Overview

Hanoi, the capital city with its rich cultural heritage, is renowned for its traditional craft villages. That's precisely why the Hanoi Craft Village Tour is a unique experience within the city. Amidst the bustling heart of Hanoi, we still sensed the profound traditions and cultural depth of Vietnam's rural villages with this tour. In just one day, we went into the handcrafting world and heard stories of vibrant culture and history. This tour had four villages surrounding Hanoi.

Review from our customers:
“We love Asian culture and had a fantastic time on the Craftsmanship Tour. We explored villages near Hanoi and learned more about Vietnamese culture. We made pottery, carved wood, and saw silk-making up close. We also bought cool handmade stuff. A must-do for culture lovers!”
