3 hours and 30 minutes
English
Description
1/ Overview
Cam Kim is a quiet rural island with very few tourists — perfect for an easy bicycle ride to see the real countryside of Hoi An.
Enjoy rice paddies, small villages, riverside paths, water buffalo, and everyday local life — with no souvenir sellers along the route.
2/ Tour Itinerary
A gentle ride from Hoi An town to Cam Kim countryside (about 20 minutes).
Kim Bong Carpentry Village: boat workshop + a visit to Huynh Ry’s workshop, where traditional carpentry is still done by hand. Watch local craftsmen at work, then try carving your own name to bring home as a small keepsake.
Local homes experience: learn how locals make rice paper/noodles and weave sleeping mats. Hosts explain step by step, and you’ll get to try it yourself while chatting and hearing local stories.
A relaxing ride back to Hoi An town to finish the tour.

Had a wonderful experience. Visiting local community and hands on experience with mat weaving, wood carving & river paper making. I was impressed that the tour continued with only myself and I was really grateful. My guide was vey informative and I loved hearing about his passion for seafood and dream of opening a restaurant one day.

We had a very great experience with Terrence as a guide. The tour description is very accurate, although it's just a description. With this review i'll vouch that everything we did was worthwhile!
