Amazing expérience with the farmers - We would like to thank the farmers for this amazing expérience we had in Hoi an. We were looking for an activity that last less than an hour and it was perfect. We had the pleasure to discover how they worked and to approach and feed the Buffalo. I highly recommand this experience :)

Amazing Time with Native Water Buffalo Farmers - Had an amazing experience with the farmer and his wife. Had a very short scooter ride with the farmer from The Field Restaurant to his farm. They were kind and very happy individuals. Fun to be with. Note, they only speak Vietnamese. It was nice having my mom with me since she speaks the language. Even without her, I would’ve had a blast! It was fun petting and riding the water buffalo and taking pictures with it. We also got to experience a small glimpse of what it’s like to be a rice farmer! Would highly recommend!
