Tien was a wonderful tour guide, so willing to share and answer our questions. She was welcomed at all the stops we had, which made us feel special. We particularly enjoyed the rice grinding (eating what we made), crab catching & a nip of 'happy water'.

Totally amazing tour, taking in so much of local life. Travelling in an old jeep was great fun. As we didn't want to do the basket boat again, we asked to go to the pottery village instead - here we were rewarded with an opportunity to watch and do some pottery with locals, then there was rice paper making and eating with an elderly couple, watching mat making, the vegetable village and a fantastic coffee shop stop in the middle of the country. Our guide Tien Tien was excellent, both informative and fun. Excellent half day tour. Thank you.

The best trip! Our tour guid tahn was bloody brilliant, so knowledgeable, chatty, funny, and took some brilliant pictures. We had just come down to Hoi a from Hanoi and wanted to do some real local sight seeing rather than the top spots. We met some fabulous people and really had the best time, if you thinking of booking this tour, do it you won’t regret it!
