Reviews
highly recommended! I learned alot in cooking class and ate alot, but the qr code for recipes was not working and have to move to coconut boat, which I found it a bit boring. Overall, its worth the money!
An experience worth paying for. The founder of the cooking class Whatapps us the day before to check for our hotel name and agreed to pick us up from our hotel even though our hotel was out of the range.The van came promptly to pick us up. They did change the schedule to doing the cooking class first as they said weather was too hot (Our timing was 130pm).They brought us to the wet market and an English-speaking local showed us and bought some of the ingredients we were be using for our cooking class. As they changed the cooking class timing, it meant that we need to eat as 4pm+ instead of having it as our dinner so we were too full (as we had our lunch before going). The cooking class was fun, even though it was very fast.Btw the class was held in a non-aircon place. Then we went for the coconut boat ride which included crab fishing.We then were driven to the Old Town to release the lantern from a boat.Pls find shop no. 114 to get the lanterns (we were not informed of this beforehand)
Our guide was very lovely. we had a great time at cooking class and the coconut ride was unique. The lantern boat ride was beautiful at night.
The food was amazing. and so much of it. I can't wait to take the recipes home to try. The coconut boat ride was alot of fun too.
The coconut boat ride and cooking experience were both good. Our female tour guide not only explained the food culture but also transformed into a chef, teaching us how to make Vietnamese dishes. The transportation arrangements were a bit chaotic; we were constantly split into groups for different attractions. The driver dropped us off outside the ancient town and told us to walk to the boat launch for the lantern release. There were too many people releasing lanterns, and we had to wear life jackets, which made the scene completely unappealing. 😂
