Itinerary
- Afternoon:
Begin with a scenic drive from Hue to Tam Giang Lagoon - the largest brackish water lagoon system in Southeast Asia. Nestled between sea and mountains, this peaceful expanse is home to long-established fishing villages. Your first stop is a quiet riverside village, where bamboo fences line the paths and time seems to flow with the tide. Step into a fisherman’s stilt house, where he demonstrates how nets are woven and sampans crafted. With a smile, he’ll guide you into his boat for a serene journey across calm waters you’ll always remember.
- Evening:
As the golden light reflects on the water, you’ll pass bamboo fish pens that have supported local livelihoods through the ages. Try age-old fishing methods and keep your catch. Then head to a local vegetable garden where a village family prepares a warm dinner using what you’ve gathered. Under the open sky, with dishes straight from the field and lagoon, your day closes not as a tourist, but as a guest of the land. Return to Hue with a deeper appreciation for resilience, tradition, and connection.
