Full description

This is a 45-minute experience from Ho Chi Minh City, built around Vietnamese Coffee Workshop - Vuon Chuoi Home. It is run by Cai Chien Co., Ltd., 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 craft classes are taught by practitioners who have usually done the craft for decades, and they teach it properly: calligraphy begins with how to hold the brush and grind the ink; pottery on the wheel produces a cup that is fired and posted to you weeks later; ikebana teaches the three-line structure of a Sogetsu or Ikenobo arrangement; indigo dyeing and washi papermaking are done in the workshops of the towns that specialise in them. Classes run one to three hours, materials are included, and most welcome children with a parent.

The price covers All coffee ingredients for 5 tastings, Traditional phin filter brewing experience, Step-by-step guidance from your local host, Cultural insights and stories about Vietnamese coffee and Small group experience for hands-on learning. It does not cover Transportation to/from the meeting point, Food or drinks not listed in the workshop, Personal expenses and Tips, 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.

416 Nguyễn Đình Chiểu, Bàn Cờ, Hồ Chí Minh, Vietnam. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Cai Chien Co., Ltd. before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Fantastic! I’m not normally a coffee drinker but these were delicious. Van expertly guided us through the process and gave a wonderful background into the history of coffee in Vietnam. His venue is very nice and a shout out to his wife who also assisted. Excellent workshop!

One of my favourite activities that I did in Vietnam! Van welcomes you into his house to teach you about coffee in Vietnam and helps you make it. We made and drank 3 coffees and sampled 2 kinds of coffee. Highly recommend!

Absolutely loved this little family-run coffee workshop! Joseph was so friendly and knowledgeable and made the whole experience really enjoyable. He shared the fascinating history of coffee in Vietnam with us, and we fun learning how to make four different traditional Vietnamese coffees. It was such a lovely, relaxed experience. If you love coffee and want to do something a little different, I would highly recommend this workshop.

We weren’t expecting the activity to be SO GOOD! Van gave us great history on the coffee history in vietnam, we got to smell the different coffees, and had some great hands on experiences blending, tasting and sipping. For those concerned, Van’s English was amazing, and he and his family are the absolute best. We have a new place to bring people to when they visit, and a fun experience to do at home.

The activity was great! It was so unique to be in a local home rather than a touristy coffee shop. Van was very knowledgeable and nice. Him and his wife were so kind, and if you are lucky you can play a game or two with the daughters! Overall, a very intimate time with a local family that I would highly recommend to add to your itinerary!
