Quy Nhon Craft Villages Private Day Tour

Binh Dinh province, around Quy Nhon, has villages that each keep a single craft going, and this private day tour visits several of them with an English-speaking guide. It is priced per group of up to two people and lasts about eight hours.

The morning starts with banh it la gai, a sticky rice cake folded into a pyramid shape that the listing links to Champa architecture. You wrap your own and take it home warm. You then walk through the Truong Cuu rice paper village, where rice paper dries in the sun and you can taste crisp toasted rice paper from a wood-fired oven. The Bau Da liquor village comes next, where the listing describes a pouring technique in which the liquor is poured from a height to make a crown of bubbles.

After a traditional lunch, the afternoon goes to the Van Son pottery village. The listing describes a 300-year-old village where potters do not use an electric wheel and invites you to shape your own rustic clay bowl with the guidance of village elders. The last stop is the Go Gang village, known for horse-style hats with ten stages of hand embroidery. The vehicle then takes you back to your hotel.

The price includes the vehicle, entrance fees, one lunch, bottled water and cold towels, the guide, and travel insurance for up to 20,000,000 VND per person per incident. Personal expenses, extra drinks, airfare, additional meals and tips are not included. The tour is not suitable for babies under one year, people over 95 or hearing-impaired people. The listing names a hotel drop-off at the end but does not clearly describe the pickup, so confirm it when you book.

The operator is OK Tour Viet Nam, and the tour is booked through GetYourGuide with free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start. It suits travellers who want hands-on time with local artisans and a break from the coast.
