Mr Hoang's knowledge comes from his childhood helping the family in their farm and growing up in the area. My younger child, 13, really enjoyed the rice de husking and used the machines over and over again. The older one 15, enjoyed the information that was shared. Making us appreciate the ingenuity behind rice at the table. The family's hospitality was so warm and being able to do out own pancakes made the food more delicious! 

Being able to cycle through the quieter lanes in between the padi fields with the breeze blowing was so pleasant despite the hot summer heat. 

It was a well balanced trip, including the crush of bamboo boats in the river as it's the peak of local tourism as well. Just gives insight to the opposite ends of tourism that exist.

Beautiful bike ride from the hotel to the vegetables farm. A sweet lady (81 years old) showed us how to garden with a big smile. We went on to the boat ride which was somewhat touristic but fun to do. Afterwards we went eating/cooking at a family’s home in which we were warmly welcomed and where we had great food.
 Highly recommend it, people in hoian are even more friendly than in the rest of Vietnam we have seen until now.

My wife and I received an escort from our guide Mr Huang.
 First we went to visit local farmers to see how they grew vegetables and rice.
 This was followed by an excursion with the local fishermen.
 These were one of the highlights of our 12-day stay in Vietnam.
 What struck us most was the expertise, and the helpfulness of the amiable Huang. We highly recommend him and this excursion to him.

 A good mix of bike, visits, boat trip, home cooking where Mr Hoang is punctual and knowledgeable.
 Fun and interesting

I enjoyed this tour very much! We started on a rainy day, but it didn't stop us from cycling through the beautiful villages. Mr Hoang is very knowledgeable, as he shared with us a lot about Vietnamese traditions and rural life. The tour had a mix of activities, which was fun and we never got bored. My favorite part was visiting his house and had a lovely lunch with his wife. Highly recommend this tour.
