What to expect

  1. Duy Nghia
    1h
    Begin your journey with a visit to a local coffee start-up. Meet the young founder who researched, experimented, and self-built their own unique coffee roasting machines. See how Hoi An coffee is made, taste it fresh, and leave inspired by what one person’s curiosity can do.

    Next, we'll visit a local fish sauce factory to see how simple fish and salt are transformed into Vietnam's signature umami. You'll walk through the process step-by-step. After this, you'll finally get the magic behind Vietnamese food. Every single dipping sauce and noodle bowl will make sense
  2. Kim Bong Carpentry Village
    30m · Admission ticket included
    Visit Kim Bong Carpentry Village
    Its craftsmanship can be seen in the carved details of altars, furniture, and pillars in the ancient houses, pagodas, and temples of Hoi An Old Town.
    Carve your name into a wooden bar and take it home as a souvenir
  3. Cam Kim Island
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Continue to a rice wine and pig farm, where nothing goes to waste. Rice becomes wine, the leftovers feed the pigs, and the farm’s waste becomes cooking gas. Taste 10 flavors of rice wine and see how one family turns a single crop into a full circle of living.

    Finally, roll up your sleeves and make fresh noodles with your hosts. Then sit at their table for Quang noodles you helped make.
