Excellent experience. This is a highlight of our holiday. - We were recommended this cooking class and boat trip. We weren’t really sure what to expect, but went along anyway. It was absolutely wonderful. We were picked up from our hotel and we went to the local market to pick out our ingredients. On the way the class we stopped for a coconut boat trip, this brought us back to the cookery class. Firstly, each dish was wonderfully demonstrated by Kieu. We got to taste the experts food and then we were let loose to produce our own dishes. Although not up to the standard of Kieu’s we were guided to make a very nice four course lunch. Great fun and you leave feeling full . I would highly recommend this.

Cooking in Hoi An - My sibling and I went on this tour and got picked up from our hotel at 8:20am. The tour guide Hon, was super friendly and took the time to learn all of our names. He showed us around the local market to pick up fresh ingredients for our cooking class, and gave us lots of fun info about the sourcing of ingredients and the way of life. Afterwards, we went to the coconut boat on the river, which was fun and we tried catching crabs, but they weren’t biting. We could see the crabs though! Next, Hon demonstrated the old process of making rice paper from the unhusked rice, and we even got to try out some of the processes too. Lastly, we finally got to the cooking class and it was phenomenal. Hon clearly demonstrated and explained each step of the recipe for each dish, and even let us taste test his work before we got to try on our own. It was fun, educational, and delicious!! At the end, we were dropped off back at our hotel for 1pm.

Delicious cooking class - Our guide Hon was fantastic! He took us to the local market to pick out the freshest ingredients which we would use in the cooking class. Hon expertly explained and demonstrated each dish then let us have a go. Every dish was delicious! Hon is a great cook, very friendly and very knowledgeable. In between we had bamboo basket ride. Overall a great day learning about Vietnamese food. Thank you Hon.

Brilliant cooking, market and boat ride - Trang was it guide and cook for one of the best days. First a tour of the food market where we bought the food we needed for our cooking lesson. The market is amazing, the variety of noodles and vegetables is amazing. We then had a hilarious coconut boat ride, just so funny and great fun . Then the best cooking class I've ever done. Cooked delicious food which I can't wait to cook at home. Highly recommend this trip. Thank you Trang
