Hoi An Workshops

Wonderful and memorable experience! It was one of my best itinerary in my Vietnam trip. They are very warm, and jolly! Very patient in teaching us how to do the steps properly. The coffees we made are really gooood! Hope I’ll be able to make my own close to how it tasted during the class way back home. 🤣 I highly recommend!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. It's a family business where it's a lot of cousins and siblings taking care of attendees. They are very ey kind and take care of everyone at their own speed so you get to take home a beautiful lantern. Bonus star for the play list. ^^

really nice experience! we took our time and spent around 2 hours doing pottery and decorating it! what a nice keepsake from this trip! My daughters and myself enjoyed it so much!

I had a wonderful experience joining the Making Lantern Class with Lantern Boat Trip. The lantern-making workshop was fun, engaging, and easy to follow, even for beginners. The instructor was patient and explained each step clearly, allowing everyone to create their own beautiful handmade lantern. After the class, the lantern boat trip was truly magical. Cruising along the river while admiring the colorful lanterns reflecting on the water created a peaceful and unforgettable atmosphere. The view was especially stunning in the evening when the town lit up with hundreds of glowing lanterns. The combination of a cultural hands-on activity and a relaxing boat ride made this experience unique and memorable. It was a great way to learn about local traditions while enjoying the beauty of the city. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Hoi An, whether you're traveling with family, friends, or as a couple.

A really good experience and thoroughly enjoyable. Learning how to make the 5 versions of the coffee, about their culture and history, was informative. Being able to drink the coffees after making them was 'the best'. All participants loved the workshop and experience. The presenter was engaging and a good teacher. I highly recommend this if you're at all interested in coffee. It was my first time drinking the Egg Coffee. 👌And my favourite is the Coconut Coffee.

I had a 3 hour wood carving beginner session today - started off touring the compound and seeing the beautiful wood structures, seeing the craftsmen at work, before doing the wood carving course. We chose our designs, then the instructors taught us in stages such that we can learn quickly and work on our pieces. Special thanks to Nhut for helping us tremendously through the course. 100% recommend!

Such a unique experience! You start with a welcome drink and then learn about the entire silk-making process. We saw silkworms at different stages and sizes, touched their cocoons and learned about their life cycle and how they are fed. We even got to cut mulberry leaves for them using a traditional tool. The best part is how hands-on the tour is. We tried extracting silk threads from cocoons, operating different machines, winding silk onto wooden spools and even weaving fabric. We could also touch different types of silk and learn why some are softer or thicker than others. The most fascinating was an incredibly complicated traditional weaving machine used to create colourful patterns, which we also got to try! The equipment seems to be there mainly for demonstrations rather than actual production, but that didn’t take away from the experience. The only downside was that our guide’s English was difficult to understand. Overall, very immersive, educational and fun!

i loved this experience, if you are into perfumes and want to take a souvenir back home i would highly recommend! i got to make two perfumes. I was assisted the entire time. They gave suggestions to enhance my perfume without changing the overall fragrance. i loved my experience!

The workshop is fun, informative and the matcha and houjicha are delicious! The highlight of our experience was the employee that helped us, Lyn, she is very kind and knowledgeable. 🍵
