Cam Thanh Village Tours & Excursions

Discover the strong heritage of Vietnamese agriculture on the Hoi An Half Day Agricultural Tour leaving in either the morning or the afternoon for half a day in the verdant countryside around Hoi An. The farms and fisheries around Hoi An were its historic lifeblood, fueling the rapid trade of the port town and the many millions of people who have lived and worked here for generations.The village of Cam Thanh was once an important refuge for people during the American War, but is now an abundant land of rice and nipa palm, creating a scene of unrestricted nature. Flat village roads make perfect conditions for cycling, so we provide bicycles for the most authentic exploration of this wonderful rural enclave. This is followed by a trip to Phuoc Hai, a fishing village where traditional basket boats roam in search of schools of fish and groups of crab. The Day Trip from Hoi An offers you the chance to try the idyllic life of a Vietnamese farmer and fisherman as we work with rice and fish in this unique hands-on experience.

It’s the simplicity of rural life in Vietnam that puts such wide smiles on the faces of farmers and fishermen, living off an abundant land with a philosophy geared towards hard work, community and ultimately, happiness. Get a glimpse of such a life in Central Vietnam on the Hoi An Farming and Fishing Experience, a half-day excursion from Hoi An to some of the picturesque rural enclaves surrounding the town.These kinds of areas are the beating heart of Vietnam, fueling its people with rice, vegetables, fruit, meat, herbs, spices and seafood. They remain steadfast in their use of ancient practices in an ever-modernising world, planting and picking vegetables by hand, tilling rice fields by water buffalo and catching fish by chai nets. The Hoi An Farming and Fishing Experience gives you a chance to try all of these, as well as meeting some of the friendly local farmers and fishermen who will guide you through the processes.
