With Mandy, you get to experience the farming life just outside of Hanoi. Step away from the busy city and discover how local products are grown while learning fascinating insights about traditional cooking. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to see where Hanoi’s food comes from and enjoy the hands-on experience of making authentic local dishes!
This was great. We were picked up as agreed, and drove to the village where the cooking class took place (our host was not Tan, but another super nice guide, with great English). We were a family of 6, and each of us had our own tools, own wok and and cooking area. We started off with a super interesting tour of the various ingredients, tasting it all and learning about how it was used. Then we proceeded to cooking and with some nice helpers (also cleaning up) it ended up great. We did four dishes in total. Probably this was the family highlight of our trip in Vietnam, and definitely in everyone's top 3. After eating we went to see the tunnels - a very interesting insight into the war and how the Americans were out-smarted with low-tech means. Our kids ended up shooting some overpriced bullets (not part of the tour), and loved that part. Overall this was super nice, and a day excursion I would recommend to anyone (our youngest kids were 15, probably min age is 10-12).
We had a great tour with Omar. He was knowledgeable, attentive and personable. He toured us around the many beautiful gardens of Marrakech. Thanks for a great day, Omar!
It is a great cooking experience with a walk trough local farm fields. I strongly recommend.
