Detta var en fantastiskt intressant utflykt där vi fick lära oss om hur de tillverkar fiskfållor som användes ute på risfält förr. De visade även hur fällorna användes för att fånga fisk och krabbor. Vi blev bjudna på en riklig lunch tillsammans med en vietnamesisk familj. Det ingick vårrullar, kyckling, nötkött, paté, lök, sallad, risvin och efteråt te och frukt. Vår utflykt fortsatte till en annan stad som specialiserat sig på att göra brun och svart soyasås. Vi fick lära oss vilka ingredienser som användes, tillvägagångssättet och till och med vara med och röra i soyasåsen. Mycket intressan

I went on several tours while in Vietnam. This was the most expensive BY FAR. I thought the high price would mean a great tour. It was terrible. The fish trap “village” was interesting, but not very informative. I had to ask tons of questions to get any information. It was just a courtyard full of fish traps. The soy sauce “village” was just a courtyard full of clay pots. I learned nothing about soy sauce or how to make it. There were no workers there, only our guide, so nobody to even ask questions to. I feel SCAMMED!!!! I would not suggest that anyone take this tour.
