Hoi An Cooking classes

This was such an amazing experience!! Even though it was SUPER hot, I would absolutely do it again! The cooking class was so much fun, and our teacher, One (I hope I spelled her name right!), was the absolute best. She was super patient, kind, and made the whole experience so enjoyable. We made SO much food and even got to play with fire 🔥😂 Special guests were some adorable puppies, which made it even better! The bamboo boats pick you up right next to the restaurant. The ride starts super peaceful, then you get to the exciting part where everyone starts spinning and it basically turns into a party! The crab fishing wasn’t that interesting to me. I would have rather done the lantern release, but I think I chose the wrong option. If you book, make sure to add the lantern activity! Learn from me lol HIGHLY recommend! Thank you, One!! ❤️

This was very convenient - from hotel transfer to the activity itself. Instructor was very nice and accommodating. It was an engaging experience! Highly recommended especially for those who don't want to be overstimulated with lots of touristy activities.

The instructor was very friendly and bubbly, providing help whenever we needed, never forcing us to do anything we didn’t want to. The food we cooked was extremely delicious, simple and fun to make. The five courses (not including dessert) were simple but paired very well together and I liked that I was able to tweak each dish to my liking (saltiness, spiciness, etc.). The only thing to be careful about is the flambe of the bahn xiao to make it extra crispy as the fire is quite big and the hot oil my spurt but even if you get scared, the instructor takes over for you very quickly and you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to. The coconut boats were very fun, with the opportunity to fish for crabs and spin to oppa gangnam style while wearing vietnamese hats. We went to take the latern boat at sunset and the views were breathtaking as you had the sunset on one end and could watch the river start to light up as the sky darkens. Overall, great experience and extremely worth the price!

We had an amazing time at Leinas' cooking class! if you've got time in Hoi An, please give this a go! she was super friendly, my partner and i were the only ones there so had a cool experience; they shared photos of us cooking after the class too. very fun, very accessible and 4x super yummy meals we can't wait to replicate at home.

Let me add a Chinese review; Chinese people don't deceive Chinese people. This afternoon's itinerary was just for me, but Huong was enthusiastic and friendly throughout the reception and teaching. The driver, the boatman, the coconut boatman, and the lady who gave me a massage were all incredibly friendly. The activities were very rich: I took a boat on the river, rode a coconut boat, and had a super comfortable shoulder, neck, and leg massage (much more comfortable than the one I had last night in Hoi An Ancient Town!). Huong's teaching was also very relaxed and enjoyable, and she even gave me a delicious coconut coffee. Someone helped record videos and take photos throughout the entire process, so the service was very comprehensive and thorough. With hotel pick-up and drop-off included, I really have to praise the rich experience I got for this price! Thank you to the team for diligently hosting even just one person!

Ana Mae (spelling?) and Ruby were great tour guides through the market. Riding through the rice fields on bikes and getting to see water buffalo was a fun way to travel. When we got to the farm, we were able to smell and identify some new herbs that we had not heard of before. Na’s cooking class was so fun and informative. We got to enjoy our delicious food by the river, and it was so peaceful. Ending our day with a quick massage, fresh fruit, and tea was great. Thank you to everyone involved. We had such a great time. We also have some great pictures and videos to memorialize the day.

first we had wander round busy morning food market in Hoi An with our guide Quan. then got a boat to the coconut grove area where we transferred direct into a bamboo round boat for a trip around the coconut trees. it was very peaceful and we didn’t seem to be amongst lots of tourists. the cooking class was great. four courses so make sure you don’t eat big hotel breakfast beforehand like we did! A taxi was organised for our return to our hotel. great value for money.
