You’ll travel along quiet village roads and shady paths, surrounded by rice fields and green countryside – perfect for unforgettable photos of rural Vietnam. Along the way we’ll stop at local homes to see how people still make traditional rice paper and colorful woven sleeping mats. You’ll be invited to join in, try simple steps of the process, and chat with the families. Next, you’ll experience daily life on the water: ride in a round bamboo basket boat and try several traditional fishing techniques that local fishermen have used for generations.
