Explore Vietnam’s quaint everyday country customs on this Farming and Fishing Life Tour. This tour provides an insight into Vietnam’s local farming and fishing communities, as well as its more traditional way of life. Enjoy a true cultural experience which includes bike rides, boat rides and more.
Accompanied at all times by your knowledgeable guide, your adventure begins with a leisurely bicycle tour along country roads. As you whizz past, admire the local Vietnamese rural life at work; make sure to bring a camera with you, for there are sure to be many moments just waiting to be framed: a water buffalo hard at work in a rice field, duck families swimming through a rice farm or farmers immersed in their crops. Say hello to all the friendly passers-by; they are all happy to greet you.
After doing your part of working out for the day, hop onto a Hoi An Eco-tour boat and relish on a relaxing river cruise, along which you can contemplate another facade of country life: fishing. The amazing backdrop is not the only surprise this boat tour offers; you also get the chance to meet and come together with Vietnamese fishermen. Experience yourself first-hand the gratifying activity of net fishing, as you are asked to join the locals in their task. Later learn how to paddle the traditional Vietnamese bamboo basket boat and ride it into the exotic waterways. On this tour you don’t only discover Vietnam, you experience Vietnam.
