We had so much fun! This tour with Tony and Lan was AMAZING!
Seriously, this tour was incredible and totally deserves those five stars! Our driver, Tony, picked us up right on time at our hotel lobby, messaging as soon as he arrived. From the get-go, we knew it was going to be a fun day.
One of the coolest parts was learning how to make ceramics with a wonderful craftswoman. It was so much fun (and way harder than it looks! I totally ruined it at first!), and we even got to take home our masterpieces (read: cups, as simple as it gets) as souvenirs.
We got to make our own lanterns out of bamboo and silk (under the eyes of another skilled craftswoman, who made sure we didn't mess up too badly!). We were taught how to make them, fold them properly for storage, and set them up again.
Then, we got to ride a buffalo through the super muddy fields in the rain, but it was so much fun! Such a gentle and chill animal, too!
At our last stop, Lan patiently taught us how to make Vietnamese coffee, which is sooo good!
The best part of the afternoon, though? Definitely exploring the coconut forest in bamboo basket boats. It was like something out of a movie, and we even got to see how the locals fish with nets and stuff. We also got to try putting out our own net (and caught one fish!), and caught a crab with a piece of chicken on a string.
After all that fun, we got treated to a feast of local food made by our amazing host. It was all fresh, super tasty, and the perfect way to refuel before heading back.
Seriously, this tour was unforgettable! It had everything - culture, beautiful scenery, and amazing food. Tony, our driver, made sure everything ran smoothly, and Lan's friendliness and knowledge made the whole day even better. This tour is totally worth the money and a must-do for anyone visiting Hoi An!
