My husband and I absolutely loved this experience! Trading the busy streets for the quiet vegetable gardens of Tra Que was exactly what we needed. The lantern making class was so well organized, and the instructors helped us create stunning silk pieces that made it all the way back to California safely.

Such a perfectly balanced day. We got our hands dirty planting herbs, rode bikes through the most beautiful rice paddies, and then relaxed while crafting. The lunch at the end was delicious, especially the crispy Banh Xeo. Highly recommend this for families.

I am not an artsy person at all, but the local masters were so encouraging during the lantern workshop. I picked a beautiful red silk, and they patiently walked me through the gluing and stretching. The whole tour felt very premium and authentic.

A must-do if you are visiting Hoi An. The electric buggy pick-up from our hotel was super convenient. The guide spoke excellent English and shared so much fascinating history about the local farming techniques. The E-water we tried at the farm was surprisingly refreshing too!

We brought our two kids along, and they had the best time riding the bikes and getting to wear the traditional farming clothes. The lantern crafting kept them fully engaged. It is an amazing way to support local artisans while getting a luxury cultural tour.

Everything from start to finish was handled flawlessly. The transition from farming to cycling to crafting felt incredibly natural. Taking home a handmade souvenir that I actually made myself makes this one of the most memorable tours I have ever taken.
