Half-day SILK CLOTH PRODUCING PROCESS DISCOVERY TOUR from HOI AN (Review from Viator)

Wir hatten eine private Führung, bei der wir sehr viel über die traditionelle Herstellung von Seide erfahren und gelernt haben. Da wir sämtliche anfallenden Tätigkeiten auch selbst ausführen durften, konnten wir viel besser verinnerlichen, wie viel Arbeit und Zeit zur Herstellung dieses außergewöhnlichen Stoffes notwendig ist, was den hohen Preis zumindest zum Teil erklärt.Der Nachmittag war kurzweilig und hochinteressant und das anschließende Essen schmeckte sehr gut.Ein tolles Erlebnis - vielen Dank!

Half-day SILK CLOTH PRODUCING PROCESS DISCOVERY TOUR from HOI AN (Review from Viator)

Please DO go and visit. You’ll be picked up from your hotel...and returned. We got the whole story about silk production and it’s history (even learned a new word:sericulture!) We plucked mulberry leaves and fed them to silkworms and then got to try our hand at unspooling the cocoons and also a bit of weaving (NB: go easy on the loom!) We enjoyed lunch and purchased some silk items - for ourselves and as gifts.Well, well worth the visit.P.S. Our guide was Ha.

Half-day SILK CLOTH PRODUCING PROCESS DISCOVERY TOUR from HOI AN (Review from Viator)

We were picked up from the hotel, given a welcome drink of mulberry juice and then we met our tour guide. The tour guide Thu was so friendly and informative. We were able to feed the silk worms, use the looms and see what is entailed in the silk industry. Originally my husband thought the tour would just be a sales tour however we both found it to be one of the best tours we've done in Vietnam. Very insightful and we would highly recommend. There is an option at the end of the tour to look around the shop but there is no obligation to buy if you don't wish to. After the tour, we were given a small meal and transported back to our hotel. Thu, our guide was fantastic at her job and made our day special.

"We loved it! You should definately spend those few hours and explore this! I had absolutely no idea how silk is produced before and on this tour we not only had a possibillity to see each step of it (from baby worms to final fabric), but we were able to try to do everything by ourselves step by step. Wonderful experience, very interesting and informative - thank you! And a nice english speaking guide as well "
