Loved It! - I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. We cooked 4 dishes that were delicious. They also cooked up a dish from the food we bought at the market. Dont have a big breakfast, as we left VERY full.

Amazing cultural tour! - The tour was amazing with Long and chef Duyen. The basket boat ride was the highlight, we caught live fish and a tiny crab from the river. Well worth it!

Definitely recommend! - Amazing day out. The basket boat was a fun-filled experience with fishing, crab fishing and lots of good photo opportunities. The cooking class was also brilliant and gave us the chance to try lots of different local dishes. Our tour guide, Long, was fantastic!

Wonderful experience!! - It pleasantly turned out be quite a "private" tour because there were only four of us for the entire session. The van picked up us right from our hotel, and the English speaking tour guide brought us to the local market to see what they were selling. After that, we headed to the village, where we took the basket boat (looked like half a coconut), and experienced fishing and crabbing. The guy who paddle our boat was really enthusiastic! Through minimal English, we were still able to understand one another. He even marked his own palm tree spot and took the best photos of us! We couldn't help but laughed and admired his professionalism.
The boat ride was about an hour long (I think), before we headed back to shore for the cooking class. The chef was the wife of the tour guide, and she's been teaching cooking for the past 8 years! Kudos to her, we survived and made a total of four dishes, including the fried spring roll, pancakes, seafood noodles and a salad. They were so delish, but we were so full by the second dish. LOL
It was really a good experience learning how to make local dishes in a foreign country. I've enjoyed it and I hope tourists will also give it a shot to take in this wonderful experience too!
