The tour was excellent. He provided detailed info in an interesting way and fully engaged the participants. His love for coffee shone through during the session and we were able to create on our own, iconic coffees available in Vietnam. He is a true ambassador for Vietnam’s coffee culture. He also has a nice personality and the banh mi sandwich provided was a good thought to balance the amount of coffee I consumed. I would definitely recommend his tour to anyone who is interested in finding out more about coffee or who just want to spend an afternoon understanding Vietnam’s history and culture

It was an excellent afternoon learning all about Vietnamese coffee, how different brewing methods give different results, and learning how to make 3 different Vietnamese style coffees. Quynh was informative and a really good guide. Thoroughly enjoyable and we learnt a lot!

This experience needs far more reviews, it was excellent. We had a great afternoon with Quynh learning all about the history of coffee in Vietnam, both growing it and the origins of all the different types of drinks (coconut, condensed milk, salt, egg), as well as the brewing methods, and of course we got the opportunity to make and try them all too. It was very interesting to learn so much about Robusta too, this experience provided a whole new perspective on both Robusta and what it means to Vietnam. Quynh was very knowledgeable about all coffee too, not just Robusta, and was happy to answer

I can greatly recommend this activity. The host is incredibly knowledgeable, not only about coffee in Vietnam, but also about coffee in the world. We brewed and tasted incredible Vietnamese coffees while he walked us through the world history of coffee, and how Vietnam links into it. His English is also very good and he was very eager to answer questions, so come with some prepared!
