We attended the Madam Thu farm cooking class and it was a great day! They had arranged the day very well and it was full of nice activities. Riding the bikes around the village and ricefields was really great experience. The cooking class included many tradiotional dishes and they tought us how to make them. Finally we got to enjoy our meal together at the farm. Hannah and other were so kind and helpful all day☺️ Would totally recommend🫶🏽

Highly recommend food tour
The farm-to-table experience was absolutely amazing — highly recommended for anyone wanting to connect with nature and enjoy cooking in a warm, home-style environment.
Hannah, Tuyen and Lisa were fantastic!
Hannah is incredibly helpful in explaining the farming practices at Madame Thu and also captured some beautiful photos of the day!
Lisa is a wonderful chef with a wealth of knowledge about food — you can truly see her passion in everything she does!
Tuyen as farm manager has great knowledge on produce.
Overall had a wholesome day and lots of food with laughs.

Cooking on the country side
This was a perfect day! Riding on the motorbikes exchanging the busy Hue City for the lovely countryside. So nice and quiet. In La Chu Village we visited the local market and the organic farm. Picking our own vegetables needed for the cooking class. We learned how to cook a delicious lunch. Which really was the best I have tasted in Vietnam. A really enjoyable day with meeting nice and friendly people.

Mme Thu amazing tour
What an incredible experience we had with Mme Thu's family. First they pick you up at your hotel. Have some local salty coffee (must try). Then to the market outside of the city with authentic villagers. Then head to Mme Thu's own bio farm where you harvest your fresh herbs and salads! Amazing. And then cooking master class with family. Truelly special with the piano played by the young girl. Food was fantastic, by far the best yet in vietnam. Hospitaly at its best. Must try this !

Peaceful & Authentic Hue Countryside Day
We spent a wonderful day at Madam Thu Farm, exploring the quiet countryside just outside Hue. The experience was simple but meaningful – walking through the farm, learning about local herbs and vegetables, and taking part in a traditional cooking class with friendly hosts.
The farm is peaceful, beautifully set among rice fields, and everything felt natural and welcoming. The lunch was delicious – full of real Hue flavors!
If you're looking for a cultural experience beyond the tourist spots, this is a must-do

A Hidden Gem in the Hue Countryside!
We absolutely loved our time at Madam Thu Farm – it was one of the highlights of our Vietnam trip! Just a short drive from Hue city, the peaceful countryside setting felt like stepping into another world.
We started the day with a warm welcome and herbal tea at the homestay, followed by a gentle walk around the organic farm. The hosts were incredibly kind and explained everything about the herbs, vegetables, and traditional farming techniques – all in great English.
The cooking class was such a joy! We made four delicious Hue dishes (including Bún Bò Huế and bánh nậm) with the guidance of a local chef, all in an open-air kitchen that looked out onto the garden. It was hands-on, relaxed, and a lot of fun – and the best part? Sitting down to enjoy what we cooked with a glass of homemade herbal tea.
We finished the day with a herbal foot soak that was the perfect way to relax before heading back to the city.
Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic, peaceful and delicious experience in Hue. It’s a beautiful way to connect with local life – we left with full hearts and full stomachs!
