This is an interesting way of discovering Hoi An traditional values – a tour called “one day in the life of an old town resident”. It is a delightful and very affordable way to spend the day and learn about the food and culture of the area. The guests don palm-leaf conical hats, go to the fields to hoe land, plant vegetable, water crops and accomplish various other duties. After fulfilling their job, they go to a small kiosk near the field to taste Vietnamese cuisine made of Tra Que vegetable and other specialties. “It was a truly unique experience learning about soil management, crop rotation, fertilizing and the management of pests. The variety of herbs and vegetables was amazing.”
