UNREAL COOKING CLASS/ EXPERIENCE! - Great cultural experience! We were taken through the markets to purchase our fresh produce to then cook with. Along the way our tour guide Mo spoke about different traditional foods in Vietnam and what they are good for. The cooking class was a sensational experience! Mo was so informative and helpful answering any question and helping us make authentic Vietnamese dishes. They were soooo delicious. Can’t wait to make them back home. Thank you Mo!!!!

Fun afternoon and delicious cooking class - I really enjoyed my afternoon spent on this cooking tour. The host Hon was friendly and informative and made the experience a lot of fun. The pick up was smooth and comfortable, the making tour was really to buy the food was interesting and the food we cooked was delicious. The basket boat road was really fun. I took part on my own and though I was the only solo traveller in the group, and was nervous at first, everyone was very friendly and I had a great time.

Great day of exploring, boating and cooking! - My husband and I wanted to do a cooking class on our trip to Vietnam. We picked the tour with market visit, basket boat and then finally a cooking class. Our tour guide/chef Hon was wonderful. He took us on an interesting market tour which was great, collecting ingredients for our class as we went. The basket boat ride was a lot of fun! Everyone was so happy! We then arrived at the spot where we were to cook our dishes. Hon showed us how rice flour and rice milk were made and then went on to show us how to make four different dishes, which were all delicious. Hon was a very good guide and an excellent chef. Thank you.

Cooking class with Trang! Excellent! - Amazing cooking tour! We had Trang and she was brilliant. So much fun. Highly recommend if you are staying in Hoi An! Trang took us to the market and we bought ingredients (they pay for them so no extra cost), and then a little boat tour down the river to our class. Very full at the end so you’ll save money on lunch too. Thank you Trang!
