Description

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.

Nos ha encantado el recorrido y las paradas en casa de familias que trabajan de forma artesanal, muy muy interesante

A fantastic and very complete experience.
This tour allowed us to discover parts of Hoi An we would probably never have seen otherwise. We met local people, learned how they make a living, discovered traditional activities such as making noodles, and tried several of their products. We also made a beautiful wooden souvenir by carving it ourselves, which was a lot of fun!
Our guide, Thien (Terrence), was fantastic. He supported us throughout the whole experience, making sure we felt comfortable and sharing many interesting stories about his own life and Vietnamese culture. We had lots of fun with him, and the morning simply flew by.
Thank you so much, Thien, for making this experience so enjoyable and memorable. It was a real pleasure meeting you and sharing the morning with you. We highly recommend this tour!

Estuvo genial poder conocer diferentes talleres: hacer esterillas, noodles de arroz, tallar la madera,…
Probamos un café vietnamita muy rico.
La experiencia fue muy agradable. 100% recomendable!
Surprisingly, the best tour I've done in Vietnam! I went there without much expectation, thinking it would be just another tour and I loved it so much! Minh, the guide, was very sweet and attentive. He took care of the group at all times, he was really nice and close. The bike ride was calm and beautiful. And what was most surprising to me was that I thought the stops during the tour would be too touristy and, although they are prepared to teach foreigners, I didn't have the feeling that they wanted just to sell me anything or that it was artificial as has happened to me in other activities. The artisans we met were welcoming and close and it gave the feeling that they really wanted to teach us their art, rather than sell. A 10! I highly recommend it!
