What a wonderful way to spend a day. Duy brought such warmth and local knowledge – we felt less like tourists and more like curious guests. The visit to the coconut house was more interesting than I imagined – especially how nothing is wasted! The hand-rowed boat through the canals was slow, quiet, and beautiful. My husband and I both said it was our favorite moment in Vietnam so far. Deeply recommend this tour.
Este tour nos mostró un Vietnam que no se ve en los blogs. Chris fue un guía excelente: natural, relajado, y con mucha información. Me encantó la visita al horno de ladrillos y el taller del coco – incluso probamos vino de coco. El almuerzo fue abundante y sabroso, servido en un entorno encantador. Remar entre cocoteros fue el broche de oro. ¡100% recomendado!
