Highly recommended!
Review: This was my first time in Vietnam, and attending the agarwood workshop was an unforgettable experience. The workshop not only highlights the incredible work of nature in creating these precious gifts but also showcases the expertise and patience required to carve agarwood into something truly special. After having tea in the tea room, we share for a vegan lunch with the employees. It was like eating with a wonderful group of friends. The care and love reflects in the thoughtful spread and fresh ingredients. Their tofu is the best I have had till date - soft and silky. I would like to make a special mention to Luka, my guide, who was absolutely amazing. He says, I was his first tourist, but you’d never guess it. Luka was punctual, spoke excellent English, and made communication seamless, enhancing the overall experience. If I hadn’t already planned and booked my other activities , I would have definitely arranged them through Uptravels.

Fascinating
I was amazed by the way they do things in the company. From the interior to food and most especially to the way they applied buddism on their everyday life. The agarwood tour is very educational as well and they shared really good information.

Why this scores 62
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Hanoi.
How much does Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting cost?
+
Prices start at $34 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Hanoi usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting take?
+
Plan for about 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 Hanoi is not rushed.
Is Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Hanoi, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting?
+
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 Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting?
+
Around 2 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 Hanoi 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 Hanoi and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Hanoi Agarwood Workshop With Vegan Lunch & Coffee Tasting 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 Hanoi 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 Hanoi?
+
On Outty we rank every Hanoi experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ninh Binh Day Trip from Hanoi with Tam Coc or Trang An & Mua Cave, Ha Giang Loop Tour 4 Days 3 Nights with Ha Giang Vision Tour, Halong Bay Day Tour With Titop Island, Cave, Kayak & Lunch. 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 Hanoi?
+
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 Hanoi?
+
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.
