Itinerary
Begin with a hotel pick-up in Hoi An by your personal driver and guide. Jump on the back of the scooter and leave the crowds behind to discover the hidden charm, stunning landscapes, and everyday rhythms of the local countryside.
Arrive at this 500-year-old historic village. Take a stroll through narrow brick alleys, watch local artisans craft pottery using centuries-old techniques, and try making your own masterpiece.
Ride through scenic rural roads to this lush, centuries-old organic herb village. Meet the local farmers, learn their traditional gardening methods, and experience authentic farm life—either by riding a water buffalo or helping farmers to grow rice in the muddy fields.
Stop at a vibrant local market to see the daily trade of fresh seafood, colorful vegetables, and local spices. Learn about ingredients used in authentic Vietnamese cuisine.
Journey to the peaceful Cam Thanh water coconut forest. Board a traditional basket boat and let local experts paddle you through the quiet, dense palm groves. Watch a basket boat spinning demonstration and learn how to catch crabs. After that get a refreshing local drink (like Vietnamese iced coffee or herbal tea) made by the villagers.
Our driver will take you back to your hotel in Hoi An. That brings us to the end of our tour. Thank you so much for joining our adventure.
