Highly recommend Tessa K29/07/2025Verified Trang-tastic! Our Deep Dive into Hoi An's Local Life Today's 'Hoi An: Hidden Gems in Countryside Village & River Island Tour' was an absolute highlight! We are so incredibly happy we chose to do this. Our wonderful guide, Trang, was incredibly sweet and knowledgeable, offering fascinating insights into a side of Hoi An we hadn't seen yet, a more rustic and primitive way of life.Our adventure began with a pickup in a charming old Jeep. First stop was the home of an elderly man who makes rice paper by hand. Through gestures and demonstrations, he showed us his craft. We even got to try it ourselves, and of course, taste the fresh results, delicious!Next, we journeyed to a small incense stick workshop. After seeing the intricate process, we were invited to try our hand at making incense, which was another fun, hands-on experience. We also visited a local place where mats are woven, observing this traditional skill.We wrapped up the tour with a fascinating visit to the vegetable village. This was truly enjoyable! We loved smelling and tasting the various fresh herbs, gaining a deeper appreciation for the local produce. This tour provided such an authentic glimpse into the countryside life and culture around Hoi An. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to see beyond the usual tourist spots. sandra w29/07/2025Verified Interesting tour far from mass tourism Thank you for the cool tour, we learned a lot about the life of the locals away from mass tourism.Kha spoke very understandable English and explained a lot to us, thank you, we had a great day!:) Tessa K28/07/2025Verified Highly recommended!

Kha, our guide, was very friendly EN knew a lot to tell in good English. Highly recommended! Elena Guapa25/07/2025Verified A great trip for families with kids Yesterday I was in this wonderful place. I really enjoyed the time with my family and our guide Lahn was great! He took us pictures all along the day and sentito me in the evening. He was very kind and speaks good English. The driver was also great. We decided fir the private tour on the jeep. I higly recommend this experience! You can see many different things: the marble cave, the statues, the manufacturing of marble item (handmade!!), the monkeys and the wonderful statue of lady Buddah. This was what I liked the most and also the place where we saw the most monkeys!! Thanks Mr Lahn for your adduce and suggestions! Darren B25/07/2025Verified Thanh and his crew were very friendly and knowledgeable. We had such a great day. I would recommend Local Buddy Tours for an awesome day out. Elena G24/07/2025Verified Today I had the tour of Monkeys Mountains with my family and Lanh was our guide. It was really a fantastic experience! Lanh explained to us all the details and the history of every single place we visited in a very good English. We have been to water cave first and saw all the statues and the inner part of the cave, then we took the elevator and visited the pagoda and the surroundings. Then we spent some time in a marble carving company. Very nice to see how those wonderful statues were handmade. Lanh advised us also on the shopping. Then we headed to the mountains with a US army old jeep. That was amazing!! We saw many monkeys 😀 and also a lot of bonsai in the garden of the lady Buddha, the last stop. All along the tour Lanh also took pictures of the 3 of us and sent me immediately after, this was so much appreciated by my side! As well as his suggestions for other experiences to try!!I definitely suggest this trip with him as a guide!!
