A day for many nice pictures to take and lots of hands-on to experience.
Join me since I have many surprises to share with you on this tour. We start by bike to some off-the-beaten tracks.
Leaving the bustling busy Hoi An city and riding to the Cam Kim village. You will feel breezing from rice paddies on the biking way, take many pictures of water buffalo but make sure that your camera is full of 100 percent charge.
First, we will visit the rice paper-making house, where you will learn the process of making this stuff by-hand and do it yourself. Stop for a few seconds, smile with locals, and try to say some Vietnamese words.
We’ll say bye and move to the shipbuilding yards and have a look at wooden souvenirs workshops displaying lots of wooden items.
Take one as you like then we move to the shipyard to hear the stories of the past. And last, what you have never ever experienced before, is sleeping mattress weaving – the traditional handicraft still preserved well so far.
Light lunch is included, then transfer back to city by wooden engine boat.
