So well taught an 8 year old can do it - Easily some of the best food we’ve had on our trip and the chef was a fantastic teacher and very patient. Even our 8 year d was able to follow along and participate in making all the dishes

A great experience that our whole group loved - We had a brilliant day with Tran visiting the market and cooking up dishes at her home. Our group included 5 teen boys who were a little sceptical but they all threw themselves into it and thoroughly enjoyed them selves. Tran is great, knowledgeable, funny and organised. The coconut boats are a little touristy but good fun. After the boats we cooked and ate at Tran’s - so much food! Would recommend this trip to anyone.

Fun, informative and very tasty - One of the best things we have done on our visit to Vietnam. From the outset Tram was the perfect tour guide, knowledgeable and great fun. We had a trip around the market, a ride in a coconut boat and then cooked a six course lunch which was absolutely delicious 😋

What a really great... - What a really great experience on the river. The coconut boats are everywhere and our guide was fun and although with not much English, we caught crabs and he even spun the boat around on the way back. Tran was very nice and explained all about the local area and people.
