Full description

This is a experience from Ho Chi Minh City, built around Long An Province and Mekong River Delta. It is run by Viet Kolors Tour, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Japanese cooking classes usually build a meal around dashi, the kombu and bonito stock that sits under miso soup, simmered dishes and noodle broths, and then one or two headline dishes: rolled sushi or nigiri, gyoza, tempura, okonomiyaki, or a bento box. Wagashi classes make the seasonal sweets served with tea from sweet bean paste. Most classes run two to three hours in a home kitchen or a small studio, and vegetarian versions replace the bonito with a kombu-shiitake dashi. You eat what you make, and Japanese teachers are precise about technique.

The price covers A/C car, English guide, All entrance fees, Lunch and Kayaking, Biking, Cooking. It does not cover All other services not mentioned in the above program, Tip for tour guide & driver, Personal expenses and Beverages, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Chợ Bến Thành. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Viet Kolors Tour before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Amazing Mekong experience Kayaking through the peaceful canals was the highlight of the trip. The guide was friendly, the activities were fun, and everything was well organized. Highly recommend if you want to explore the local side of the Mekong Delt

Our tour guide Tinh was exceptional, extremely personable and adjusted well to a lot of things that were out of his control which made the trip very enjoyable despite some unfortauntrly circumstances. Trip definitely should be capped at 11 or max 12, GYG advertises as max 12 but we had 13 and it was so crammed in the van which sucked as there was a lot of time in the car.
