Real Vietnam - Get away from the tourist areas of town and see the real Nha Trang. From the market to the cooking class the tour exceeded our high expectations.

The Best Cooking Ckass in Nha Trang - Chef Dat truly loves teaching tourists about his culur and cooking traditions. . He is an excellent teacher.He has many years of experience in cooking and teaching cooking. He is kind and answered all of questions. He asked us all what we wanted to learn to make. This does not usually happen in a cooking class. He took us to the neat, fish, Vegetable and fruits market and showed us produce and different proteins that the Vietnamese use in their traditional dishes. I highly recommend learning from Chef Dat.

Exceptional experience and once in lifetime opportunity. Great views, great food and learn new skills - This cooking class had it all. We started off being picked up, and what a shock it was just two of us so already felt very personal and knew was a good day.
We went to a wet market to pick up our ingredients. So interesting to see all the sellers and different fresh produce. So different to our western country markets.
We saw coconut being processed for oil and milk, how the locals live and work, and finally rice noodles being made and even got to cut some ourselves!!
The cooking class was exceptional. Easy to understand what to do, even for beginner, food was amazing, and plentiful. Very fulfilling knowing we did it all ourselves! Would recommend to anybody in a heart beat.

He really explained everything well and knows a lot about the ingrediance of the dishes we made.
He changed the menu on request very spontaneously and the taste was very nice!
We had a wonderful experience with a kind chef.

Amazing Experience! - Fantastic experience with chef Dat. We loved that he showed us around his home village where he grew up letting us see the real Vietnam. We visited a mat weaving factory, a noodle factory, 2 typical Vietnamese homes and stopped at several markets which were full of fresh local produce. Dat purchased the ingredients for the food we were going to make for lunch. We then went to Dat’s beautiful house and he taught us how to cook 3 meals in his wonderful outdoor kitchen. We learned more about Dat and how he started out on his journey of tourism/cooking. Thank you again Dat. We loved the experience, the beautiful food and your great company. We will try to replicate your recipes when we go home.

Amazing Nha Trang Cooking Class - We had a lovely day with Chef Dat. He greeted us at the port, there was some confusion over the start time, but he made every effort to make sure that everyone was able to join. We travelled to a market and then proceeded to his lovely outdoor cooking area where we made three lovely Vietnamese dishes. He ensured that everyone had a chance to participate and then we all had way more to eat than we could have imagined. It was one of our favorite experiences in Vietnam.

Not As Expected - Real confusion over start time of tour - some told 830am whilst we were told 930am.
Too much time spent in village meaning cooking was rushed. Was disappointed that we did not cook our own- some people monopolised the bits we did get to do

not really 5 stars.... - There were apparently not enough participants for the first date, so the organizer canceled. OK, so I booked the next day, my request for pickup from the hotel/time was answered. So today I was in front of my hotel on time... in the end I was standing there like an idiot. It was only my query at 9:14 that triggered an action: without an answer or information, only a chargeback was made. What is missing here is motivation, customer orientation, and even warmth, let the guy do what he wants.... From my point of view, I can only advise against booking here, this kind of behavior is probably symptomatic of the entire event. Yes, and now (!) I can try to plan my day completely anew....
