    About this experience

    A Complete Sensory Cycle: It is a well-thought-out itinerary that balances activity and rest. You engage your mind learning about organic farming, soothe your body with a traditional herbal foot bath, and satisfy your palate through cooking. True Farm-to-Table Connection: The herbs and ingredients you touch, smell, and learn about in the garden are the exact ones you will use at your cooking station. You get to see the direct link between raw agriculture and iconic local flavors. The Wellness Element: Inserting a foot reflexology session between the farm walk and the cooking class is a thoughtful touch. It transforms a standard culinary class into a rejuvenating countryside retreat, relieving the physical fatigue of traveling. Instead of just offering a cooking class or a spa treatment separately, this tour provides a miniature slice of local life—showing how Vietnamese culture uses the backyard garden for both daily nourishment and natural healing.

    Wonderful return visit to Tra Que Basil Restaurant in Hoi An

    Fabulous food at Tra Que Basil Restaurant on our return visit. We joined the cooking class last year and loved it and returned this year for dinner and to see Van. The food is so fresh, tastes beautiful and the restaurant is lovely with a wonderful selection of traditional meals. We loved coming back and Van and her family have a wonderful Restaurant and cooking school for everyone to enjoy. Thanks so much for your wonderful hospitality 🤩🙏🥂

    Wonderful cooking class

    Did a cooking class here, and it was the most wonderful experience. They were so kind and the food was delicious. Van speaks very good English and communicates very good. Chef Thong guided the cooking very good. They are very nice. Definitely worth a stop 100% recommend.

    Wonderful cooking class experience exceeded expectations

    Amazing cooking experience including delicious passion fruit juice on arrival, walk to the herb and vegetable garden (and helping plant some seedlings), preparing and cooking the most delicious spring rolls and other prawn dish. We then enjoyed all our food along with some delicious chef prepared turmeric chicken and morning glory topped off with banana pancakes!!! What an absolute treat with the best chef Thom and wonderful guide Bau (really hope I’ve spelt correctly). Thank you so much for sharing your time with us. We loved it 10/10

    Great Cooking Class

    Great experience with my wife Tania. Firstly, seeing and getting involved in the family vegetable garden then having a cooking class learning how to cook spring rolls and pancakes. Also enjoyed a delicious chicken dish and ice cream.

    Authentic ( but easily recreated in your country) Cooking Class! DONT miss!

    Our group of 6 ( 19-60+ yo) went on a vegetable gardening tour and cooking class here. We saw and had a chance to use the traditional tools in the quaint vegetable gardens then went back to Basil Restaurant for our cooking class. One of our group is vegan and dishes were adjusted for her. We made crispy spring rolls, and the local specialty rice pancakes. All ingredients were explained and we are confident to be able to recreate at home! More dishes made by chef were offered after we ate our own creations. This tour is a must, go on an empty stomach!

    Response from the operator: Dear our valued customer! We sincerely appreciate your positive feedback. It was our pleasure to serve you, and we’re glad to know you were satisfied. Thank you for choosing us! And can't wait to welcome back you family! With love and care !

    Farmer & cooking class package: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hoi An.

    How much does Farmer & cooking class package cost?

    +

    Prices start at $43 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hoi An usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Farmer & cooking class package take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Hoi An is not rushed.

    Is Farmer & cooking class package worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 22 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hoi An, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Farmer & cooking class package?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Farmer & cooking class package suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Farmer & cooking class package?

    +

    Around 8 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Hoi An can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Hoi An and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Farmer & cooking class package start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Hoi An within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Hoi An?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Hoi An experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include HOI AN Hidden Gems in Rural Villages & River Islands PRIVATE TOUR, Coconut Jungle Eco & Hoi An City Tour With Boat Ride, Cooking Class Hoi An:Local Market, Basket Boat, Fishing & Cooking. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Hoi An?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Hoi An?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
