Tra Que Village Tours & Excursions

Experience a life outside of the bustling port town of Hoi An on the Hoi An Rural Villages Half Day Cycling Tour. This Hoi An Day Trip takes in the sights, sounds and smells of Hoi An's beautiful surrounds by bicycle as we cycle over bridges and along quaint paths to discover a world away from the town on Hoi An’s many islands. We will find the picture of an idyllic Vietnamese life in three villages that specialize in woodcarving, mat weaving, and vegetable farming respectively.The Hoi An Rural Villages Half Day Cycling Tour offers you a hands-on experience as we become farmers at Tra Nhieu, where our efforts will be rewarded with a traditional foot spa. A cooking class run by a local chef will show us how to create delicious spring rolls and crispy pancakes, while cycling around the wood workshops of Kim Bong and along the riverbanks of Tra Que, shaded with beautiful nipa palm, will show us a simple but very attractive life in the surrounds of Hoi An.

As popular as Hoi An is with tourists, it is still possible to get off the beaten track. The villages, jungles and canals surrounding the town represent bastions of authenticity, where life is lived at a slower pace and the fundamental principles of existence are based on happiness through meaningful work and a connected family life. On the Hoi An Eco Tour, you will get a true feeling for these concepts as we explore Hoi An’s outlying attractions, in the villages of Tra Que and Van Lang as well as the farms, fields and forests that they encompass.The hands-on aspect of the Hoi An Eco Tour is what sets it apart from the rest. We will spend the morning working with farmers to tend to their organic vegetable crop, all the while enjoying views of watery rice paddies that shimmer with the glow of the sun. We cycle along quaint village roads to Van Lang, a fishing community that backs onto the water coconut forest of Bay Mau, where nipa palm and mangrove reign on the banks of waters teeming with fish.You will see the spirit of Vietnamese farming philosophy personified in Mr. Han, our smiling host who will welcome us into his beautiful family home for tea and the chance to create a wonderful lunch of local delicacies and delicious seafood. He, and the farmers and fishermen featured throughout the Hoi An Eco Tour, will surely leave us with a new idea on our own pursuits of happiness.

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. 

Discover two of the biggest highlights of Indochina in the Hoi An to Siem Reap 7-day tour, operated by Incredible Asia Journeys in a bid to show you a mix of culture, history, food and religion across Vietnam and Cambodia.We start in the ancient port town of Hoi An in central Vietnam. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1999, Hoi An was once a bustling and very important stop along the maritime Silk Road connecting China with Europe. The mix of yellow-plaster architecture with hanging lanterns, and quaint wooden bridges over rivers flanked by tropical vegetation sets the tone of Hoi An, a remarkably pretty town where life moves at a languid pace. The Hoi An to Siem Reap 7-day tour spends four days in Hoi An, its neighbouring UNESCO-recognised site of My Son Sanctuary, its nearby nature reserves and the modest handicraft villages that dot its surroundings.Following this, we fly to Siem Reap to visit Angkor Wat, the otherworldly embodiment of Khmer religious beliefs through jaw-dropping architecture. Much of Angkor Wat and the ancient Khmer capital of Angkor Thom are in states of ruin following neglect and active war, but this makes for some of the most ethereal scenes not only in Asia, but surely throughout the world. Along with a thorough exploration of Angkor Wat, the Hoi An to Siem Reap 7-day tour visits the beautiful Tonle Sap Lake and allows time for relaxation in Siem Reap.
