Cultural day tour to Hanoi's incense and hat villages with lunch

Embark on a cultural journey just outside of Hanoi, to the incense and hat villages in Quảng Phú Cầu, Vietnam.

The incense village is known for its displays of incense sticks drying under the sun, offering many photographic opportunities. Here, you'll have the chance to observe artisans crafting incense by hand, from bamboo cutting to fragrance infusion, continuing a long-standing tradition.

After exploring the incense village, savour a traditional Vietnamese lunch at a local eatery or family residence. Following this, the tour continues to the nearby hat village. This locale showcases Vietnamese conical hats, known as nón lá. Watch as craftsmen transform palm leaves into beautifully handcrafted headwear and engage with them to learn about their techniques.
