Hoi An is beautiful. Yes, it’s beautiful not only because of the ancient old quarter but also the countryside. Only 15 minutes cycling from the city centre, you will be surprised by the beauty of an amazing vegetable farm called Tra Que village. The special thing here is that people just use seaweeds to fertilize the herbs, so they are totally organic. Visiting Tra Que village with our bike tours, you will have an easy ride through the beautiful rice fields watching water buffaloes lounging in the mud during the hot days or glassy rivers going around the village. Moreover, you will have a chance to interact with local people when you experience farming work and making some rice paper. At the end of the tour, a bowl of Pho for lunch is a must 😉 So what are you waiting for?
For Hoi An people, they believe that hanging lanterns in front of their house will bring luck, happiness and wealth to the members’ families in the house. Do you want to make your own awesome handmade souvenir lantern?
Let’s join our Hoi An Lantern Making and Tra Que Bike tour. This tour combines a cycling trip to Tra Que village and a short handmade lantern making class. No skill is required. Just have fun. After completing your products, you say goodbye to the locals and go for lunch.
