Full description

This is a 4.5-hour experience in Hoi An, built around Hoi An and Cam Thanh Eco-Coconut Village. It is run by Vietnam Orange Tours, 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.

Pickup is offered from Điện Dương, Hội An, Da Nang, Hải Châu District, Ngũ Hành Sơn and Sơn Trà; the exact spot and time are agreed with Vietnam Orange Tours once the booking is confirmed, and the option you choose sets whether transport is included.

The price covers Chef-guide, All cooking ingredients, Unlimited mineral water, Lunch and Cam Thanh coconut village entry fee. It does not cover Additional drinks and Personal expenses not mentioned, 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.

Hotel pickup in Hoi An. Vietnam Orange Tours confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Vietnam Orange Tours before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Enjoyed our cooking class (although to note, this is not an exclusively vegan class so the name of this activity is wrong). Kieu was an excellent guide and the food was delicious!

We had a great day, the tour was very interesting and we cooked lots of amazing food tailored to all allergies. The boat ride was also a nice way to break up the day.

Es war ein toller Tag, die Bootsfahrt war sehr lustig und der Kochkurs war sehr gut organisiert. Ich habe einen veganen Kochkurs gebucht, allerdings war es dann doch ein traditioneller vietnamesischer Kochkurs, aber ich hab die vegane Variante von jedem Gericht gemacht. Der Guide hat sehr gut darauf geachtet, dass mein Essen vegan bleibt.

Fun activity exploring the market, learning about different fruits, veggies and herbs. The class itself was very informative, covering everything from oil temperature to rice paper production methods. Our chef was friendly and professional, happy to adapt to a vegan alternative menu and the food was delicious.

Die Cooking Class hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Das Essen war sehr lecker, man hat viel gelehrt bekommen und die Frau, die es mit uns gemacht hat alles sehr gut erklärt. Die Korbbootfahrt hat mir allerdings nicht so gut gefallen, da man wirklich nur zwischen anderen Touristen geschwommen ist. Die wurde an einer sehr touristischen Stelle gemacht.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Hotel pickup in Hoi An. Vietnam Orange Tours confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. The collection window is usually a little wider than a fixed minute, because the driver is working a route around several hotels.
The price does not cover additional drinks and personal expenses not mentioned. Everything it does cover is listed in full on this page, so if something is not on that list, budget for it separately.
The Hoi An old town ticket (a small fee that covers five heritage houses or halls) is included when the listing says so; otherwise it is bought at the entrance and the guide explains which houses to use it on. The old town is closed to motorbikes for most of the day, and My Son is best at opening time before the tour buses.
We confirm your booking with the operator before we treat it as final, and we need at least one day's notice. Once it is confirmed you get the meeting point, the time and a contact number for the day. If the operator cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
