantastic guide Cuong We got to see typical village life We made rice noodles, had a go at making bed matts, chisselled wood. Got to sample rice wine Our driver was very accommodating

Great tour to experience local culture

Jo_C, Nov 2025
This was a fantastic tour and our tour guide was awesome. We got to see and experience the local culture and how people live in regional Vietnam. We got to try the local ‘happy wine’ and see how it is made, did some mat weaving, tried making rice noodles and did some wood carving (much harder than it looks). Overall a great experience and would definitely recommend.

Most interesting to get...

Peter_T, Nov 2025
Most interesting to get outside the city into the countryside, especially after so many people impacted by the floods. Underscores the resilience of the Vietnamese people. Our guide was superb and that makes all the difference.

Fabulous tour!

My sister and I did this tour and we were not disappointed. Fifi was an amazing guide full of information and great sense of humour. The lunch at the start was amazing. We loved all of our stops from woodworking, weaving, happy water and rice noodle making. It was great fun to have a try of these activities.

A beautiful cultural...

A beautiful cultural experience, away from the city and traffic. Visit the countryside and understand the types of crop cultivation, cooking techniques, weaving traditions and the people that make Vietnam. You won’t regret this tour. Thanks Tham for your storytelling and guidance this afternoon!

Great to get out of town and see real life

Ros_S, Apr 2025
Great fun. The jeep driver was excellent as was the lunch stop. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole journey so much fun. We got to meet some local families — experiences we never would have had on our own. Highly recommended

A really lovely tour

Kim_H, Apr 2025
Loved this more than I thought i would. Guides were lovely. We got to do some low key but wholesome activities. All the local vendors were so inviting. It was nice to do something simple yet delightful

Highly recommend very enjoyable & informative

Karen_H, Mar 2025

Great tour!

Ashley_F, Jan 2025
Excellent trip out to the countryside. We definitely got off the beaten path and were able to see parts of Vietnam that we otherwise wouldn't have. The people we met were very friendly and eager to tell us about their craft. The guide was very knowledgeable and our family had a great time! Highly recommend!

Great Tour of Hoi An

Jeff_H, Nov 2024
Our tour was excellent, blending culture, food and a little rice wine along the way! Our driver was great, polite, helpful and cautious. He helped our guide who was excellent with details, information and humor! Great tour, we would highly recommend! Thanks again!

Who else will you ride around in an army jeep?

Kelly_S, Nov 2024
An absolutely top notch experience! The guides created a fun, relaxing atmosphere with a perfect combination of history and local interaction. I felt like I got a chance to meet average locals in a much more real way than on other tours.

It could have been better…….

Rod_R, Oct 2024
There were many good things about the tour however the guide l was with in the jeep couldn’t speak English so the interaction to ask questions from driving from one spot to another was nonexistent It would of been ideal to have an esky with them with water in it like other tours and l would have been happy to pay for it of course although there were stops along the way to get drinks

Just a wonderful time!

Kellie_S, Oct 2024
What an amazing day we had - great things to see and do, wonderful food and interactions that the kids will remember forever!
