KAS - Excellent trip made so much easier with a guide to follow through the villages and paddy fields. Lots of insights into how the locals live and work.
Easy cycling, leisurely pace.

Don't miss this! - Bicycle about 15 km during early morning hours with Hung - a fantastic tourguide! You'll explore different small handicraft villages where you'll get to participate in pottery making, making sleeping mats, prepare rice noodles and meet local people. In between the villages you'll bike through beautiful and scenes views of rice paddy fields while learning historical facts in a fun manner from Hung. He makes the tour a must-do when in Hoi An! He was more than willing to take photographs for you to keep as a memory of this day. Finish off the tour with a cosy boat trip back to Hoi An and a fantastic lunch at a local restaurant only to be found with a local guide!

Recommended! - Through rice fields and villages around Hoi An we got to bicycle to different places and see and try to make some pottery, sleeping roughs and rice noodles with the locals. Lovely! Our tour guide was the best! Very engaged, always adding details about history and the way people live in Hoi An. He even got us a souvenier from the clay store with our birth year animal! Highly recommend it! We also finished the tour with a delicious meal and coffee!
